i would strongly discourage you from getting a trailer for it. it is not made for towing it will lead to nothing, but problems

Someone else posted about a hitch before.

Not to flame you or discourage you about getting a hitch but my father was interested in getting an xb and he also wants to be able to tow his bike, but at the auto show in NYC he was talking to owner of the scion dealership that was there, and he said the xB is too low to tow anything and he strongly recommends against it. Also he mentioned, if we were to do it and not listen to him, you would have to cut the back bumper in half and run the hitch to a metal beam under the car because there is none in the bumper and he said to not exceed 1500 pounds.

I dont swear he said it exactly like that but it was along those lines. I just remember my father going... well, no xB for me.

Hope this helps a bit.
