If you see these Yahoo! user reviews, you'll notice several spam ads, along with several great reviews of the new xB that have been blemished with several "not-helpful" inputs. Does someone seriously take that kind of time just to hate like that?

Well, if it's any consolation the "poor" reviews are such obvious vandalism that it's not even amusing. I don't think anyone will be misled. If anything it's probably a groups of idiots spreading hate for their own amusement.

If anything the part that made me chuckle was the fact that all the cars they listed were ones I'd researched and written off when I decided to buy my '08 HTM xB.

One other observation. It's Yahoo Autos. Seriously? Who really uses that as a resource for choosing a vehicle? I think any reputable resource would nuke those reviews as you can see they're fakes by people who never really looked at or drove the xB. I'd think they were idiots regardless the car brand they're bagging.

I used Edmunds, KBB, Vehix, the various manufacturer sites and then started scouring forums like this one for each vehicle I'd narrowed my search to.

Unfortunately this happens when you have a good thing. The haters are afraid and abuse what they do not understand or can not have.

Roll on by and let them it on the side of the road.
