Well, DUH!
I realize that Toyota makes Scion. Toyota also makes Lexus, but my friend's Lexus has "Lexus" on its title.
Chrysler makes Dodge too, but find me a Dodge that has "Chrysler" on its title.
I'm going to register my newly bought xB today. The title says "Toyota" and the bill of sale says "Scion". I just hope the DMV doesn't try to make something out of it.
By the way, it should be Murphy's Law, you know, possessive.
FYI:
Toyota owns and operates Lexus and Scion brands and has a majority shareholding stake in Daihatsu and Hino Motors, and minority shareholdings in Fuji Heavy Industries, Isuzu Motors, and Yamaha Motors. The company includes 522 subsidiaries.
Chrysler makes Dodge too, but find me a Dodge that has "Chrysler" on its title.

When the Scion xB/xA first came out we (company I work for) classified the "make" as Toyota and then converted them over to say Scion in 2005. We classify xB's as SUV's too, but I just ran into an insurance policy that has a Cube and we rated that as a passenger car and not SUV. Dont get it. LOL.

The DMV questioned it and I told them it was a Toyota Scion. Since the VINs were the same on the title and the bill of sale, it was okay. However, I've had some bad experiences with the LA DMV. They can be reall _ _ _ H _ _ es.
They are calling it an SUV too.

I've got a good title then... Mine says Scion and it's listed as "Station Wagon". Personally, I wish it would have Toyota and listed as "One-Box" with strange ornate characters of the katakana or kanji alphabet persuasion.

It just shows how much I know about user names, the internet, or anything computer related. This IS a good informative site, but it doesn't compare to my favorite, miata.net forum. The vBulletin format that miata.net uses seems to be much more user-friendly, at least to a burned out baby boomer like me.
Miata.net is also MUCH faster.
I like the xB, but my Mazdaspeed MX-5 is still my favorite. However, they make great stablemates, the Titanium Gray Miata and the Thunder Cloud Gray Scion. Now I need a gray MINI .
