Hello!!

Post by Albgixxer »

Just got a vibe yesterday and found this forum. Love the little thing. My other cars have always been trucks, jeeps, etc...so I'm still trying to get used to being so used to the ground, LOL!! Great site too!

Glad you found the Vibe and us, good cars, good site, good people. Hang in there, you'll adjust to the height no problem, I guess you could tell yourself it's not as bad as it could be with other cars where you would be even closer to the ground. What sort of Vibe did you end up with? Welcome aboard, and we all look forward to hearing from you. Enjoy the ride, and let us know if you have any questions.

Welcome!! See, I had to get used to driving higher up than normal, I always drove cars, you sit a little higher in this little beast.

welcome! and yes, it is an adjustment from sitting a foot or more off the ground, however, i'm sure you'll find it to be just an adjustment if you have to go back! lol. i went from a TRD Tundra 4x4 to my Vibe GT. it took me about a month to get used to it. but i found i could take corners like a champ!
