The rack and bag are both made by Rola. http://www.rolaproducts.com/ Rola is distributed in North America through Hidden Hitch/Cequent retailers. I picked up the rack and bag locally. PEI (Prince Edward Island) is Canada's smallest province, located North-East of Maine.

Here it is loaded up, on the first leg of our journey. That's our Grand Am beside it, we had so much stuff we had to take 2 cars. haha!

Thanks very much for the help, everyone. I figured 75 lbs was very conservative. We loaded it up, and I'm guessing we had about 130 lbs on the rails, including the cargo basket, bag & contents. The roof seemed VERY sturdy throughout the trip, I won't have any issue doing it again.I was however v...

We're heading for our first road trip with the Vibe this weekend, and we're going to be using our Rola roof basket & Rola Platypus cargo bag. However, I can't seem to find what the weight capacity of the Vibe's roof rack is. I'm running the Gm Accessories utility cross-bars, which as far as I kn...

Thanks for the great info! I do have a couple questions though...I have a 2006 Vibe (Canadian version). It has the upgraded 7-speaker stereo with XM. Not sure if it's Monsoon or not, as it doesn't say 'Monsoon' anywhere on it. I want to add an Aux input for an MP3 player, laptop, etc.I ran into a pi...

I don't remember paying a toll when we left PEI, however that was 5 years ago so I probably don't remember it anyway. We stayed in Summerside - well at a campsite near there - Linkletter Park....

Thanks for the tip on the Matrix site! I have some friends that own them, I'll have to see if they're members.ANO_Vibe: Yeah, the toll is pretty steep. They decided to keep the price about the same as the ferry that used to cross at the same location. Our airport is very expensive as well. But the I...

Thanks for the tip. I'll search to find the answer, but do you happen to know the part # for the drop-in? I've got a 33-2121-1 left over from the Grand Am, but I doubt it'll fit. D'Oh!

PEI is about as far away from California you can get while staying in North America. :lol: PEI = Prince Edward Island, Canada's smallest province. So small, in fact, that we're omitted from many smaller maps. If you care, we're just north of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. We're linked to New Brunswi...

I just searched, and it looks like I'm the only Islander on here. For shame! And to think of all the Vibes I see here on a daily basis. I guess I'll have to get a genvibe decal for the back window.

Yup, we took the bridge over and back. It was dark on the way home though, so I didn't stop for any pics. Luckily I didn't have to pay the toll on the way back.

Thanks guys!The Grand Am is still my pet project. My wife won't let me sink any more money into mods though. The Vibe is mostly hers, so I must respect her wishes. But then again...

Just joined, just picked up our new Vibe. The last remaining 2006 5-speed Pontiac Vibe in the Maritimes. This is how she looked at the dealership when we arrived to pick her up.Platinum Vibe, 5-speed, Charcoal interior, only options are 7-speaker Monsoon with XM.Chances are this car is going to stay...

Howdy!Just joined the other day after putting down a deposit on the last remaining 2006 5-speed vibe in the Maritimes. We drove over to Moncton yesterday to pick it up. This will hopefully be a great little car for us, as we needed extra cargo capacity.There, my first post is written. But probably n...
