Hey everyone, as one of the newbies around here I feel it's my duty to post some pics of my new wheels. It's a BOP 2006 xB. I ordered it with a 5 speed and no options. Soon I'll be adding some sounds and hopefully cruise control (I like the Rostra RF unit) and remote start/security from Compustar. Here's the link as I don't know if I can post the pics here: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/mfensk...ke99/my_photos

 

congrats ... i bet there aint many xb's in wisconsin

 

I haven't seen a whole lot of them, but I'm the second in my group of friends. Mark

 

How tall are you if you don't mind me asking? You look pretty tall next to the box. I am 6'3" and I am thinking of buying one. I test drove it with no problems. Your thoughts, mfenske?

 

Congrats on the xB. Welcome to SL and enjoy your time here.

 

Yeah, I kinda dwarf the outside of the box at 6'5" but I have tons of room. I actually tried to hit my head on the ceiling of the car this morning but was unable. This is one of the few cars I've ever been in (irregardless of price, size, etc.) that I was able to sit behind myself in. If I can sway you towards the box all the better. Mark

 

Wow 6'5"! My only concern was my knees being close to the dash, but if you can handle it at 6'5", it shouldn't be a problem. Congratulations on your purchase. Thanks for the information/opinion! Chris.

 

happy trails, dude!

 

Welcome to the community.

 

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I will do my best to be an active and helpful member of this community. The install of the stereo starts Tuesday and I'll post pics and updates as they come. Mark

 

Congrats on your box purchase. I'm also from WI and own an xB.

 

Where in Wisconsin are you?

 

According to his profile, it says Wausau.

 

10-4. Right smack dab in the middle of the state. Mark

 

Congrats on the xB but ya coulda waited if you wanted steering wheel controls.

 

Waiting wasn't an option. My 95' Altima was giving me problems, in fact I coasted in to the dealership. Whew! Mark

 

Oh. Well good thing ya went to the dealer!

 

Congrats on the box! Great Christmas present...
What's all that white stuff???

It's funny you mention that. My wife and I were in Houston in November for a cruise and I noticed a lack of snow. How strange. Mark

 

no shortage of that junk in the mountains here...
