Why did she make you trade the Vibe... mind-control? (some girls have that you know)

Yeah... just wondering on why you traded in your Vibe? Did she not like it? Guessing with another person to drive around you would have gone bigger but it seems you went smaller! What is that by the way?

Hmm, yes, was this mind control or a purchase out of necessity? If it was mind control, I feel bad for you. If it was truly out of necessity however, I certainly respect that. I actually would do the same if the need presents itself. Can't say that I would ever buy a Civic, but still. Either way, look at the bright side: Your Civic is probably a decade older than our Vibes, yet you have more paint left on the front bumper than many of us do.

i don't get it... who the hell istill sells those? a honda civic?? a hatchback on top of it??you say you traded the car in?? was it paid off?? if not, then why did you do it? you still end up upside down. unless it was a even trade. (take over payments) either way.. doesn't seem logical.i'm really sorry though. cause you got robbed!!!

OK, let me get this figured out. You got rid of the Vibe, a 4 door hatchback with paint problems, and got an older Honda 2 door hatchback, by the looks of the bumper, with paint problems. This is either a horrible joke or >queue whip crackI'm really not trying to be mean but this has to be some kind of bad joke.

It's a sad day in Vibe-dom Could ya at least post a pic of the girlfriend... maybe it'll help justify everything since she's gotta be hot if she won over the Vibe.

Yeah, that sounds like mind control to me. For what it's worth jeffgtx, she did not trick me into putting the pink overlays on the door locks. That decision was entirely of my own. Hell, if either one of us is going to turn our Vibe into a hellokittymobile, that would be me. I don't like the pepto pink that much - it's just that I like to do things that will make people say "(removed) were you thinking, freakboy?"

You do have your priorities straight. I wish you the very best with the girlfriend and especially the baby! Congrats and good luck!
