Got my xB
Got back from my long drive from Carson to Phoenix last night with my new xB.
Really enjoyed the six speaker stereo.
A bit of a nervous wreck with LA freeway traffic. Plus I had a bad cold and sore throat so it made the trip rough.
The Thundercloud is really an awesome color. Now that I have the car home I really appreciate the way the light plays off the color and gives the the car a solid quality look.
The ride is pretty crunchy but I expected that from comments on this board. I also discovered when i got home that the tires (when cool) were over inflated by 7 lbs. over the reccomended pressure.
I will see today if it makes a difference in the ride.
I really love this car and can't help but go outside and stare at it....
I also got some of the typical comments when I stopped....such as "Is that a hybrid car?"

Dude, where is queen creek? I am from Douglas. Anyway The vegas crew pulled our stock springs and added goldlines they ride smoother and make the car look awesome. I can get you some if you want to do it. Stay away from audio expreess for an alarm. the price is good, but the quality of install is questionable. I managed one thier stores, I didn't stay long. anyway enjoy the car. Bill

Do the goldline springs lower it? If I can keep the same ground clearance, I would be VERY interested!
