Good to know that I'll die instantly if I come across a maniac who got his drivers license from a cereal box..

@cookie1749 I had an xA as well and mine had them. The only factory-installed option Toyota offers on the xA besides the automatic transmission is a safety package comprising front seat-mounted side airbags and front and rear seat side curtain airbags ($650). The xB didn't even get the option.

@Evilatem I have an Xa it doesnt have side airbags

I still can't figure out why the xA and tC had side curtain air bags and the xB doesn't.

I mean come on, it's got like 3 feet of head space to store the air bag deployment system.

Okay, the designers of Toyota must have been fucking high when they designed this - box! The new one looks better, though.
