I too have ordered a K&N air filter and can't wait to install and remove the snorkel and second filter as well!

What was your experience like with your first Scion? Was it so good that you really ended up connecting with the brand?

Scion never interested me until the iM and iA, except for the FR-S.
During that era the xB (as far as I seen it) had more visual appear more than anything, it was just different, a good alternative to what else was on the market. Can't see anyone liking it for anything aside from that, at least not to the point they would be raving about it.

I had a white 2005 Scion xB. I didn't like them at first but altering seeing one laid out on bags i was sold. never bagged mine but had it static lowered. Loved that car put about 200K miles on it before selling it. I was tired of no armrest and no cruise, I know thats probably stupid but as much as I drive it became an issue. I had a lot of money in the car and was involved in two scion specific car clubs. Still partially active in one but have not shown a car in a few years. The iM is drew me back along with the 0% interest, using someone else's money for free is always a bonus. :)

Putting an armrest in my 05 xB was one of the best decisions I did. Cruise bothered me a little, but I am now mostly an in town driver so it doesn't.
It`s weird how they don`t put an armest in some cars never understood why, and usually when this is the case it isn`t an optional item, it`s just not available at all.

I put one in also, it was about 3" to short though. I tried a few things to get it taller and not look stupid but I failed. lol

I drive between Phoenix and Tucson often for work so cruise is a must for me.
