SCION
2005 SCION XB
Far superior to expectations,

"I have been making fun of what I call the "Frankenstein Shoe" since they came out a few years ago. When it came time to replace an unreliable used lemon, however, it was the only car that met all of my criteria - current mileage, MPG, amenities, and safety ratings. The test drive was downright fun; the car is stable to drive, yet has a wonderful smooth zip to it. The only downside so far is that the windshield tends to chip easily, but it's a fair trade for the visibility it offers. It's become my favorite car to date, and my family uses it for all our weekend trips these days."

Sold my Audi S4(V8) for a Scion xb,

"Yes it's true I sold my $40k Audi s4 for this baby. With the gas going up and down and who knows for sure what directions it's going, I decided to buy a more efficient car, a used 2005 Scion xb.
This car is not a performance car or anything that I'm used to but it gets me to point A to point B. And in Los Angeles it's always stop and go traffic. I actually love this car, I get 35 mpg in city! I can't believe I drive this thing everywhere and still have gas! So excited that I have this car, it also cut my insurance in half, it's a money saving car. The car has so much room, actually has more head room then my Audi, can you believe that? And parking the car is such an ease and not worry about the car being scratched or anything, it's a $12k car that's a ll I need. Yes, people don't like the design but you know what, who cares, they don't pay your bills so why thank about it. All I know is I'm always passing the gas stations and laughing all the way to the bank! Buy one you'll love it!"
