My buddy's xB have 347000 miles and counting

2015 scion xB. Using for work, city and highway miles. Regular maintenance done, doesn't need anything else. Roomy and super reliable, hey, it's Toyota !

Best car ever!

Almost perfect. One shortcoming is low gas mileage for this market segment. However the car has lots of spunk and acceleration. Needs a variable or ten speed transmission to improve mileage. Otherwise amazing car.

Its a Toyota, Enough Said!

I used to have a 2005 xB but it was stolen years ago, since then been through a Honda which my daughter now owns and own a 2016 Corolla which is my wifes, I bought a Lexus Is300 and car was just getting too old. Enter 15 years later I was looking for an small SUV and I ran across this gem. 2015 Scion XB in Red with Every TRD option, from the 19" Rims to TRD Exhaust, TRD springs, swaybars, Upgraded alarm with glass break sensors, Upgraded Bespoke Audio with Navigation, Auto Dimming mirror and remote start and optional rear spoiler. Car belonged to a Toyota corporate employee so they packed on the options and as a one owner car it only had 32,000 miles. Wow! Did I mention the car is Red! Took this car on a trip from El paso to San Antonio and from reviews they say gas mileage is so-so, I was actually surprised as this car used almost 3/4 of the 14 gallon tank from el paso to san antonio. Kept it under 75 to 70mph. Lots of room for the kids and plenty of luggage space and with the way this car came setup with all the options it doesnt look like the ordinary xB. Get alot of compliments as the whole car is TRD'd out. Sporty, practical, good looking, great handling, roomy, comfortable seats and Full Pioneer stereo from the factory and did I mention its a Toyota engine under the hood. Win Win. Love this car. If you can find one of these thats well taken care of get it. These cars can last upwards in the 400,000 mile range, seen some with 389,000 miles and I was sold that they are still on the road.
