Default Goodbye Scion crew, the xB has been traded in.

Still part of Toyota crew though lol. Picked up a 2010 Toyota 4Runner Limited on the 11th of this month. Traded in my 06 manual xB (got $6k for it). Man this thing is nice.. so many new technologies and options over my xB, I'm still getting used to the stuff like heated seats, leather, sunroof!!(never had one of these before), keyless start/stop..you don't even need to use the remote to lock/unlock..too much stuff to list. Only bad part is the 15-20mpg compared to the 31 I was getting before. on to the pics:




Rollin on 20's now! that's a first for me too, coming from stock steelie 15's on the xB LOL

know what else is cool..I've noticed people get out of MY way now haha, instead of the lack of respect I got with the xB..it sucks but it's the truth. Could just be a NJ thing, but I would get no respect in my toaster. I'll still miss it though, that thing treated me good.

thanks! yeah quite an upgrade haha. back window still rolls down, even has up/down buttons on the outside that i can press to open/close as long as the remote is in my pocket. haven't had a chance to roll it down yet as my temp. plate/registration is taped to the window

at least it's not yet another Taco, that seems to be the Toyota of choice for scion owners seeking to halve their fuel economy

Yeah I wanted 6500 but in negotiation ended up settling for 6. It was rearended which shows up on the carfax, had a cracked windshield, and tons of rock chips from 90% highway driving on busy highways it's whole life. I might have been able to squeeze more but I was pretty happy with the deal I got and wanted to get out of there.

The only stock parts I have are the header and the lug nut wrench lol. Somebody out there is getting an xb with a pre-installed MMW header haha

why did you get no respect in the box? why does the 4runner get you more respect?
