Will probably be lame cause production vehicles never end up like their concept designs ie Prius c concept looked sick production looks pathetic! And many other examples but if they could make it close to the concept I would be down for one especially that interior ooh so sexy!

I won't lie, I would trade in my xB for it.

 

[xbowner?]

My guess is they scrapped this truck idea. I've been looking to trade my xB in for a Tacoma crewcab 4x4 but I'm holding out until a redesign. Dunno if it might resemble this Scion pickup but Scion kinda stayed true to the xB concept. Looks like Stingray Metallic too....

Butt ugly and not my taste

That truck thing does not look like anything that would come out of the company that made the xB1. Maybe if they killed the off-roader look a bit with less huge wheels and less jacked up look. You're not going to be hauling anything heavier than we already haul in our xBs with a tiny bed like that. The fold down back is intriguing.

It kind of reminds me of a chopped Nissan Juke with a bed in the back. Yes I agree that the production models rarely look much like the original radical concepts. You can barely make out the resemblance.

I bet it looks better than that... ****...

these commercials make sense if they're tryin to hit the ground running on a truck model

...they're tryin to hit the ground running on a truck model

They could hit the ground running really easy if they did something like this:

(I even kept the wheelbase the same. I'd like to see someone do this to their xB2...) :biggrin:

Is that your design brickpig? Not bad at all.

I should contribute a mockup or 2 in photoshop, that's kind of my thing

You haven't seen this one?

Thanks. Yup my design. I re-used the stock rear window, and the back end of a Toyota pickup truck. To me, this xB-based pickup would be an easy thing for Toyota/Scion to do. Or, as I said on my website, if they would sponsor me and give me a car to work on, I'd do it.

Yup I saw that one, but it's modded like crazy and the wheelbase is stretched. Also the bed inside did not look very usable. My concept uses the existing wheelbase (more agile), would use a conventional truck bed for maximum utility, and keeps mods to a minimum to keep the costs down. Kinda fits better into the Scion cost model, I think.

 

[markio]

I don't think leaving the wheel-base as-is would be realistic though. I think the proportions are off on your concept.

Here's a few others I found online that are interesting, but not realistic for retail

really like this orange one

hoooly **** backward facing seats w/ gunmount yessss

A little bit bigger headlights, a little bit bigger windows, and I think this thing would be perfect. The interior is awesome too. But hey guys! This is what makes a scion a scion, some people love it and some people hate it. That's the beauty of it. I can't wait to see these things on the road!
