We took delivery of our new 2008 xB yesterday. Release Series 5.0 - Gold Rush Edition, #1753 of 2500. It's official, we're cool!

Re: 2008 xB owners?
Wife had one since January and loves it. Just got back off vacation to the mountains and got 26.4 MPG average interstate 75-80 mph and up and down steep mountain roads. I did one leg driving 70-75 on the interstate and got 29.6 MPG. Has just over 6K mi on it now and not one problem a'tall. I like the fourth gear super drive that keeps it from surgiing in and out of 5th gear. In D, pull the stick left then down to 3 then up to s4 and there you go. It'll stay there until you stop or move the stick one way or the other.
This is so cool. I set the cruise at 55 in D going down a step grade and the speed went up to 60 mph and the tranny downshifted by itself to 3rd gear to slow it down to 55 where I set it. Hers doesn't have the spoiler, it looks good but a mite much for senior citizens like us to fork out $300. for something we don't really need. But I admit, they are very cool looking. OK, got to grill us a steak to celebrate being home safely so enjoy7 your xB. I have a new 09 Corolla and really like it but I'm plotting how I can steal her xB. ![]() |
