Tomorrow I'll be picking my 08 nautical blue 5-speed can't wait!! Only options I got were the premium radio and floor mats. I'll post pics tomorrow when I pick it up. I'm so glad I waited for the 5-speed, feels so much better imo .

 

Sweetness!! :D

 

So i picked it up just now and driving away like 3 miles away the worst thing could happen.........rock chip in the windshield............ . What bad luck......*SIGH*

 

Congrats

Sorry to hear about the chip though

 

Yeah it really messed up my day.....I guess I'll see if I can get it repaired. If its able to be repaired, will you still see the "shattered" part?

But on the brighter note I'm a new proud owner of an XB

 

Yeah I know your pain man! (cept yours is a little worse!)

I just had my fog lights installed like two weeks after I got mine, and on the way home got slammed by a rock. Luckily, only left a chip and is in no need of repair, but it sure was a downer! Especially it being so new!

 

congrats brah!

 

Welcome to the club

 

welcome aboard!

 

Hey guys maybe I missed it in the manual, but any special method for the "break in" period? How long is it? I've been varying my speeds and i've only reved over 6k once.

Sorry I didn't post any pics yesterday as promised. The whole family wanted to see the new ride

 

i went for a g without going over 4k varying gears and rpm's as much as i could

 

Here's a quick pic of my new ride :D, I'll post more once I start to mod it

 

anyone know if the trd cai, swaybar, & springs can be found cheaper than trdsparks.com? My bro got a price quote with his discount and he can get the CAI for $295, Swaybar $145, & springs for $190. If not then I'll probably get them through him.

 

thats a little cheaper than sparks...like ten less per item or so...

 

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong with the premium hu. I went to the menu for illumination and switched it to blue but when I esc no lighting appears. Tried switching back to orange and now that doesnt work either......

 

contact your dealer. which hu do you have? nav? or pioneer w/ preouts?

 

Sorry guys I figured it out I'm such a . Didn't turn on the headlights thats the reason the radio didn't illuminate. So everything is good now and I'm quite happy 1st tank of gas I averaged a tad over 24mpg (50-50 mixed driving) . Now quite 1st gen xb numbers but hey when you are coming from a truck getting 10mpg I'll take it.

 

Nice color!!! What color wheels are you eventually going to go with, AAG??. I went with black 18's with a machined lip, with my nautical Blue.. jh

 

thanks for the compliment! As far as wheels I don't have a clue yet. I think 18s look pretty good but not sure of the wheel choice. I really like those axis wheels right now. Finally got to wash it for the first time and boy does this color look niiiice when washed.

BTW does anyone know if someone sells window visors that are the entire length of the window (or has a sliding extention). I can't believe how short these things are, it should have had a sliding extention on the visors.

 

Good to see another Dallas xB2 on here. Congrats!
