As ^ he ^ said, locked and archived at some point in the future, but not yet - there are still rumors about the 2008's to be covered.

Things like "the xB2s just reached the port" or "my dealer says they will have 2 xB2s next week" or "the xDs have shipped" etc.

Once the 2008's are old news, we can store this all away and focus on the details of now to hotrod tC station wagons and grown up xAs.

OK, destroyed = overboard. It's been like 4ever since any new info has come out.
When it does come out it will be in factual form. MPG Price stats, non of it will be a rumor.
I think we should check out rumor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumor

So when this forum is achived, will a new one pop up for the new xb owners and one for the old?

Well, What's the rumor list on prices or option prices for example?
There are other things besides the look of the model.

Hopefully there will be xB2 forums so the two totally different models can discuss those things specific to the individual models - let's face it the xB and xB2 share only the name. The engine, transmission, wheels, etc. of the xB2 are tC parts, and there isn't one piece of the vehicle - other than name - that is common with the real xB.

If nothing else put the xB2s in with the tCs just like the xAs are in with the xBs since they share so much.

I'm sure Darren will put up new xB2 forums - the question is what do you call the two totally different xB types? Original and Newgen? xB and xB2? Classic and Wannabe? The names have to be something that will keep both groups happy, and not insult either, so *I* am not the one to ask.

I like how things are kept seperate, but there should also be a common area, other than Off Topic, for owners/would be owners to discuss things for Scion in general, not just the specific model forums. For instance, since the xB2 and tC share so much in the way of wheel and FI options, there should be a common hub to discuss them.

Don't Destroy just lock up some of the posts. It would be nice to hear some New Info., but it's seems that no new info. will be available for at 5 to 6 weeks.

This is as bad as the wait on "Heroes" return. Sheesh!!!! Who does the planning on these things.

I think the posts should be moved into a xB2 general discussion area when the xB2 forums are created. Why lock it and archive it?

^^^lol^^^

Following the precedent Darren has already set, the new xB will have its own forum, and should be called "Scion xB 2nd-Gen Owners Lounge" (you might notice we already have a "Scion xB 1st-Gen Owners Lounge")
