Holy crap. You should contact Scion and let them know. I haven't heard of anyone this high yet. That's freakin 50k/yr. I thought the 62k on my 05 tC was high.

I can't imagine I'm the first...but it speaks loads for the quality of Scion it is great to gas and go! When I bought the box that is what I was hoping to do just drive with no hassles I needed something reliable, reasonable and I loved the xB look....with every mile the Scion addiction has grown and now I can't imagine having gotten just another car instead of the box!

Yes I am putting my turbo setup through its paces for testing purposes on my box. And yes the front end could use some paint!

Here are some of the things that have been changed along the way…
I flushed the coolant system and added water wetter –Sitting in traffic with the AC on while going uphill I saw 225F!
New battery – Old one was getting slow in the winter
New belts – Stopped the squealing AC / Defroster
Many front pads and rotors, the rears are still stock! – Most of it due to stop and go warping the rotors the first set lasted 80,000!
Transmission oil changed along with filter and added a tranny cooler
A few bent rims and more than a few tires!
4 Windshields
haha 4 windshields!!!, did you also cange you timing belt ??
