  • I Love my XB - 2006 Scion XB
    By -

    I love my Scion xB. Not only does it perform well and look great, but it does all the things I need it to. We camp a lot and all our gear fits in it and takes us up the mountains with no problems. Its a great little car with a big attitude. Its the best buy Ive ever made. I would buy another one! I wish Scion would come out with a little truck...my husband would love that! It really is the best car Ive ever bought and I love the way people look at it and come up to me in parking lots to ask about it and put their windows down at traffic lights to ask about it...its great!

  • I Love It - 2006 Scion XB

    I love my new Scion xB. Its new, different, fast and tricked out. Try it and youre hooked. Ive added about $7,000 in aftermarket and TRD parts to mine. It beats Hondas hands down.

  • Excellent Automobile Experience - 2006 Scion XB
    By -

    Ive loved this car since day one. The interior cargo room is phenomenal for such a compact auto. Its tremendous gas mileage is a huge plus. Im also impressed with the overall feel of the large windows. They give a great view of the road while minimizing blind spots. Overall, the xB gives you a tight ride.

    I feel like Alice in wonderland...the car looks so small from the outside but once you settle inside and drive, you have more than enough room and the view of the road is like widescreen panaramic scene.

  • The Perfect Vehicle - 2006 Scion XB
    By -

    I saw these cars before, but I thought it was junk - a big box usually means junky, burning of fuel, bad performance and expensive. I never wanted to know about it. A week ago I went to a Toyota dealer looking for a small wagon. They showed me a Scion xA. I got home and did some research about Scion and found the xB. Man, that junky box was exactly my dreamed car! A wagon for moving my stuff, small outside, roomy inside, fantastic MPG, with an incredible low price. It is very easy to rule out all other vehicles: SUVs and vans are too big and too gas hungry; sedans cannot take large stuff; other small wagons (including xA) are too small inside. Nothing else is this perfect.

  • Why 2008 - 2006 Scion XB
    By -

    Why would anyone want a 2008 Xb. I could have bought a new 2008 but I looked for 6 months for a clean, low mileage 2006 because of the better gas mileage, greater headroom and legroom. I own a 2005 Grand Caravan a 1999 Tacoma and the 2006 Scion. The BOX is my favorite and I drive it most of the time. Most things you buy 6 months later you wish you still had your money in your pocket. Not with the Scion, We love it. I think with gas projected to be 4.50 a gallon by midsummer that Toyota screwed up with the new 2008 Scion.

    Although I have only owned this car for two weeks now, I feel confident that I made a fantastic purchase. It handles well, the interior is well thought out, and its "tight as a tick."

  • Take it from me -- Youre Safe! - 2006 Scion XB
    By -

    I just rolled my Scion xb. it rolled onto the drivers side and I climbed out without a scratch! No windows broken, no roof or hood damage, no rear damage. Just point of impact (and its not that bad really) and scratches all along the drivers side since it was laying on that side. This is a safe car, guys, and Im a lucky gal.

  • Coolest Mom Ever - 2006 Scion XB
    By -

    Yes, Ive now been elevated to coolest Mom status ever by by 10 and 14 year old sons. I test drove the car on their recommendation, and basically fell in love with it after the first drive! Why love..because Ive been a van driver for 12 years and am now thrilled to be in such a groovy little car. My husband loved the price, the great gas mileage and the fact that his 62 frame fit comfortably in the car. We had previously test drove even some SUVs which did not compare as far as interior comfort and size. The styling is smart and I love the appearance. The large interior feel of the car doesnt seem to match what appears to be a tiny car from the outside.

  • Love the Box - 2006 Scion XB
    By -

    The Scion xB is the first vehicle Ive had that draws so much attention. It is very fun to drive and I couldnt ask for better gas milage. The power isnt all that great, but I didnt want a race car. It would be better if there was a front dome light and a better armrest. I give it an A+!
