WELCOME to GenVibeKITT222 wrote:Welcome Tim O! Glad to see you on the forum. Especially since you're also in Minnesota! I'll add you to the list, and look forward to seeing you in Pontiac!
Welcome to GenVibe Tim! Great to see we'll have another 2009 GT owner in attendance in Pontiac! You and I will have to discuss Sunfires while we're there as I've owned two and my mom also owned one. We love Sunfires too !MorbidAngel wrote:Hi Everyone,
I would like to introduce myself.. My Name is Tim, I bought a Red 2009 Vibe GT back last August and been reading the forums since then.
I saw you are going to have a meet on June 15, I think that will be fun so sign me up.. I'll be there !
This is my first Vibe and I have to say it is a fun car to drive, I have not any any problems since I bought it in last year... other then the Minnesota winter of -45 below zero wind chill factor killing my battery lol.
Al though I'm new to Vibe, I'm not new to Pontiac's !! I have had 3 Pontiac Sunfires !! another fun car to dive !
I will see and meet you all in next month !!!
Thanks

I have PM'd Ron, too. Anybody have his contact info? Andrew? It would be great to have him there.tpollauf wrote:Seeing how the reservation deadline is within two weeks ..... I just reserved my room I just wish I had more mods done to my Vibe but have been busy with other things. I should be in much better shape for the 2014 meet
Also I just PM's "areles" Ron, as nobody has heard from him. I believe he would have celebrated his 70th birthday by now so I hope he's still with us. Hopefully he replies to me soon

I will try giving him a call one day this week and see if I can get a hold of him.hotbug1776 wrote:Called Ron at the number given, but there was no answer. It could be that he doesn't know my number.
Anything we can do to push that closer to 100/0? Should I renew my offer of free kittens?A Psycho Martyr wrote:Guys I'm trying, I really am.
I have the opportunity to get my seats done, so I'm taking it.
If I'd DO attend tho, I'll be bunking in das Vibe.
Things are looking up, but it's still about 50/50 at this point.

I think Brandon will make it.KITT222 wrote:

I love it, but I'd rather spend that cash on college... or the Vibe I currently have. It's going to be tough to keep it with me at school, but where there's a will, there's a way. Or a nearby storage facility.tpollauf wrote:I think Brandon will make it.KITT222 wrote:

Say Nick, go an extra $12k laying around ??? viewtopic.php?f=46&t=40904&p=481880#p481880" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
This way you won't have to wait 20-30 years to inherit my Vibe GT
I'm at the Super 8 as well. We'll park close, Vibes run in packs like wolves, or hamsters, or other vicious creatures. LOLMorbidAngel wrote:Thanks everyone for the warm welcome to the forums !!
I will be arriving Friday after noon sometime... maybe I could find the other early people for a "pre-meet"
I will be staying at the Super 8 down the street.
I saw in a post that someone will be handing out goodie bags... I will be bring a bunch of stuff that can be added to those goodie bags for everyone !!
Also, you can't spend a weekend in Illinois with out going to see The Blue Man Group in Chicago !! So Sunday I'm heading up there to see them, with front row seats !!
and if anyone is interested.... they still have lots of seat available. http://www.blueman.com/tickets/chicago/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
See everyone in 37 days !
P.S. I don't have any mods done to my car but will be interested in seeing what everyone else has done to their cars
You mean, roller derby girls? Oh my. Ruffians. LolCAMOGIRL wrote:lol.. vicious creatures.
Speaking of vicious creatures, if my hubby can't make it, I may be bringing a herd of my best girlfriends.
Don't worry, I'm bringing what's left of last years bags as well. LolKITT222 wrote:Yeah, if anyone has any goodies for the bags, please bring them. Time is short (ish) and school needs to wrap up for me Regardless, I'll come up with some ideas, and maybe some trophies and stuff.
Yeah, I guess I forgot it's been a while since I last made that known. I have two different friends in the Vinyl business, one set who usually do my die-cuts, and the other set who design and vinyl racecars for a living, who will be doing my vinyl for the Sonic.KITT222 wrote:You can have vinyls cut!? Why was this not mentioned before? I'd like to get some form of vinyl cut for everyone in the goodies bags, and maybe some other ones as prizes.
I'm at the Super 8 just off I55, it was free after all. LOLtpollauf wrote:Lets not forget the official meet Towel, like we had for last year's 2012 Erie meet. It is still in my Vibe. I'll need a 2013 Pontiac one, and then one from 2014, 2015, etc .....
Also how many different hotels are all of us staying at? I'm @ the Best Western & curious if others are there also. Looking forward to this meet
Great, now I need to come up with some designs...CAMOGIRL wrote:Yeah, I guess I forgot it's been a while since I last made that known.

Also, when it's special requests from me like this, I usually have to jump in and do the dirty work of weeding it out, so I needed to make sure I'd have the time to help them out. Looks like I will.
Nick, get me the design somehow and I will make it happen.
I'll have a microfiber, and a sharpie. Decent?tpollauf wrote:Lets not forget the official meet Towel, like we had for last year's 2012 Erie meet. It is still in my Vibe. I'll need a 2013 Pontiac one, and then one from 2014, 2015, etc .....

Don't stress too much about it, Nick. Something small and simple that everyone can wear til next year, or accumulate as a sort of badge of honor..lol. Words only are fine, even. I like your styling of the original badge on the first page, if you could come up with something a little more compact. I just don't have the software for photo/graphics editing like I used to :/KITT222 wrote:

Any chance you would be interested in these? If so, I'll do $175.00 for all of them. This offer goes for anyone else as well.MorbidAngel wrote:Thanks everyone for the warm welcome to the forums !!

I had those made. It was my gift to GenVibe for coming to Erie. I still have a few I think, Need to put a few in the car before the trip.tpollauf wrote:Those FEW of us who made it to the Erie meet last summer got these nifty lil towels They measure 11" x 17"
Not sure who made these up BUT a similar towel for this year's meet would sure be nice
Would 250 miles to the Tail of the Dragon be too far?A Psycho Martyr wrote:I'm going to take Vacation Days at work for this event, but it's still a maybe for me.
I really wanna go since I'll be in a new car in about a year and won't be so actively modding the Vibe (if at all)
Doubt I'll attend another meet fter this unless it's within 100 miles
Brandon. Assuming you make the trip, you'll have some FREE gas for the trip backA Psycho Martyr wrote:I'm going to take Vacation Days at work for this event, but it's still a maybe for me.

Andrew. I thought it was you. Any chance of having a batch of 20 or so made up for this year's meet? Count me in if you need some $$$ funding to get them madehotbug1776 wrote: I had those made.

Huh????tpollauf wrote:Brandon. Assuming you make the trip, you'll have some FREE gas for the trip back
Nah, not selling it.hotbug1776 wrote:If you sell the Vibe, keep us in mind.
Tail of the Dragon... in Tennessee. I made the same mistake in the 2013 planning back in the fall.A Psycho Martyr wrote:Nah, not selling it.hotbug1776 wrote:If you sell the Vibe, keep us in mind.
Keeping it to hopefully sell to my youngest brother when he turns 16 and gets a job.
And I dunno about hosting, not familiar wit Florida at all, but I might attend in the new ride.
Good to see that you are at about 75% now. I'm sure it won't be all that bad for gas, but spending money will be the kicker. LolA Psycho Martyr wrote:Must, just made it official at work
I'm off (getting paid) for the dates and can be there Fri night and leave Sun afternoon.
Now just gotta line up the gas moo-lah and spending money.
If that first as planned I'll be there.... still iffy tho.
Not sure the wife realizes that Saturday is Father's Day
Maybe she wants to give you a break, and let you hang out with your Vibe buddies.A Psycho Martyr wrote:Must, just made it official at work
