my 2005 had 121,000 miles on it Saturday (3 days ago) - when it battled with a deer and lost. :( The engine still purred all the way to the repair shop though - where they totalled it out.

It's been now 5 years since I bought my Vibe 2009. Now with 139,000 km. Only 2 payments to do and it'll be completely mine... Still very satisfied.

2004 Vibe, 129,000k. Only a few minor issues, including an electrical issue with the starter, and now with the drivers side automatic door lock not working. But under the hood all is great. Never had a front end alignment, even though its been in 3 different fender benders including a run in with a deer. Still doesn't need one. Just lovin my vibe.

Yep, it's been a cool spring, but this week is supposed to be warm and humid with a lot of rain :(. However, by next weekend (Memorial Day weekend) it's supposed to drop back to the mid to upper 60s which is good because I'm planning on doing full exterior details on both Vibes (clay bar and Mother's 3 Step Ultimate Wax System) and I'd rather not be dripping sweat everywhere :|. So, have you made a decision about whether you'll be going to the meet in Pontiac yet? If you don't, we will definitely need to meet up at some point. I could probably get a few of the other Chicagoland members together so we could have a nice little Chicagoland meet at some point during the summer.

Very recently crossed 150k miles, guess I'll participate in this thread now.

Purchased the car new on in June 2006, and have been tracking the mileage from day one.

Most recent Odometer: 150451
Max MPG: 36.3
Min MPG: 24.3
Lifetime Average MPG: 30.99
Gallon Total: 4850.8
Average Miles per Tank: 350
Max Miles Per Tank: 448
Max Fill Tank: 13.428
Min Fill Tank: 3.111

It's only needed normal maintenance, other than the PCM recall, and the intake manifold gasket.

Edit: a word.

2004 vibe has 153,450 miles and runs great. Looked all over for some one selling a vibe when I bought this one couple months ago and found only three two at dealers and the one I got from private seller. Never saw them running around town but now that I have one they are every where here in Indiana. But no one seems to want to sell them and I can see why. Bought with a lot of miles on it but drives and sounds better than some of the other cars I was looking at that where a lot newer. Very happy with it and hope I can get over 200,000 out of it.

Just passed 112,000 last week. Since I've moved to Chicago my mileage has significantly decreased, but I'll be making the 450 miles trek home next week.

That's awesome! Although, in case you're not yet aware, the odometer will lock up at 299,999 miles.

Yep. Apparently that's just how it was designed. There are tons of threads on here about this topic. You can either get another cluster from a junkyard, etc. or use the trip odometer to keep track of your mileage. I'm curious to see if this goes for the 2009-2010 Vibes as well...

What makes that so amazing to me is that it's not a mechanical odometer, but a digital one. You'd think some minor software tweak would be all that's required to fix that. I'm mystified why it can't be fixed!

Wow... That makes me sad. :( I'll have to make sure that no one touches my odometer after that point.

My 2009 Vibe GT just passed 182,000 miles. I think I might hold the record for the newest Vibe with the most miles...not a record I want :? I do a lot of commuting for my job and for school. Other than an odd rattle coming from the radio area of the dashboard, it's running quite well! (Knocks on wood)

Actually, it sounds like this person has you beat with 200,000+ miles on their 2009 Vibe.
