This is a great forum. I've been here for 4 years (in May) and can say that its the only place I've stayed that long. The people here seem to have a genuine respect for each other and we love our Vibes. I've learned a lot from this forum and I hope to continue learning from everyone here.

Thanks for genvibe Nick. Also thanks to Millster, ArcsVibe, and rasermon (and all the other mods) for keeping this place under control, a thankless job most of the time, but your efforts really pay off and are appreciated.I sure have learned a lot about my car here, and made some great friends. GenVvbe has contribued a lot to how much I like the car.

Happy 4th Birthday, GenVibe!Like others have stated, I can't say enough about how valuable of an automotive resource this site has been. I've met some wonderful people and had some great (and extended) conversations with many members of this site. Sometimes it really made me think about things, so I have to say that GenVibe has probably contributed to raising my IQ a few points in addition to all the other usual benefits of being a member here. It's been awesome to watch this site grow and evolve over the past few years and I'm glad that I've hung on for the ride. I really enjoy serving others and this site has given me many unique opportunities to do so.My apologies to all for the times when I was quarrelsome in the past. We are all unique and different in our own way, and we come from many different walks of life. I've learned that while I don't have to agree, I can still respect others and where they're coming from. It's better to lend an ear and help out when you can than to build walls and argue over every little thing.Finally, my thanks to Michael Levine for creating this site 4 years ago. He probably had no idea what this site would turn out to be back then and how much it would become for so many, but those of us who have stuck around have surely come to understand. And a huge thank you to those who continually contribute their time and talents to always improve GenVibe and keep it safe and fun here. Though it isn't said often enough, most of us greatly appreciate the efforts that NSimkins, millster, and rasermon put into the site. I also am grateful for the other mods as well, both past and present. I'm proud to have been among your ranks for about the past 3 years serving the GenVibe community in whatever way I can. And last but not least, a big thank you to all the active members of the GVC community, especially those who have stuck around through the years and still stop in regularly. Without the active members, this wouldn't be much of a site. Whether you've been a member for 4 years or 4 days, this site exists as such a great place because of people like you .
