New owner

Post by flyfishn5 »

So I have had my '09 base vibe for less than 1 month. What a sweet ride. Mine has the power options, no roof and the 1.8. Plenty of power for me. We just completed a 1000K road trip with 5 of us. Great mileage. I had a Delica prior and I was worried I would miss the space. I do miss the space but this little car is winning me over. I will be putting snowies on it so I hope it does well in the snow.

Love this site.

Welcome! Post up some pics of your new Vibe! We like pictures. :D

Yes, these cars sure do grow on you. After driving my Mustang for over 20 years, I drove my son's for a year while he was in college, and ended up buying a Vibe GT for myself. And after mine was totaled, I had to get a third one!
