Thanks. Any sepcific racks you'd recommend? (a trailer is not an option).

My Vibe has the standard roof side rails but no rack. I wanna carry a 17 foot kayak. Suggestions for rack/carrier etc appreciated! Please no super-expensive Thule system I am not made of green. Thanks!

A private seller near me has a 2005 FWD base Vibe (a nice blue) with only 32500 miles. It seems to be in very good condition, with the power package. He's asking $8500 but I'm thinking of offering less. The values I got on KBB and Edmund's were pretty divergent, so I thought I'd ask some real world ...
