Congrats on the one year anniversary! We have the same year/color Vibe. Glad you're still enjoying it. I just passed the one month mark myself and am still in love with the car.

Re: (northvibe)

I'm liking it a lot. I did end up with the PS2 version though, so I could play with some work people. Unfortunately I'm having router issues. When connecting to EA's matching server everything is fine, but once the game starts it becomes a peer to peer connection, and for some reason the game doesn'...

I'm on Xbox Live now, my gamertag for those interested is: Wardog 360. I've just been playing Rainbow Six Lockdown, hopefully I can get the new Burnout this Friday.

Not too many active Floridians here. I'm about 45 minutes south of the Tampa Bay area. I would love to go to a meet in the future. It's a little crazy right now with work and school, but in 2-3 months I should have a 3-day weekend or something. I'd drive to Tampa easily, Orlando or Miami is a little...

I grabbed Rainbow Six Lockdown the other day for Xbox. It's pretty cool so far, but I've just been playing offline. This coming weekend I'll be setting up my Xbox Live account, so if anyone is up for that or Burnout Revenge, let's get something going. Friday and Saturday nights are really the only t...

My dealer didn't have an GT's in stock, but I did contemplate ordering one. In the end, the gas mileage/regular fuel won out. I read the consumer reviews, and many of them said the base engine is great for everyday driving. If I had the extra horses, not only would I be spending more on premium fuel...

Congrats, I think you will enjoy your Vibe. They really are an all-purpose vehicle, but most importantly they are fun as hell to drive.

Dead battery? >_<

I'm on day two owning my new Vibe. I went out to run some errands this morning and it wouldn't start. I knew right away it was the battery, and at first I thought it was my fault, but I checked and I had not left any lights on. So I called AAA, and the rep jumped me, then ran a battery test. The bat...

So who is picking up Burnout Revenge on the 14th?I'm thinking of getting an X360 around Christmas time, I usually buy consoles on launch day, but it might be better to wait a month or two with the 360. There will be a better selection of games and whatnot.

The Vibe demographic is definitely younger folks, but it seems older people are getting into safe, fuel efficient vehicles regardless of marketing. I noticed a trend in my area, which has a very high percentage of retirees. About half of all the Scion xB owners around here seem to be retirees. I nev...

Re: Are you a gamer? (Mavrik)

Metal Gear Solid III is amazing, one of my favorites on the PS2. I'm a big Metal Gear fan though. Speaking of Gran Turismo 4, I just won a Logitech wheel from ebay, the type that has force feedback and rotates 900 degrees. I'm looking forward to playing it with that, and I got it at half the retail ...

Are you a gamer?

I figure there must be some gamers among this crowd. So what do you play?I play World of Warcraft most of the time, but I do also own a PS2. I don't use that for online gaming much, but you can probably catch me playing Burnout Revenge on the net later this month. I also have an Xbox but it's gettin...

You got lucky there. I almost got hit bringing my Vibe home from the dealer today by an elderly gentlemen who decided to pull out from a median without looking. I was pretty angry actually, it would suck to get a brand new car totalled before you even make it home.. Down here in sunny Florida we hav...

Re: Forum newbie/future Vibe owner? (djpositivek)

Hah, yeah I guess it does. I'm making the appointment to get the windows done soon. That will probably be the last bit of money I spend on it for a couple of months while I save for some new springs and a nice rim/tire package. Here's a side shot.

Time for a couple of pics. It's all stock right now, so I guess if you've seen one Platinum Vibe you've seen them all..

Heh. I'll have to try that. I really do like the Matrix body style though. I might have gone that route but we saved so much on a Vibe, I would have had to buy a 1 year old preowned Matrix to get in at the same price.

I picked up my Vibe today, and it's great. It drives and feels like a $25,000 car. I ended up getting the Moon & Tunes package for only $755 more. After looking at some of the killer Vibes here, I already have the urge to start customizing mine. What did it cost most of you for your tint? These ...

I'm confident I made the right choice. We paid a little more than we would have for the Scion xB, but my wife hated it's boxy style, and our Vibe has a lot more options. It's a sweet looking ride, I just can't wait to personalize it a little.I'll post some pics after I pick it up from the dealer.

Well, we just got back from the dealer. I drove a nice white 2005 base model and loved it. It has more room than the xA, looks nicer and runs faster than the xB, and my wife likes it too. The deal I saw in the paper was a "lead in", that price was for a pre-owned one actually.I ended up bu...
