Used Scion xB for Sale

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.

My scion xB is a special case in that it is modified to accommodate my wheelchair. An automatic ramp folds out of the trunk hatch and my chair is secured in the back where the back seat used to be. It is a great substitute for a giant minivan, however I do sometimes wish I had more than one passenger seat. Besides the modifications, the car itself is a regular 2005 xB. It has been very reliable, and I keep it regularly checked at a Toyota dealership to avoid any issues. I have still had to replace the catalytic converter, right front wheel bearing, and numerous other things, but most of the time it has been due to normal ware and tear over 10 years. I like its interior, which is very quiet when the engine is off or idle. The large windows all around give a fantastic 360 degree view. The dash has a nice modern design and is located in a convenient central position for the driver, making it very easy to check and read. It has good pickup, but it can slow drastically when driving up a hill. The turning radius is very sharp, needing only 2.5 to 3 lanes to do a U-turn. The square design wasn't my favorite at first, but now I like how unique it is. Overall I would say it is the best choice of vehicles for me out of the limited options I had, given my disability.

The Scion xb is an excellent car. The quality of the vehicle has been outstanding compared to the other vehicles I have owned. After driving the car for over four years, there are no issues with the operating systems for this car. The interior dashboard looks new and is of high quality. However, there is a bit of wear and tear evident in the roof lining material. The sound system of the vehicle is outstanding without adding extra equipment. The balance of the car is equal in all weather conditions. There are no extreme slow starts in the winter. Summer's heat also does not hinder the car's performance. All power features of the car work like new. After owning other sports utility vehicles, I have found that the Scion xb has an equal amount of interior space which often amazes my passengers.
