The Honda Element is a bigger box. It is based on the CR-V. The Scion series are way smaller since they are Echo-based.

Scion xB (Ice Cream Truck) of course. Element is a bit too big for my taste plus the 'tupperware' style is a



I am close to trading my WRX to Scion xB...very tempting

Scion xA

refrain from talking about the POWER, because the people who buy Scion xB only cares about the looks. Plus, Turbo is under development.

so karding,you think toyota winning the Y-generation with its scion lineup?
it just gives me smirks in my face whenever i see the xB(the xA? it's just a souped up echo while the xB.....a classy box?}
and you're right,xB buyers go for the killer looks,not the power. so is your subaru the bad-ass WRX sTi,the evolution fighter?

neither - just not a fan of the box and wheels styling. although if i had to choose i'd go with the element because it's larger and will be a bit more useful...

Personally, I'd go for an Element with the optional AWD system. I find the b-pillarless construction very clever and potientially useful for the stuff I haul.
