^^^^^^ Ya know.... if you take the F3r... cut out the middle section (make it shorter in length) that would make a perfect xB replacement to me.... http://www.autoblog.com/2006/01/09/t...pin-on-minivan

To all you people who like the mini truck xB, go buy a suzuki x90....

Looks pretty similar to me.

Even available in 4wd, has a 1.6l engine.

Nevermind that Top Gear rated it the worst car of all time.

bigger engine, more mature suspension, and a bit more power of course.

I still think a 2 seat pick up would be a perfect scion addition

FREAKING HOT!

You of course are asking for the Open Deck:

I think it would have sold very well here.........

Do you mean we will be shopping for Camrys or that you think that there will not be a xB? Toyota made an announcement that they thought they would always have a box and thus an xB due to its iconic image that defined the brand.

We're supposed to have moved on a Camry or something... My last ride was an Echo so I wouldn't mind something plusher.

The current xB couldn't go on without side airbags, so certain things have to change.

I believe the Open Deck was based on the 1999-2002 NCP chassis and wasn't carried over to the 2003-2006 version. The Subaru Baja was a flop too, so I don't know how successful it would have been here. I would have liked to try one.

I'd like a new bB. I'd like it waaaay better than the xB2. (I know I'm dreaming, but I can still dream, can't I?) A short version of the f3r might be cool. It somehow manages to look a bit truer to the spirit of the box than the xB2, IMO.
