Xb with a tow hitch! Is this an option?
I don't think we'll be pulling the camper with the box this summer.

No car is designed to be a tow vehicle. Unless you buy a semitractor, towing is an afterthought on them all.
No car is designed to be a discotheque either, but I see a lot of xBs with lights and stereos to make it into one. These too could be considered more dangerous than a stock vehicle.
With a good hitch, prudent loads, and careful driving the Scion can pull a trailer as safely as any other car. To make a blanket pronouncement that "it is dangerous" doesn't really show any independent thought about the situation.
The Curt Hitch here !! Works great !!
Hot water heater, a refrigerator, a roll of carpet........No problem.
Somebody said it here, the word is "responsible towing". They have been towing with little 1 liter cars overseas for longer than most people on this board are old. Only the American car manufactures make us think that we need a 5.7 liter V8 to tow. A boat or something, maybe. But 4 bikes.....The xB will just fine.
