I lost my vibe for 2 weeks once, at least I got a decent rental. You probably don't want to have as much fun with the S-10 though since it sounds like it's not a rental.

I also have things to bring in the car. I would have shipped the car but you can not have anything in it and it costs over $2000 USD so in Feb I moved up here and left the car and my stuff at my folks house. They love the car... I'm wondering who they will be sad to see leave lol. In May I'll be going back to Ontario for the car, loading it up and then the wife (Hope) will fly down and together we'll drive back up.

I was vibe-less for almost two weeks, and it is really great to have it back.. I too was driving a small pickup truck. Funny thing about it was that during those two weeks of trucking, I must have seen six Vibes a day, each one I almost waved, then remembered I wasn't in the Vibe, so I didn't bother.Now I've been Vibin for four days again, and have not seen one other Vibe yet.
