I've always liked these. They came out when I was in high school and even though I shit talked it all the time, I secretly liked the vibe but was ashamed of my closeted weeb ways. These days, anything different- anything that catches your eye in a sea of white or silver "crossover SUV" butt plugs on wheels deserves some form of respect just for breaking up the monotony.
Bro Netgear defends himself so hard every time people make jokes about fitting a fridge in the Element, he's like "Yeah no seriously you can do it bro trust me"
A Company I used to work for used these as delivery vehicles. Every time I got in one I was amazed at how much room there was inside them, because they look so small from the outside.😂
There's this kid that lives next door to my workplace with one and watching the kid doing maintenance to it in his gram's backyard is one of the most wholesome things ever, kid also bought a fucking squarebody suburban recently too for some reason.
I got in a head-on collision in my xb, and I'm still but hurt. By far, my favorite car I've ever owned. Definitely not the fastest but reliable. I'm always looking for another.
my mom has owned her xb for longer than i have been alive she has had it for 15 years now, it was an 06 and she bought it used it has never, and i mean never broken down on her and she has been dailying it every day since she got it
7:57 It’s funny hearing Netgear saying that, there’s a road of sketchy car lots in my state. The road is called Cleveland/caldwell Blvd in Caldwell Idaho. There’s multiple car lots on that road and most of them are sketchy lmao. There is a franchise Mazda dealer on that road
I've always liked boxy shit, but I was in my 20s when these came out and I hated on em until I got in one the first time. I could actually fuck wit the first gen. They look good when done right.
I got one of these for my mom because she's 55 and had a hard time getting in and out of her old POS (2001 Saturn SL2). She loves how much space there is inside and how its like stepping into an SUV/Crossover but not so huge. Really nice how all the seats fold down and you can nearly fit a whole mattress inside. It's a 2010 2nd gen with 141k and in the 2 years and 12k miles we've had it all its needed was a battery, alternator and serpentine belt. Putting on a new set of tires and new pads + rotors tomorrow too. Got a full set of 80% tread Michelin pilot sports, already mounted amd balanced, off a BRZ from Marketplace for $200 lol. Thinking of getting the rear roof spoiler, all the riced out ones I see around here have them and it helps balance out the shape. Maybe I'm spoiled by my E38 but driving this thing sounds like a tuna can with all the road noise that comes in and the sound of the doors closing. The throttle is really sensitive too. Only complaints I have though.
It’s been over a decade now but I used to know a guy who made a scion xa into a 2 door hatchback it was pretty clean. The IQ is bad ass with a little boost too.
After a lifetime of driving high maintenance euro tuner cars I have one of these and it's great it never breaks and it's really simple to mod. Especially with a 3d printer you can go nuts on the customization.
As a 1st gen Scion xB owner... I am a drummer that hauls their massive drumset gig to gig (ARCHAEL atmospheric black/deathmetal) lmmfao! The love for my xB has grown (owner since 2013) to the point of naming it the DEATHbX, and then I got bit by the modification bug. Long story short, we're now just about fully gutted with a baby Greddy turbo under the hood because we're now in our track x/auto x phase 🤘💀 📦🔰🐌🏁
Bought an xB that sat in a field for 3 years and shockingly it started and drove 150miles with just putting a battery and gas in it. Only had to replace every suspension component, all the brakes, front and rear bumpers and the exhaust but after it passed inspection without a hiccup, as to why well eastcoast rust. Did a extreme detail on it as the windows were partially open while it sat and it cleaned up great. I bought it just to take the rims for my Sambar (Japanese mini truck [spoiler rims didn't fit]) and I unironically enjoyed driving it around. It was surprisingly fun. I never would have thought to ever own one but aside from the restoration it was a fairly fun time. Still ended up selling it as it wasn't what I would normally drive but for the time I owned it it really was a fun time.
This entire channel is like shop talk but on youtube. If you want another input I would be honored to just in a stream with you all. Keep doing what your doing we all enjoy it and it makes my days much shorter at work.
That guy needs $1500 of weed to come down off all the meth... My friend's brother did his new Tacoma even worse. We referred to it as Skeletor because the fenders and interior had been removed along with any suspension travel so he could race. After my friend rescued it we told people it was a "camera car". If only we'd had a "soon" sticker.
Glad you didn't get shadow banned. 5x memory erasing bullets are expensive! I wish the resident weeb knew about Isuzu Sento. Isuzu is a car brand and Isuzu Sento = 50 Cent. Love the characters in Amagiburi!
The instruments in the center of the dash theoretically allowed your eyes to focus faster between the gauges and the road. The added distance between you and the gauges allegedly makes a difference there.
Used to see first gen XBs fairly often until one day they all magically disappeared off the face of the earth. Based on what I see in this video, it probably has something to do with each subsequent owner being a more avid meth enthusiast than the last. Looks like they quickly became tweaker shuttles after the college kids pawned them off.
When these were not really available in Canada yet we managed to get one on the lot somehow. Mph car so clearly it had come across. Hideously effeminate Purple. I sold it to a guy who was colorblind. He thought it was grey or something idk. We didn't correct him. I do not know if I should lose sleep over that. Good riddance at any rate. I mean, neat car, but not really a mover at the time. Nostalgia has changed the game a bit I think.
Ha the Truckion XB has shown up while I've been scrolling through MP. Not far away - NGL I think it's kind of cool. But I'd rather have an Element any day. I loved mine when I had it, fold those rear seats up and it could haul a lot. Would have kept it but at 220k miles, rebuilt title, multiple large dents... it just wasn't worth putting more money into. Now the damg things seem to be going for absurd prices. X_X
My dad had one of these, it was an 03 automatic, and it was absolutely wonderful, it had so much space and it was so affordable at the time. I am strongly considering one, but I cannot find one in my area under $4K with less than 200K miles
I just recently got a second gen xB and can confirm it's millennial bait. As much room as my little truck had and can hold people and the dog comfortably
I always thought these were clown cars until I owned one. Now I have owned two and I may own two more. Slow slot butt waste space But way more space than whatever makes sense and pretty agile. I like to pretend i'm gonna go kart
Hehe, I bought mine in '06 and the engine still runs great, though I've had to replace a few parts when I crossed 200k a few months ago. I love it. Reliable, roomy and "strangely attractive". But I'm a nerd so you might have a point there.
I hated these things when they first came out, but now I daily a first gen with a five speed. It's a ton of fun. I'm going to import a BB open deck in 2025 when it's legal.
Funny what you say about the old people, I have a Sequoia and an 06 XB and have to drive my upper 80's Mom around .....we never take the Sequoia for the exact reason you stated!!! haha
I own a 2015 lifted Scion xB and I enjoy my vehicle. Owning 2011 xB before 2015 I trade for a brand new one at the time. So owning xB for 13 years. And I would love to own 2 more xB2.5 models. 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
I owned an 06 for 9 years, put 145k on it. Lowest cost of ownership, most practical (for a vehicle of its size) I regretted having to trade it in, but the wife wanted a newer car and the Kia soul was the only similar option and I wasn't going to own a kia. She got a 2016 Corolla...a perfectly good but totally boring car. The high seats, center mounted speedo, rear seat big enough for 3 adults...it was great. I fit a snapper riding mower, dirt bikes, mopeds, 2x8 foot sheets of plywood. I think my wife picked the Corolla just so I couldn't use her car to haul stuff anymore. A 40k miles 1st gen was for sale near me for $9k...I would have bought it if I had the cash. I've owned 30+ vehicles but I owned the xb the longest, put the most miles and it was just a damn good car. Toyota really screwed the formula with the 2nd gen. To big, to rounded, the bigger motor got less mpg.
I had an XA and put 250k miles on it. At the end of its life I pulled a uhaul trailer that weighed more than the car itself from Oregon to North Carolina and still got 27 mpg. I sold it after the trip and 2 weeks later someone t-boned it running a red light. I miss that car the greatest POS you can own.
The second version of the scion was best. The xB I mean. My dad had a 2005 xB in black back in the day and that thing hauled so many people. It also was very reliable. We used to take it on longg road trips
I just bought a 05 xB I went from 24 MPG and got to 35 MPG city, the second gen is based off the Camry, with the 2.4 and the first gen is based off the echo/yaris, has the 1.5
I bought a 2006 one for my first car and it blew up a year later with almost 300k miles on the car. It was fun while it lasted and made me love compact and weird looking cars more, just wish I had it longer :c Edit: Sucked too that it was one of the Metallic Green ones that I loved as a kid seeing.
14:37 Aston Martin, version of the scion IQ has 97 horses and the only differences were the aesthetics interior and some accessories between the Aston Martin and the scion. And I’m getting the horsepower number from Forza motorsport 4
Driving an xB feels like driving a box truck and despite the small engine it gets shit gas mileage. About as slow as the recent Mirages, they have a hard time getting out of their own way like they were designed for short distances around Osaka. It's funny when someone makes it look like a toaster with toast coming out the top.
My entire persian side of my family drives these. Interior is so roomy its kinda nice
as a persian we dont like these little boxy cars
bimmers,peugeots and 6 cyl toyotas(gas is near free here)are most loved ones
Me too bro. Me too

Sounds like a modern-day Mini.
Not the BMW ones, the original Morris/Austin Mini.
You worked for Scion!?! Did you see any release series models!?
Our parts store in town has one of these, all the drivers love it
3:31 also the xb does have a tachometer its in the bottom right corner of the speedometer
My parents bought a brand new first gen in 05, been 1 owner the whole time, it’s got 209,000 miles now still runnin strong
There's this kid that lives next door to my workplace with one and watching the kid doing maintenance to it in his gram's backyard is one of the most wholesome things ever, kid also bought a fucking squarebody suburban recently too for some reason.
I got in a head-on collision in my xb, and I'm still but hurt. By far, my favorite car I've ever owned. Definitely not the fastest but reliable. I'm always looking for another.
That nitro must be the Dylan mulvaney trim package
i just bought one 2 days ago, 216k 5 speed burgundy (my friend is gonna wrap it), for only $3k.... but i think it needs a new clutch and brakes
and of course first gen
Please post a video when finished. Or submit it so they can review it😂😂
He hit 1,000 wins on Nuke with it 🤯🤯🤯🤯
my mom has owned her xb for longer than i have been alive she has had it for 15 years now, it was an 06 and she bought it used it has never, and i mean never broken down on her and she has been dailying it every day since she got it
There is a tach guys. Also first gen is based on the echo, not Corolla. Second is more Corolla based.
the scion XB: if you wanna park in the meet but your there to pick up your kid
(but only every other weekend)
bro one time me and my mom got home from a meet and she saw her xb and wish she had taken it to the meet
The Scion XB is the Ford Flex we have at home
7:57 It’s funny hearing Netgear saying that, there’s a road of sketchy car lots in my state. The road is called Cleveland/caldwell Blvd in Caldwell Idaho. There’s multiple car lots on that road and most of them are sketchy lmao. There is a franchise Mazda dealer on that road

You probably can if you fold the seats down.

The only people I see driving Scions are either old, obvious first buyers from 20 years ago or their 20 year old grandchildren.
2:57 the shifter looks like those little ghosts that kids make and hang from trees
loved the "shake it baby"
oh yah id buy the xb pickup
wonder if you can fit a fridge in the back of there

The cube is doing numbers
Could an XB fit a fridge?
I heard somewhere that a Honda Element can.
Depends the rear seats can fold down so it probably can.
wow can't wait to see a bunch of realistically priced Scion xBs on my favorite youtube channel Collector Car Feed!
Buy one Feed, live the dream
as a teen rn saw this and instantly wanted to put a wrap on it
I go overnight car camping in my first gen XB, yes I sleep in it.
Scion IQ looks like it has a better approach and departure angle than a Wrangler Rubicon.
It would look good with a lift and UTV tires.
Based and Toaster-pilled.
I saw one of these in Saratoga Springs with a shitty widebody, crappy gold wrap and sounded like a fucking Lawn mower
LET'S GOOOO, THE OLD PEOPLE CARRIER, SURELY YOU CAN FIT A FRIDGE INTO ONE!
Probably if you fold your rear seats down.

I want one but it’s so damn hard to find a good condition clean one at a good price. They all clapped out with 300k+ miles
A neighbor down the street owns 3 Xbs. Two 1st gens and a 2nd gen
tC episode needed
Nice, wrap with garage bag.

Usually I hate cars like this, Kia Soul, Nissan Cube etc, but for some reason I can't help but like the first generation Scion XB. I have no idea why.
Netgear likes the 2nd gen because he's shaped like one 💀
Thanks to this video, I went out and bought an Xb to daily.
I just recently got a second gen xB and can confirm it's millennial bait. As much room as my little truck had and can hold people and the dog comfortably
I always thought these were clown cars until I owned one. Now I have owned two and I may own two more. Slow slot butt waste space But way more space than whatever makes sense and pretty agile. I like to pretend i'm gonna go kart
The full sized fridge in an element is my favorite inside joke
Hehe, I bought mine in '06 and the engine still runs great, though I've had to replace a few parts when I crossed 200k a few months ago. I love it. Reliable, roomy and "strangely attractive". But I'm a nerd so you might have a point there.
FYI, In the xBs, they come with a tachometer on a manual and automatic.
The kia soul energy is too strong with these for me to like them
Fun fact the Scion XB Came out before the Kia Soul (The Soul came out in 2010)
Anytime these come by the Toyota dealership it's always fun to work on them. ESPECIALLY the manual versions.
The anime character was sento izuzu from amagi brilliant park, ill take my ban please.
Damn, I thought it was the brunette from HOTD.
I hated these things when they first came out, but now I daily a first gen with a five speed. It's a ton of fun. I'm going to import a BB open deck in 2025 when it's legal.
I learned manual driving in my grandma's Scion xB lol. Good beater for seniors and teens alike
Hauling a fridge joke never gets old😂
It’s everywhere…
If yall like these definitely dont look at their 365hp twin turbski AWD big brother the Ford Flex..
My man said was Turtles now its Corollas all the way down I get that ref.

First gen xb had a tach in the center gauge..bottom right corner of the speedometer, at least on automatics.
I definitely would rock a 1g xB - and the Cube ripped off the bB, not the other way around.
So, what are Logjams?
But can an apartment fridge fit inside?
The second version of the scion was best. The xB I mean. My dad had a 2005 xB in black back in the day and that thing hauled so many people. It also was very reliable. We used to take it on longg road trips

A Toyota selling at a discount due to badge-engineering is always a good deal.
3:30 Well, it comes with a Tachometer, it's just really tiny, and on the right side of the speedo.
I bought a low mileage second gen xB for 10k have been daily driving it for 3 years . Awesome car fits six longboard skateboards in the back .
So an apartment sized fridge is the new CCF standardised unit of measurement
The first blue one that they said had clearly been resprayed...the xb came with an orange peal paint job from the factory
I bought a 2006 one for my first car and it blew up a year later with almost 300k miles on the car.

my cousin has one with mini wheels, his parents bought it new and took amazing care of it. 300k miles still looked new on the inside (he's ruined it)

The first xb is actually based off a matrix and all the manuals came with a tachometer
