I hate to say it but the ones concerning the xB being fast.... ...WTF? There is no way they can market it as being even remotely fast. So I guess the one about the interior space gets my vote.

^^^uhhh... it was just for fun...

See, you would say something like,
"The scion xB gets better gas mileage than a solar powered calculator."

Then I would say, "haha. good one."

The scion xB is not chuck norris. In fact, i bet chuck norris would beat you down for appropriating his meme.

Chuck Norris once attempted to roundhouse kick an xB. But Chuck Norris was too amazed by the amazing mpg, interior space, and all around coolness. To this day the xB is the only thing Chuck Norris has shown mercy on.

Nope, not fast at all. But not a bad little road warrior.

We had a road-trip meet last week-end and my little xB (RS2.0 With CAI and header) loped up the hills on SE NM just fine.

The trip was a blast and I highly recommend it to other clubs and dealers around the country if you're trying to build your own Scion community.

The starting of the xB's 1.5 L engine caused Pangea to break apart.

Hey fast is doable if you add the right stuff to the car. I bought mine with a turbocharger, wouldn't have it any other way...cuz I got the need for speed and am poor to boot.
