    2011 Scion XB; I initially saw this car from a distance, thought "there's no way that thing actually pulled that trailer", and believed that it was merely parked in front of the trailer. As I got closer, I realized that it was actually hitched to the trailer!

    This is even more impressive then the time I went to a car show in Delaware almost two years ago, and saw a very tired-looking Lexus RX300 pulling a very large and very sketchy-looking trailer (See pic in first quoted post), as I was leaving the car show!

    On another note, I stopped to fill up at a gas station in 2018 or 2019 and met a guy with a Honda Fit who was pulling an enclosed trailer not much smaller than this one. He said that the car performed surprisingly well towing the trailer, but that he got less than 20 MPG if I remember correctly; I'm guessing that this Scion had similar results...

    Unlike the Lexus that I saw in Delaware back in 2021, this car is definitely not a shitbox and seems to be cared for...

    This 2005 Scion XB is a 2011 SEMA show vehicle with only 27K miles on the clock and has a $30,000 paintjob (note the license plate)!

    The custom paintwork continues under the hood, and a supercharger boosts the engine to 215hp, which this car needs due to the extra weight added by the stereo system and sound deadening material!

    The custom work continues into the interior, and though this car is a trailer queen, it is fully functional. The engine was running and the A/C was on at the time these pictures were taken, and it works great!

    2021 Prius XLE AWD-e; I initially started taking pictures of this car because I thought it was funny that somebody would put a completely stock late model Prius in car show, and because it had the striking white-on-white color combo that I like, but then I walked around the back and realized that it was AWD!

    2005 Lotus Elise; I have taken pictures of a few of these over the years, but I am having trouble locating those pictures. As I said before, I have decided to start posting pictures of US-spec Series 2 cars in this thread because they have a Toyota engine and transmission!
