Well, I have had mine a week and they are as follows

What is that thing? I say a Scion XB. they say, does XB stand for extra boxey? I say. YES!

Is that a Korean Troop mover? I say, no it is a Scion XB, made by Toyota. Oh, they say, a JAPANESE troop mover.

It is so ugly, it is cute.

Be careful, you might cut yourself on that thing.

Does it have a motor or do you just drive it down wind.

Will it float?

Why do they spell it S C I O N when you don't say the C?

My best so far is when asked what it is, I reply that it is not avaiable yet. I am from the future and it runs on nuclear power like the delorean in "Back to the Future". We are just testing some of them out to make sure they will get us back to the year 2020. I usually leave and hear them mumble something like, "was he serious?"

I am sure that I will have a few to add after my SECOND week of owning my Japanese troop mover!

I guess I need to get out more, I've only had to correct
people from saying Sky-on.

I ask them if they took Sky-enc class in High-School.

If you guys think you have it bad, try owning a Scion in Ontario (cause they dont sell them in Canada).
Just imagine the looks/remarks I get!

Holy crap, you hit the nail on the head!
Yeah.. why is it that the pickup truck drivers are the ones who always comment?
And my submission I heard from a guy at work (with a Ford pickup)..
"It looks like the Gumby mobile!" What? "It looks like the car Gumby drives in."
Gumby never drove a car anyway.. it was him and the damn donkey..

This thread is cracking me up! Since I haven't gotten my xB I really don't have any insults but I told my dad what I was gonna be getting an xB and He told me that I wanted a vehicle that will be a big car when it grows up..... We had a good laugh.

I also told a good buddy that I was gonna be getting one and he said oh you want one of those, it looks like a hummer put in hot water. But he thought the xB was cool though.

I can't wait to get my xB just to hear the comments from people....

Good luck on the xB. Everyone's comments will go away quickly (if they listen) when you show them the inside and tell them you get twice the MPG than their SUV.

So, the neighbor gets out of her husband's mercedes and says "that's the ugliest car i've ever seen"
So I grin and say "Thank You, and it gets 35 MPG doing it, too!"

Ugly is in the mind.

my friend sent this to me couple weeks ago before i got the xB. notice the steering wheel is on the right side?


when i showed my friend the xB for the first time, he got to the front of the car and what it seems to me that he was turning something. so when he open the door and talk to me, he said "i was turning a **** to see did you turned darker..."

during that day, me, my friend, and his mother was in the kitchen and my friend's little brother was in another room playing games. so when my friend push the panic button, the horn goes off. my friend's mom yelled "what was that?" then my friend's little brother (who was still playing his games in another room) yelled "the wind must have blown over the car!"

sad...

Yes, I love it when they say that girls dont like them, I had one guy tell me it was nasty just as a group of girls came out of the mall and started fawning all over it. He seemed to get really ____ed off, and said to the girls something like 'look at my truck, the tires are bigger than his whole car.' One of the girls just looked at him and raised her eyebrow. And just as he was walking away I went up to him and said, "I dont care if the girls dont like it, the guys dig it." He went all pasty, It was like he thought I was going to butt r@pe him or something. HAHAHAHAHaaaaa... oh man it was great.
