Talking 04 TL vs. 04 Scion xB?

Really close one.. It's got the features and sexy styling, dead-on. Just wondering if I'd rather be seen in the xB or the TL - better yet, which one I want to drive.. Hmmm..

We don't have enough versus threads. Flame on.. :tflamer:

No comparions. The Scion uses advanced NO-DROOP headliner technology. You can actually talk to the headliner, including such commands as, "Stop drooping," and "Stay up there, you bastard!"

The Scion also features a radically new anti-rattle technology. When a rattle is detected by the system, the involved plastic parts automatically heat up and fuse together. It's really quite amazing. The TL is a piece of shit by comparison.

"The xB is all about attitude. The question is, how much can you handle?"

Yeah, I agree...the Scion xB makes the TL look like shit...most definately

Scion ROCKS...even though it ranked almost LAST...just above VW, in the J.D. Power and Assoc. '04 Initial Quality report


Ok, back to reality...Toyota, you suck :thefinger

I thought that the anti-rattle feature allowed rattling parts to automatically fall off the vehicle - thereby solving the problem.

That's GM's version of the technology.

just got the iGadget Mod!!!

which is why i just got the INSPECTOR GADGET mod recently installed. when i say "go go gadget sedan" it transforms into the TL and when i say "go go gadget mini van" it transforms into the xB. please be aware you must have the navi version or you can't use the voice command, there is also a button you can push next to the VSA for non-navi models.

you can get this mod through Quimby

You know, as much as I love the xB, I don't think it competes with the DeLorean from Back to the Future. Especially the second model, that ran on garbage.

Sheeet, if I had that car, I'd go back to 1978 and buy Microsoft stock.
