  • Never Ever!! Judge a car by its shape - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    this car rocks! at first glance it was just another car and i even told my slef "im not getting this car", but when i actually sat in it, i was under a spell and couldnt stop thinking of it..the shape, the comfort, the feel..so i bought it and yes i bought it without even test driving it (am i nuts?!) no not at all. when i received my scion i jumped right in so excited, and then it happened i stepped on the peddle and ziiiiiiiip off i went like i was at "KA BLUE GO-KARTING" as a kid with my parents cheering me on. "go steven go!!"...this scion xb will take u for a ride and surprise you in every way..i never knew how something so simple can be so ...perfect.

  • Love my "mini UPS truck" - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    My 2010 XB has been almost exactly the vehicle that meets my needs. My wifes car is a 2009 Camry SE. Have owned for 2.5 years (19,000 miles). Comfortable, roomy vehicle for around the town driving (I am 62"). Had a problem with comfortable driving position-adding lumbar solved that problem. Fun to drive & handles great-I added sway bar. Lots of power. Cargo capacity tremendous for size vehicle. Wish interior was a bit nicer-no padding on door armrests among other such items.

  • Good people/stuff Hauler - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    I have owned a 2009 Scion Xb for over 2 years and have driven mine for 44,000 miles. It is a good car but not a great car. I bought it for fun to drive, which it is very fun the way mine is equipped, but not a great commuter vehicle. Fit and finish are ok, not as good as other Toyotas and definitely not up to Honda/Subaru like quality. There are some rough plastics and some of the interior design elements are quirky(like the useless drivers armrest). Mine has the TRD lowering springs and 19" TRD alloy wheels which make it look killer. However, as a commuter vehicle it makes the ride extremely harsh. Honda Fit a better choice for a similar price or stretch the budget and get a VW Golf.

  • engine stopped going to vegas - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    I was fairly happy with car until this week. Seats arent comfy, but I can live with it. Driving to Vegas, car all of a sudden comes out of gear, check engine and oil lights come on and I coast to the side of road. I turn it off for a minute, and it starts right up. took to dealer and cleared codes. still in process of what really went wrong. Thought potential buyers might be interested. Have Toyota problems gone to scion ?

    I got this car last week, and I absolutely love it. It is fun to drive, has more storage space than an SUV, and has some of the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in. That being said, it is not perfect. I would prefer more ground clearance, as 5.1 inches is just a little too low for me. I also with that driver armrest and much of the center console was reconfigured.

  • Best of the rest - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    Still have our 2005 Rel 2.0 and love our 2010 xB. 05 model gets 35 mpg on trips so we bought another one. Only one trip so far, into the Smokies for 7 days, avg 31 mpg overall on mountain roads & xways. Car is absolutely the best cross over out there. Smooth, quiet and fuel efficient. Just finished mixed driving of 275 mi and avg 31.6. Very thick comfortable seats too and lots of room for this 6 foot 220 pounder. You just can do any better. We drove Hondas and other Scions. Ford has no hi-mpg crossover and GM quality history precludes any consideration of any model. Chrysler has no quality or mpg in any line.

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE MY SCION!!!!! - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    Seeing is believing. I looked at this car to start and thought no way! Once I sat inside I was sold! There is so much head room, the truck looks small but I could fit so much in there! I sat in the back seat I had way more leg room than mys husbands trailblazer! Its amazing!

  • After two days of ownership - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    It has been only two day of driving my Super White XB. I really like the way it handles. The center gauges are not really a problem. The steering wheel is not telescopic, but the drivers seat has a height adjustment, so there really shouldnt be a problem. The radio plays very well. The A/C is excellent. My only negative comment is it is a little noisy when accelerating, but it has been awhile since I have driven a 4 cylinder vehicle. Overall a great car for the price. Lots of space and very roomy inside. Great vehicle if you have dogs.

  • Most bang for the buck! - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    1. Great car! Better than the 94 Acura Legend GS it replaced. 2. About 29mpg for my daily commute (25 miles through local roads each way). 3. 100% made in Japan. 4. Best value!

  • This box is HUGH. - 2010 Scion XB
    By -

    This scion xb is alot bigger on the inside than people think. I love that box, but a few thoughts of mine. The reverse light can be a safty issue. The seats need to have pockets in the back of them. It needs a 5 or 6 speed transmission on the next model. Well thats all for now enjoy your new ride.
