New here, from San Diego


Hello everyone, I just bought a 08 XB silver 2 days ago. I will be posting and asking questions but I thought Id start here. Need to somehow get my post count up to 10.
I have plans to put 18-20 inch wheels, maybe TRD lowering springs, replace speakers, add amps and subwoofer, probably replace the HU but gonna try to just add amps to the stock pioneer, and I have a spoiler waiting to be installed. I allready added floor mats, I was suprised it didnt come with those! I tried to buy seatcovers but 2 times they didnt fit right. Gotta return the last pair. Any suggestions? I work construction and get really dirty! For now I have a shirt over the back and a towel over the seat.

I own a 97 Silverado which I used to drive to work everyday till now, I take the XB. When I took my Wifes Yaris (07 sedan)to work I really felt the releif in gas, so I went ahead and bought myself a more economical car so the wife can have her car back. The xB isnt as gas friendly as the Yaris is, but is definately better than the $100 I used to use to fill up the truck and go under 300 miles to just dump another $100..

Well now that we all know each other, Imma go post in some other subforum..


Frank

Welcome Aboard, I just got back from SD.

Buy a HU first, the speakers sound good with a good tune, then all you need is to add a amp and sub.

Thanks Pakanky.
Only problem is I really like the stock look and the ipod plug.

Yea, I miss my steering controls. I have the adapter but I haven't had my buddy install it yet.
