Toyota Scion !
 

Saw a new Toyota Scion today in Eugene OR ,have to say it's different. Maybe they are taking Retro back to the 1920s.............

...dude, get with the times. Those are the milk crates of the future--futro?

I think the Scion XB, the little truck/van thing, is kind of cool. My brother is a furniture designer and does interior architecture and I told him he should get one for a company ride. I don't think they have quite enough cargo room, though, and he drives a Dakota V-8 from the last year before the semi looking facelift. He might be a bit too masculine for an XB, but I think they would make good company rigs for small business in need of cargo room, like caterers and so on. We'll see if they sell any of them.

I think most people in my age group think it's ugly. Older people want to look young and cool and buy into the "active" lifestyle marketing.

I saw one drive by the other day. At first I thought someone had taken a Honda Element and turned it into a low rider. Then I got a closer look at it and realized it was a refrigerator box on a skateboard! :eek: That is one unattractive vehicle!
