http://www.ryanbloedow.com/xB/ - I picked it up Thursday night, but today was the first day we've had without rain, so here are the pics!

:p Wow - I really love this car! I love the attention it gets when I drive it around :p

It handles very well, and gas mileage is great (although I won't be able to do any real calculations until after work, tonight). The interior has more passenger room than any vehicle I've ver seen. THe fro t seat can be put all the way back, and I still have up to 6 inches of legroom in the back, and I'm 6'2!!!!! :D It's surprizingly peppy too, faster than my 200sx. :)

Congrats! I've heard only good things about it. It's not really my style, but I'm going to be thinking about getting a Scion tC when it comes out this summer :)

Looks like a great road trip car. The styling is not quite my taste, but its still a cool vehicle.

And stick too!

WEll, I haven't submitted my application yet - I haven't decided. I was originally going to go with the winner of my contest "OMGHI2U" but I don't know :) The winners still got their money, though it's in transit now :)

Congrats, you own the ugliest minivan I've ever seen. ;) Having a distinctive-looking car is fun though. And having a new car is exciting too. Enjoy!

It looks kind of cool, but I doubt the highway mileage is that good with the aerodynamics of a house!

I'm still not quite sure what it's supposed to be....

At first, I thought, oh look, someone put wheels on a crisper box, how cute.... But it didn't think it warranted all the exclamation marks... :D

Looks , umm... boxy... like an Element...

i can't imagine that anybody would look at a driver of one of those and wonder anything other than "why oh why would anybody but such a POS"

Congrats. I'm was surprised when I read what it's highway mpg is:Q

That is one industrial looking rig. Forget the wheels, just put a Mack Truck bull dog
on the hood:D
