They are Revolution RFX's but I believe they are the same as the Schmidt Modernlines.

Got the call today that our Xb is at the dealership:smile:
Have to wait for the certificate of origin
Went thru the same when the MINI was delivered almost two years ago.
May have to go up tomorrow to look at it even if we can't take delivery.

Man, did you strike some nostalgic chords for me! I grew up in and near Asbury Park and used to go to the Circus for onion rings all the time.

BTW, I like your little bread truck, too. Clean design, nice subtle lines.

Thanks for posting the pics and taking me back way too many years.

When we first purchased the Scion last June, I used to frequent Scionlife.com, but it's not as interesting as NAM. Instead, I surfed the forums from Japan and Singapore. :smile: As a result, I ordered many parts from overseas for the car becuase aftermarket parts was so hard to find in the US as Scion was relatively new and "unknown" at the time.

Nice looking xB, cheese. One of the guys at work just got one the same color as Nick T.'s with the optional 18" wheels, and I think your wheel choice looks a hell of a lot better.

The xBs are everywhere here in SoCal

It's becoming so common that I see these things everywhere here in SoCal. Kinda getting boring and just a boxy old van car thing.

Here's my sisters xB. Did anyone see the xB they gave to a kid on Pimp my Ride last night. He originally had an escort that was actually two cars welded together. They said the car was to unsafe to drive so they bought him a new xB and did all this work to it. Must be nice to be given a free car

Update: Still rocking the Scion with no major problems. The boxes that fit in this thing are MUCH bigger than the boxes that fit in the MINI!
