I found a 2005 Xb scion with 7,000 miles yesterday at my local Honda dealer, I am close to trading in my mini Van, any thougts on the Xb? I will be using for work (I travel about 120 miles a day) and hauling my bikes....
Looking at a XB

Go for it! My mom has one and I've driven it. It's actually super roomy for its size, the front seat has soooo much room. Honestly it's roomier than our Volvo station wagon.
That said, it's a Toyota and therefore will never break. It has a little engine though so I don't know how it would handle big hills with bikes and gear.

I think they are great for the price, with racks and everything they look awesome.
Don't listen to the asshats that whine about the boxy shape. I'd drive one in a heartbeat. They look like they would be a lot of fun to drive. Go for it.
they look sick with a set of rims on them
Oh, snap. :hot: :redhot:
I think a car like that is the perfect metrosexual machine! N8 should get one. 
Go for it. The xB is a great vehicle, tons of room in it, and reasonably fun to drive. Get a 5 speed though.
just figured out it will save me $125 in gas a month, going to get her now...
I brother-in-law bought one last year and he loves it. He installed a hotshot NOS kit to make it a little more peppy and says the gas milage is great.
I saw one at Portland International Raceway a while back that was a demo car from Phoenix Gold. I was blown away by how much room was in there when it looks small.

Uf, but are xBs 4-wheel drive? It seems like their ground clearance is so low you'd have to make sure there's a parking lot where you're biking! Many Honda Elements are.
I checked out The Element, thats why i was at a Honda dealer. but for almost $6500 less it was a great alternative, and yes we actually have paved road in Arkansas........Capt. Jack Sparrow said:
Good choice. I think they are ugly as hell, but I have a couple friends that own one, and they are a very nice ride, especially around town. I have a preference for stick and AWD Subaru, but Toyotas are great cars too. I will never again buy a Honda.MunkeeHucker said:
