Very nice article. Congrats Nick. I think the article is accurate; the Vibe is good. With slightly better part suppliers, the car could easily have been placed in the "bullet proof" category. The author should also write a similar article on the first generation 07/08 Honda Fit or early years of the Jazz, which not only is bullet proof and indestructible, but is a blast to drive as long as you don't plan long trips in the car. For long trips, the Vibe is much more comfortable.
Whoooaaa... There I am standing next to Nick !!! This was the Kentucky meet last summer. Nice article. You just never know where your mugshot will end up these days

I read that article on Saturday and had a smile all day long. I have had my Vibe for over two years now and am still happy with the purchase. (BTW - I would put the Tercel in the bullet proof category too)

Tim, I took that pic. Nick approached me the day this was getting published for my permission to use it.
I'm honestly surprised Nick didn't publicize the story here, too?! He's usually pretty good about cross posting things like this. He posted it to the FB group right away. I'm glad someone saw the story and shared it here!
From comments I've read from new members to the FB group, a few sound like they're old school GenVibers that may have drifted away over time.
