Hi. New vibe owner here 2005 manual one! Excited and looking forward to life with 'Red Rocket'. I am so glad I found this forum; I had never driven a stick, prior to Red Rocket, but after trying it---never want to go back to a standard if I can help it!.
I bought the car from someone I know. He took great care of this car, it was 'his baby', but now it's mine !
I was not a fan of the decals, must admit, but that changed after an 8 year old boy that the car was 'cool'.
I love learning all of the new features of the vibe, so excited to join this forum!
Silly question, but since I don't have an over drive button in my car, does this means the car gets into overdrive automatically, depending on the gear I'm in?..
After speaking with a friend yesterday, I learned that staying between 2/3 RPMs helps the car do less work, smoother ride and helps save gas. Is this true?
So I have been driving it in 4th gear, and 5th if its over 60
Looking forward to hearing from you!
