Scion XB - best car ever
Scion XB is made by its parent company, Toyota. It is a Toyota engine. One thing I have noticed about Toyota engines is that as long as you stick to the maintenance schedules, your car will run forever. I have owned the car for 11 years now and not had a single problem. The mileage is great. On average, I'm getting 38 mpg in city and around 40 mpg on the highway. It is a 4 cylinder, so it isn't going to win any speed competitions but it has enough get up and go to navigate steep roads in the mountains with no problem.
The Scion XB doesn't look like every other car out there. So on top of having a reliable vehicle, you have a vehicle that you can spot within seconds in any parking lot. I can't tell you how many times I've forgotten where I parked and just looked for the box on wheels. It looks like this little tiny car. You can fit it in any compact parking space with room to spare. It is huge inside! It seats 5 comfortably. And not just 5 small 5 foot tall people. My father is 6ft tall and even with the front seat all the way back, when he sits in the back seat he knees don't touch.

Good Entry-Level Vehicle
The 2005 Scion xB is a front-wheel drive "thing" alternatively classified as a hatchback, subcompact, or station wagon - it is not quite any of these things (though it does qualify as subcompact, the amount of interior room is much greater than any other subcompact). It features a very distinctive, boxy appearance.

Fun, fast, worth the buy!
When I was looking for a new vehicle I spent a couple months doing research off and on, looking for my next buy. I was looking somewhere around the 12-15k mark and not necessarily looking for a new vehicle. My main concern was the long lasting value (mainly looking at Toyota), gas mileage and look/feel. What I found in my Scion xB definitely blew away my expectations. I came from a Jeep Grand Cherokee so I knew that size-wise I would be downsizing, which I wanted due to my desire for better gas mileage. However, when I first test drove the xB I remember thinking, "Wow! This thing has more power than my Jeep did". The torque was a surprising and fun addition that honestly has become a major "make-it" factor for me about my new car. It also has very spacious interior which I didn't think I cared about, but after owning it for a little while, I realized the major "break-it" that can be to me when I ride in other people's cars. But not for me! I can comfortably fit 5 people in my car with plenty of trunk space. The gas mileage turned out to be just average. While I am technically saving money on gas, it still feels like it isn't a highly efficient gas car due to the small tank that needs regular refilling and the only-average MPG which is slightly rare for a car this size.
