Default finally, my xB is in the driveway!!!

yep, just picked up my polar white xB this afternoon...it's been a long wait and it feels great to finally be driving it. kinda rad too cuz i'm the first xB to be on the road in Rochester, NY. too funny w/ all the looks i've been getting, cuz hardly anyone out here has even heard about them, yet alone seen one.

This PT Cruiser was tailing me right after I left the dealership. Oh man, we sure do have big windows, especially the windshield, I like .

All it needs are door guards. The dealership left the one on the driver's side (something I wanted anyway). But I need another one for the right side. I guess head to WalMart?

This is no lie. I have had people ask to sit in my car talking about going for test drives. I had to decline them, but said to just go to the dealer. Yeah, lots of looks for at least 2 months. That is the way it was for me and the xB had already been out for 4 months in CA.

Enjoy!

Got my Cherry xB also today. I had the first one to leave my Scion dealer in Oakdale LI. They gave me a tote bag full of care car items. That was pretty cool, I felt special
