NYC is hard on the xb.....i had a crackedwinshield and a paint chipped drivers side door

 

There aren't a whole lot around here in Redneck (Panhandle) Florida. The ones that are here I see just about every day, since there is only one central artery that connects the city to the beach.

 

when i read that.. your homer avatar came into effect it was the best expression i could picture..

yep i noticed a record 4 in one day.

 

Seems like a vast majority of the xB's I see on the road are delivery trucks or other "company" vehicles, with big logos on the side, etc.

I remember a similar situation in 98 when the VW NB was released. Seems like lots of businesses want to get their name on something noteable and unusual.

I haven't seen a single xA. Maybe they just blend in too well.

 

I see Scion people

 

Yes, quite a few now around here. Run into (not literally) 6 or 8 a day now.

Several of them are being used commercially.

Price of gas here, $2.30.

 

I just returned from a 5 day trip Orlando to Charlotte to Nashville and back to Orlando. Saw a total of ONE other Scion, an xA on I95 at Savanna. She passed me at 80 talking on her cellphone!
I discovered that the xB cruises nicely at 80 but the fuel economy does drop a little. I usually get 33 to 34 mpg on the road at 70 and less. This time it dropped to 30 to 32.
I was pleased how it handled the mountains in NC and TN. Kept up with all but the idiots.

they are multiplying here in cali in big #'s .....i cant count on my hands and toes how many i see in one day now...haha ...and i dont drive a lot...

 

I've had my xB for a month now, and in that time I've seen ONE other xB on the road. Not too many around here. I don't think I've ever seen an xA, and the few tC's I've seen have all been in parking lots - never on the road.

 

I live in South Eastern Ma., near the cape and work in Quincy, Ma.
I see TC's all the time, one xA in quincy that I see on a regular basis and the occasional xb in random places, but yes, I am seeing more of them.

Anyone here park and walk thier dog in Crown Colony, Quincy? Hot Lava xB, substantial drop, wearing stock steelies?

 

I see more also and I think it is because more people are buying them but also now that you own one you are more aware when you see one.

But its cool its not like i know 2 other people with the same black cherry color that i have....

 

Bought my BCP last January, since then there is one the same color 10 miles away in a neighboring town and one in another town 30 miles away which is the main hub around here. All Xb's with, you guessed it BCP. Have not seen a white one, a blue one, a black one, a cammo one, but 3 BCP in a 30 mile radius? Its not fair!

 

i didnt really see them when i didnt have my Scion.....when i was just dreaming about having a Scion i saw one every blue moon. when i got my scion, it was still rare....and when i started lOOking for them (cause id want to honk and highbeam) i started seeing them everywhere

***thanks to everyone who honked back haha

 

could just be some freaky wierd dude who likes dolls

 

Everyday I run into at least 3-5 xBs on the road.

- One on my daily commute to work I sometimes spot a BCP box exiting on San Pablo.

- At my workplace, there is a stock PW box parked on the street everyday.

- The drive home in traffic I sometimes spot one or two boxes.

- I always pass by the Toyota dealership in alameda and there's always a box outside :D

 

My next door neighbor has two xBs, and down the block there are two more xBs. So 5 xBs just on one block.

 

I see more than I use to, but I really do not see that many fixed up.

 

There are a few Scions here on the UNC CHarlotte campus I have seen in the parking garages. Ive seen 2 xB's black and white, 1 white tC, and a silver xA. And course my own black xB.

Ive seen a lot around the rest of Charlotte too. Just hope they dont get as common as honda civics or toyota camrys. The main reason I got an xB was because I wanted to be different and not be part of the sea of sameness. I know thats Saabs marketing tagline, but it works for Scion xB's too.

 

When I first got mine there were none around, now there are tons....

 

Yup, Scions are gonna take over the world.
