There is more fun for ya in the future. I still love to drive mine. This is by far the most fun car I've owned since my '77 Cherokee when I was in high school.

Way to go! I've had mine for about 3 months now (just past 5000 miles!) and I've gone on a few long road trips so far... the Vibe has done great!Enjoy it!

6.62L/100Km - awesome!!! Five years ago I was living in Europe and I needed THE ULTIMATE gas mileage warrior...so I ended up with a pathetic Renault Clio. It was ugly, pretty weak, and got 100K/3.3L! (That's roughly .87 gallons to go 62 miles!) Granted, I didn't push this thing over 65 mph on the Autobahn, but then again I had a lot more money in my pocket.Cougar Vibe

I'm disappointed...I read the title and thought this was going to be a McDonald's rant. Congrats on the new Vibe!
