Good luck! And at least going to a Scion/Toyota dealership is better than going to an auction at the Post Office to buy a used 1971 Mail jeep, which is where my dad took me when I was 16. I'm not complaining either, cause I sort of liked that jeep. But try taking a girl on a date in a mail jeep with mail racks in it instead of a passenger seat, or backing through the drive-in at the Jack in the box cause the seats on the wrong side......

hmmmm. Oddly enough, that jeep was the same color as my xB, dark blue, and was as easy to park, and shaped about the same. Weird.

Just like waiting for Christmas morning!! I don't think your parents can find a reason not to like the xB, if anything they'll probably want to get one for themselves! Best wishes!!

My power window was broken in my S-10 Blazer for a while, had to do the same thing...got some strange looks from the window worker.

Congrats on getting the Box, you'll love it and the people who drive them. We're all thinking inside the Box.

All you have to do is let her sit in the driver seat and than pull her to the back and open up the trunk and your set.

My mom is a hard person to convince... it's even harder cause my since my '03 Civic has been hit 3 times it's not worth that much anymore (stupid suburbans who can't see me and switch lanes into me... no joke 2 suburbans 1 H2) so she is worried about that as well.. but i'm hoping she likes it enough to look over that...
