Short of it: really really bad rain storm + flooding in area + CAI + hidden dip in road. : ( I still miss that car. The subie doesn't have all the cubbie holes the vibe had. Although the subie is faster overall, it doesn't have the little issues that made the vibe fun to drive. Man, that sucks :cry:!

Welcome to GenVibe! The only major difference between a 09-10 2.4L Base and GT is that the GT has Independent Rear Suspension (IRS). Definitely start a Garage thread for your "new" Vibe to document any mods you do.

Put the winter wheels and tires on both Vibes today.

Speaking of spares, I pulled both of them out to check them. They were both at about 50 PSI, so I upped them to 60 PSI where they're supposed to be.

Coming up this weekend will be a wash, wax and interior detail for both Vibes.
