But all I see in my lot is a couple of Toyota Matrixes. And I think out of all the Vibes I have seen, only two of them were being driven by someone under 50. Not to say that is a bad thing, but they don't even acknowledge the fact that you have the same car. It will be cool to see some younger owners who you can wave to or something.

I think my Vibe is oversexed. I was the first one at work to get one and now there are 5 others.Plus I see more and more each day on the road. Becoming quite popular. James

I park next to a Matrix at my lot at work... a Vibe is there sometimes as well. It's pretty cool to see them all parked next to each other... at least they are safer than being parked to other vehicles.I am going to snap a pic the next time it's a nice day and they are all hanging out.

For us Eastern Michiganders we have to remember that GM is here. When I wanted to buy my car I was thinking of going the GM pep plan because my wife works for them. There was a 8 month wait on the car that I wanted. Now the wait is over for pep and the people are picking them up left and right. The assimilation has begun. We cannot be stopped.

Vibe's in my neck of the woods are still few and far between, kind of odd figuring its the Chicagoland area. I may see 2 to 3 other Vibes in an entire week.

There isn't a whole lot of Vibes that I see in the Dallas, Texas area. Everyone drives trucks.

I bought my Vibe on a Saturday, talking to the salesman about how I would be the first at the office to have one. The following Monday morning I show up and tell everyone about the new ride and my boss mentions "Yeah, such and such has one of those." I look out the window, and DOH! I never noticed...So there's two, my Neptune two-tone base with a/t, moon & tunes and alloys, and another similarly-equipped base model in Shadow. I kinda like it that way, makes the Vibe really stand out in a parking lot full of Explorers. LOL!Still don't see many on the road. Looks like the Matrix is REALLY kickin' the Vibe's (removed) in sales here, although those are few and far between as well.

Mine was the only one on the base before I left, so I'll be pissed if I get home and the place is over-run with them.

I was half shocked out of all the VIBE's that are out here. I would say I would see on avg. 5 a day driving up and down Rochester Rd.

I did alot of driving today (helping my mother-in-law move) in 2 different states (PA and NJ). I saw 2 Vibes (not counting mine since I wasn't driving it) and 9 Matrix.
