I have a pair of Yakima bars and Q-towers for my old car. What would I need to use the bars on my Vibe?

NaNC3

It's just a clock. It is showing Tokyo time but I think you can change it to other major cities. The company sells cashmere sweaters.

(bump)Lots of games today! I know there are more Big Ten people than have voted so far!

NaNC3

Since there were so many Big Ten fans in another thread, I thought it would be fun to count us! This is about which team you root for, not which team you think will win the football championship.

I found one that's not too bad. Google search "David Letterman", no size filter, on Page 8 (fresnobeehive). Image size is 1760 x 1800 - 465k. Just wish he was smiling or laughing.

NaNC3

I'm looking for David Letterman. I need it for a trade show. I would be willing to pay a small fee (say less than $10) because otherwise I would need to go to the bookstore and look for a current magazine with him in it (not likely) or buy a biography of him, if there is one. (I do have a scanner.)I...

Hoping someone can help me. I'm good with computers but not so good with pictures. I need to find a decent photo of a particular celebrity and forward it to someone who is going to make a powerpoint (I think) and project it. All of the images I can find using Google images are low-res jpgs. They loo...

Although we certainly love our Vibes more than this guy did, I thought it was a pretty fair review. I don't think he hated it. He clearly doesn't like Corollas and considers the Vibe an improvement.TTAC reviewers seem to be in a never-ending contest to out-do each other with wild metaphors. It makes...

I have not yet seen a Wave Vibe. I saw two bright blue Matrixes (Matrices?) yesterday and I would like to know if it's the same color.NaNC3 (Team Stealth)

I remember that "oddest thing" thread but I can't find it now. (Do you have a link?) Did someone here send it to Pontiac, or did someone at Pontiac initiate it here?I haven't been on here too much lately so I 'm sure I missed something.ThanksP.S. It was just so cool to open up the mag yest...

Congratulations, Debi a.k.a. HawaiiPontiacLover! WooHoo!

I bookmarked the link that goes straight to the Latest Active Topics. I cringe when I see that fourth anniversary thing! I would think ad sponsorship would be negatively affected by the obvious out-of-date-ness and knowing that users like me (and I'm sure lots of us) bypass that page completely.

I had one of the first "dustbusters", a 1990 Chevy Lumina APV. I don't remember what the polymer was but I think it was something new. An engineer friend speculated that by molding the body panels, the design could have some curves that they could not have made with stamped steel.In the ca...

Congrats! Did you buy it from AggieDude? Here are his pics:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=26487I love my Stealth Vibe!

hmmm....mine is almost the exact age and mileage as yours, and I've not had any problems. Sorry....

I would recommend joining and participating in your chamber of commerce. Mine is good for networking and also learning. I meet potential clients, people who may know potential clients for me in the future, and other business owners to learn from and with.Also check your library for books on the lega...

NaNC3

aggiedude, your last pictures really show off the color well.

NaNC3

hey, I'm still here. I went up north over Christmas and saw one other Stealth Vibe, in Delaware. And I've seen another in my town, and that's it. Stealth IS the best color!

NaNC3

IMO, New Beetles come in the best colors! They keep coming out with new colors, keeping the Beetle fresh.Also, nice pic, CP. Thanks.

NaNC3

I noticed in mine today that the OFF light was on while I had maybe 12 pounds of stuff on the seat. I did not buckle the seat belt. If there is just a little stuff on the seat, the OFF light is off.

NaNC3

I'm not a gamer but I would advise you to not sink any more money into the old system. Do you have an elderly relative that might want a computer for email?One thing I didn't see mentioned is the operating system. You want Windows XP (Home or Pro) and I would think your old system is probably Window...

ABS does not include traction control. Traction control is not available on Vibe. ABS can be bought by itself, or bundled with OnStar in what they call the security package. Side air bags are not included in this package. They can be ordered separately.Stabilitrac is very hard to find, and ABS and s...

This is for crazytrain:I was going to say that your MPG seems about right. Mine is similar. HOWEVER if you are idling 3 hours per week going 0 miles on some amount of gasoline, then that will bring your average down quite a bit. So I think you are doing well for MPG! On the other hand, that seems li...

Hey Mike,I'll be looking for you! If you see a Stealth color 2006 Vibe, it's probably me or my daughter, so wave!NancyNE Hickory/Viewmont

also check with your ISP to see if they offer anything. I have cable, and they provide a free anti-virus program. (download) They don't advertise this service though.Don't remove IE. Firefox is great and I use it for 95% of my browsing -- but there are still sites that require IE. Plus so much softw...

NaNC3

I have been trying to figure out why they called the edgy regular car the Fusion and the kind-of-rounded-off crossover thing the Edge, rather than the other way around. I guess they finally ran out of USABLE f-words!

NaNC3

Call your insurance agent. It should be covered under comprehensive. And if they can fix it (not replace the windshield) it should be covered without the deductible.

NaNC3

My 2-month old Vibe has a Major crack (maybe 20" long) that apparently happened during a road trip last week. Good (but HOT) weather/ smooth roads/not much traffic, and I didn't know anything hit the windshield. But there is a little divot where it was hit, and three cracks radiating out from i...

NaNC3

mikey, sorry that I doubted you! (I thought I read somewhere, about 2 months ago, that Pontiac was going to RWD)but GM, say it ain't so!!!!

NaNC3

I think mikey meant to say that Pontiac is returning to RWD. I don't really get this because they only "sell" two RWD cars now that I can think of (Solstice and GTO)...and they don't know how to sell the GTO...(I have only seen one GTO out in the wild!)I personally prefer FWD and I think i...

Benny, I just saw this today (7/12)....I don't have enough experience with my Vibe yet to have any opinions on comfort or how it handles in bad weather. I've had mine since May. I wanted ABS because it is well proven to be effective, and I think it should be standard on all cars. Also, I have teenag...

A lot of Vibes have the "sun and sound" package that includes the sunroof. Most Vibes (Base FWD) DO NOT have ABS, but that may be less true in the snowier areas. None have traction control. Stabilitrak is a very rare option. Since a new model year is starting, you may be able to order what...

Looks like Sun & Sound package goes down by $100 -- but so does the package savings if you also buy Preferred Package (savings was $300; now $200)Also monotone goes up $25 to $350.

NaNC3

Thanks all, for your replies so far. My insurance company did not give me a discount for getting them. They told me side air bags didn't matter either. I would have liked to have the side air bags, but they were even harder to find, plus very expensive. I figure if ABS saves me one accident it more ...

NaNC3

This was important to me, and several other recent posts have mentioned it. Did you want/get ABS (anti-lock brakes) when you bought your Vibe?

NaNC3

The package with the spoilers is called the "Sport Appearance Package" and is dealer-installed, according to the 2006 Vibe brochure. "Sport Appearance Package Includes front and rear fascia extensions, side rocker extensions, roof and midgate-mounted spoilers"Also, the brochure m...

NaNC3

Be sure to let us know if they are there. I have same situation. I have not needed to open those bags yet, and I wasn't planning on taking it back to the dealer just for this.

NaNC3

I wish they would make ABS and maybe even side airbags standard, like much of the competition.

NaNC3

look at the poll again. Higher up, there are 20 Lava Vibes. For some reason, "Lava" is on the list twice.I would say go for it!

NaNC3

It's just awful how the vast majority of dealers order their cars. (they pick a set of options and all their cars are pretty much the same.) (I really feel sorry for anyone who wants a base with manual tranny!) I wanted ABS which very few in this area have, and had to get it with the monotone, sunro...

Eligible vehicles exclude Saab, Saturn, maybe Hummer, maybe a few others. Newer GM credit card lets you earn more $ fas...

Thanks for the welcome!Do any of you flash a peace hand signal at other Vibe drivers? (also V for Vibe?) I haven't seen another Vibe close by since I got mine! Just a thought!
