0% - Must resist...but could not...

Post by AzFusionGT »

It is with mixed emotions that I bid a fond farewell to my Vibe GT. It served me faithfully for two years, crossing the country twice, with numerous trips to Colorado and California. It never had any problems of real urgency, just more annoying than anything. I'd been reading rumors on the 'net of GM offering 0% but didn't pay much attention until I stopped at my local Saturn retailer, where the Sales Person said it was true. I've been eyeing the Vue Red Line for several years now, but the opportunity never presented itself. This time it did. I got the 0% for 72 months - I figured lower the payment since it's costing me nothing. So I left there last night about 8:30 pm with a 2006 Vue Red Line.I don't like the fact that it's an automatic, , but I am working on getting over it. I've never been a frequent poster here, but would check the board daily for anything interesting and new. Thanks all - it's been real and it's been fun, and YES, it's been real fun.

Vue pic looks nice. What made you interested in the Vue?Always prefer not to see a member trade/sell a Vibe, but it is just a car, not a religion You'll still be welcome here, no doubt. Enjoy the Vue!!!

Thanks for all the nice comments! I knew I loved this site for a reason. On the day I bought it, I took it out for an extended test drive to make sure it fit in my tiny little garage. It had 3 miles on it, and when I brought it back, it had 63. Today I'm up to 148. Needless to say, it fits just fine.I had some running around to do today, and despite still looking for the clutch a couple of times, I am getting used to the automatic.I tried out the OnStar today by calling my Brother. (removed)!! Love it, love it, LOVE IT!! I think it's hilarious that the Vue has its very own phone number. How cool is that!?!?!
