I got that same offer also. Not in the market for any newer cars for QUITE SOME TIME! Very happy with the Pontiacs we have.

I would agree with most other comments here EXCEPT that this would give me a reason to "blow the dust" off of my Pfaff 545 industrial sewing machine and repair the belt Back in the mid 80's when I modified wheelchairs for special needs folks, seat belts were a requirement and I was introdu...

"She WANTS you . That was a pick up line if I ever heard one She just didn't have the nerve to say "what a cute guy driving that Vibe" so instead she compliments the Vibe. Go for it if it seems worthwhile

WOW, our Vibes are classified as "deadly weapons" Guess we'll need a special permit to use them Well ............... a driver license & insurance might suffice Some people out there REALLY need some help

Nice to see another Ohio Vibe GT on this site If you're going to eventually change out the head unit, check with Michelle "ponta" as she's just about pulled all her RED hair out trying to do a similar mod to her 09 Vibe and has not quite succeeded. Always look here for advise before wastin...

Reading this post initially reminded me of a fellow GenViber (a year ago or so) who did a similar thing to a brother & his family and it DIDN'T work out at all. It sounds like your situation is totally different and I admire your generosity to help your loved ones get back on their feet. It's pr...

Nice NEW ride ................. But what made you get rid of the Vibe only after a couple years of ownership? Hopefully your new ride gives you just as much enjoyment as the Vibe did .... minus a few MPG's

OK, here's the situation. Most of you know I drive my Vibe GT very little due to my work requiring me to drive their vehicle.. Well the past couple of months it sat in the garage and was not even started at all. I finally went to move it and ....."click" "click" you know that dre...

Took a snapshot of the "Spirit" generic station selling it for $3.16 today but left my camera at a job site. At this pace it will be under $3 in a couple weeks

Excellent ideas for us Vibe owners. Don't forget, if possible "Static cling on" type decals are really becoming popular. I have several on my work van and some on the house windows as well. If some of these could be produced as a Cling-on then I'd be interested. Either way, put me down for...

Hello there fellow GenViber and Ohioan. Something is not right about this situation. First off regardless of "abuse, neglect,etc." this should be covered under warranty. Is your Vibe the 2.4L or the 1.8L engine? They will have a different clutch/flywheel setup. My 2009 Vibe is the GT and a...
