Just got my permanant registration back from the DMV (Ca.) and they have down that my xB is a Toyota. It does not say Scion anyhere on the title. Sure I know it really "is" a Toyota, but the same situation would upset a new Lexus owner even more. Anybody else's registered that way?

This was discusssed way back in the beginning. But I wouldn't do a search as the thread has prolly already been deleted.

So, my old HiLux was designated 'Toy' on the title and registration. I called it 'Toy Truck".

If my xB was so designated, I could call it my 'Toy Box'!!!

Here in Texas, the DMV lists mine as: Make - Toyota, Model - Scion. There is no differentiation for the 3 models. My insurance company list it as: Make - Toyota, Model - Scion xA.

I got pulled over last night cause a cop told me that he was concerned that my plates were stolen because he ran them and they came back as a toyota suv. not quite sure if he just needed a reason to pull me over or he was serious tho

Open up your hood. See that massive Toyota T on your engine?

I prefer the Japanese approach of just calling everything a Toyota. I hate the American mentality, "I can't pay $50,000 for a Toyota!!", same thing on this end with Scion.I like that the bB is a Toyota.
