    Some ordinary classics.

    An original little xB.

    A Ford Five Hundred, the FWD replacement to the Crown Vic. Which was renamed Taurus by a new CEO. Also a Freestyle, the wagon/crossover sibling. Became the Taurus X before a redesign made it the unibody Explorer.
    The diesel model can actually be had with a shorter body, or longer. Is the city version the size of a xB?

    edit: not a vehicle, but did see an old Airstream trailer in on the road.

    Today I saw two remote-controlled miniature Toyota BZ4X model cars being tested on the Olympic athletics field. Some sort of marketing tie-in. I think it's to return the discus after each throw or something like that; we did something similar in Japan 3 years ago for the 202One games.

    Nah it definitely looked longer than the xB, but not by a lot.
