My 2005 Scion xB is still going strong. Love that car. It’s not just short but also narrow so I can easily fit in compact parking spaces that many others can’t. Yet it feels huge on the inside. Great car.

I think this is the first positive comment about a Scion ever. I'm glad I was here for this momentous event.

Hah, really? I thought people ate their cars up.

I never met a Scion owner who wasn't happy.

And they wouldn't have been bought by Toyota if it wasn't a good investment.

I thought they were a sub brand that Toyota created, not an acquisition. My xB is actually a Toyota Echo with a different outer body and interior trim.

You are right, I thought it was it's own thing but no it was always part of Toyota.

My buddies 2008 xB has a Corolla engine. Thing is going to llast forever.
