not sure this was posted already...did a search nothing came up specifically
has anyone see the article in the current issue of C & D where they first state that the xB/xA and the element are another attempt to get the x and y gen market -- the first attempt being made by pontiac aztek
brief synapse -- they conclude the xB and element are too different from one another (one being urban/hip and the other out-doorsy) and doubt they will be cross shopped.
DUH!!

Yes that was a good article, but not to sound mean or anything, that article is in the lastest Road and Track magazine, and I believe the page number is 110. It doesn't seem to be on line yet. I just got the June issue of Car and driver and let me see here............................... nope defenantly Road and track.
yep, your right its R&T. all american auto mags seem alike after a while ('cept automobile) my bad.

well I bellieve the article was more of if Honda and Toyota were hitting their target market.... even thought the xB almost accelerates as fast as the Element it is not a fare comparison.... honda's element was design for the "outdoor" type of person... and the xb more for the city ones..... let hondas be hondas and Toyos be Toyos.... :wink:

drivin wise we are a tiny bit slower than the element but we do handle .02g's better. and we have more headroom and legroom and better gas mileage, no rubber/plastic seats.
