Hi all!
I'm Susan. I recently traded my Saturn Relay for an '06 xB. I'm just not ready to look like a soccer mom crusing in a minivan.
I've only had the xB for a week, but I am already well on my way to making it my own. So far it's gotten tint, wheels, TYD tail lights, and an intake. There is an axle back sitting in the middle of my kitchen waiting to be installed this weekend. A DVD system (for my 2 kids), sway bar, STB, and headers are in the near future as well.

I live in New Hope and spend a lot of time on the roads in Maple Grove and Plymouth. Hope to meet some of you one of these days!

Welcome. Nice to have another xB owner with kids. Nice rims and the tint looks great too. Who did the tinting for you as this is next on my list?

Thanks for the welcome!

TripDads-xB- The tint was done at Bass Zone on Lake St. Nice work, done fast, and great people. I've got 35% on the front windows and I had 20% put over the factory tint all around the back. The 35% is not legal here, but I had the same tint on my van and I never had any trouble with it.
I got spoiled with my 20% tint when I lived in Florida, so the 50% here just doesn't do it for me.
