Adding to my Pontiac family

Post by Vibe_dude »

Just thought i would show you the new member of my Pontiac family..I traded in my 98 Honda Accord and got her.She is a 2004 Montana fully loaded.(love the dvd)with 90,000kms on her.not crazy about white but it does look nice.It drives so nice.and it is so sweet to have a v6 again so quite and smooth to drive.Its a lil bit harder on gas than my wifes vibe,but now i can haul the trailer that I want to get in the next few years.

I used to have one of those. Now the x has it. I really liked it. Great highway vehicle. Smooth ride, good power, and averaged about 25 mpg on our trips to Florida at speeds between 65 and 75 mph. A mechanic told me they are hard on brake rotors, but I never had to replace mine. I loved the removable seats. You can fit your Vibe in the back with the seats removed. Ours had the air leveling rear suspension. It had a fitting in the back for an air hose so you could inflate your tires. I used it all the time.

Ya Iam really loving it so far.I really do hate 1 thing about.Changing the air filter is a nightmare.It is so bloddy hard to get the old filter out and the new one in.there is no room to move it.But other than that I love it so far.Almost feel like taking a big road trip somewhere.lol.even though I have no time to do it.

Yes, the air filter is extremely difficult to change. I had a 98 and currently have a 01 Venture. My daughter averages over 25 mpg driving the van. (She keeps the OHC on avg mileage.) It drops when my wife drives the van. They have been great vehicles for our family. I even moved an upright piano in ours.

Do you have the storage drawer under the front passenger seat?

I think I might still have the owners manual, and the under seat drawer if interested. I had to remove the drawer in install the wife's cd changer. I'll just charge you whatever shipping is.

I didn't do anything illegal. Stupid maybe, but that was my moms fault
