| Got a nice black XB this week :) My beloved 94 S10 Blazer (AKA "the red brick") died for the last time over the weekend, and it just needed too much to fix this time, so I took it over to Jones Toyota and traded it in on a new '06 XB, and I absolutely love this little car! I wanted something to get me to work every day without breaking down, get decent gas mileage, and have enough room to haul my R\C gear to the track on race day. This car fits the bill perfectly. I got the 5 speed, and hubcaps for now, but I plan to upgrade the rims real soon. I stumbled across this community here at work, and it looks nice, so I figured I would join up and see what other folks are doing with their XB's. |

| Thanks for the warm welcome. This is my first new car in a very long time, and I know I made the right decision. I love the way it handles, and the funny looks people give me as I drive by lol.  |

| I hear ya there, I see all the pics of the boxes on here, and it makes me want to get going on mine. I found some nice gunmetal rims I like, and cold air intake. Gotta get the center armrest, and the rear bumper protector (mainly to cover the scratch some worthless individual put there with a shopping cart GRRRR) I have big plans, but since I just made that big down payment, it will have to wait until next month  |

I dont really miss my blazer now, but it hasn't snowed yet since I got the box. I got the xB and never looked back! |
