(Full Story Here) It looks intriguing. I wonder what 'packages' the 'service' contracts will be offered in?
Personally I think they should base it on the XB. The form is already there. Just chop it off and make a bed instead. Kinda like going back to their roots with the small trucks of the 70s.
Since the Scion is designed for first-time buyers, there should really be a hybrid. They could call it the xH, and have it use older Prius technology.

But would it cost $12k as a hybrid? I highly doubt it, Scion's whole market is teenagers, and what average teenager can afford a $20k car? I like the truck idea, and they're using the tC engine in it which will make it more popular than the xA or xB.
