I now have about 7000 miles on my xB but I still only average about 28.5 mpg in mixed driving (not a lead foot). Kind of frustrating. Is there any conclusive information out there on whether the cold air intake helps gas mileage?

Anyone have any experience with the aftermarket roof racks? I'd like to get one for our 2005 Xb, but would like to know what others have found in terms of use and noise, etc.

I currently have a 2001 Ford Focus ZTS but I LOVE the Scion xB. I can't decide what to do. After reading this forum for several days, I want the Scion even more, actually put in an order for a 2006 (black cherry) but have until it comes in to change my mind. HELP me. Please.

It all comes down to money and how much you like to spend. A five year old car is not that old. However, there is nothing like the xB.
 
Unless the Ford was in bad shape, I would keep it.

This probably won't help you much, but that won't stop me from sharing my decision making process _ at least the recent ones.
I've passed my last two 'wore out' Sables down to my boys as they turn driving age. Each with over 200,000 miles on them. Because I drive so many miles, the cars have little or no trade value anyway. So they're worth more in my driveway as 'beater' cars. That's not to say I give them cart blanch to abuse the vehicles - but I don't have the concern of the 'fender bender'. That said, my youngest is driving my Reatta quite a bit - that one I DO worry about. Anyway, with the Scion pure pricing philosophy your Focus likely has little trade in value as well. So, if it is a practicaly decision - drive the Ford into the ground. If its an emotional one (nothing wrong with that) get the Scion. I have no regrets with my purchase.

Where in Florida did you purchase your xB? If it's not too far away from me I'll look into the dealership. thanks

I wanted to share my recent Scion purchasing experience. We purchased a Scion xA about three weeks ago and last Monday purchased a Scion xB. We purchased both cars from Lou Fusz Toyota/Scion in Kirkwood, Missouri. We were treated very well. In each case we placed orders and in each case our orders came precisely when our salesman said they would. The pure pricing no-haggle policy was very nice. We traded in a vehicle for our xB and received a very good trade-in price for it. Financing was a snap and we were not given any sort of run-around by the financing people. We have found over the years that the best person to work with when buying and financing is the sales manager and the finance manager at the dealership. We are pleased with both of our Scions.
