I'm 6'4" and my wife is 5'1". Each of us have no problems. I actually have more headroom then my 96 Bronco. I have a 2005 and love it. Never a problem and the gas economy is super! (No AWD, automatic,) I live in Seattle and made many trips to the slopes for some snow action. The front wheel drive was better then my friends all wheel Outback. We ended up always taking the Vibe because it was safer in the snow with it's fron wheel drive. I would never buy a Pontiac. I bought the Vibe because it's a Toyota underneath. I'm not going to do any performance mods, just some conservative bling. I have found the interior very easy to work with & most upgrades I can do and I'm a mechanical idiot!Namaste,GuruJ

Hi and Welcome to the board! Sorry I can't answer all your technical questions, just wanted to add I'm 5'2", have no visibility problems driving or reversing; my mom is even shorter 5'0" I think- she has no problems driving or reversing either, but because she is over 70 I decided to add on the reverse sensors And I agree with Blue Crush about the Neptune. heheh...
