Poll Been stuck on a color choice for my Scion XBFor the last 2 and a half weeks I have been spending many hours researching new cars, my two highest priorities in a vehicle was fitting comfortably in it and utility.

I have seen you wear a similar color frequently, and it is a good color for you.

...dangit, can I change my poll answer? The blue is gorgeous, but I realized that I'd seen the red on another car, maybe not that exact shade, but similar. It was stunning in sunlight. So, red from the Max, plz?

The only thing is that...
...well - they does kinda look like a bread-box-van-like from the back.

Having said that - it's a comfy drive, which is worth way more IMHO. You're not getting it to be a sports car - you're getting it for utility and comfort.

I can attest to it rocking at both of those.

I did the 14 hour CA to WA drive once in one of these with two other people - and it was nice.
I can attest to the leg-room and comfort while driving.

In addtion - it is roomy and has hella trunk-space - and - with the non-work-funtime stuff that you've been up to latley that requires equipment (tubs of or otherwise), I am thinking it'll fit your needs really well.

Notably, I said 14 hour, not 16 hour - which is the typical time it'd take with a larger vechichle.

It's still got pep with a moderate to heavy load, and if you're a lead-foot, well, it can move should you want it to.

Ok, maybe it was closer to 15 hours - but - it was still faster than the mini-vans and grand-caravans that we used over the years.

I associate you with 'warm' colors. The whole leo thing. And maybe because you always wore a red scarf thingey with your black coat when I knew you up at WWU. XD

Anyways. You have to go with a reddish color. Definitely.
