that's the thing about the xB. It catches people's attention no matter their opinion of the box. That means it's a great marketing vechicle.

I hear the advertisers pay the car payment for the owners of the vehicle being used. Not a bad deal if you just use your xB for basic transportation.

It's not a 3" sticker. The companies around here plaster the whole car in vinyl.

its the same thing thats been done to almost every "unique" car, the xB, the VW beetles, the honda elements when they first came out....unique cars catch peoples eyes, so they tend to notice the car driving down the street, essentially seeing the advertisement on it.....its all about marketing ;-)
