No more Vibe for V

Post by VforVIBE »

I was really disappointed with the quality of the new Vibe GT, it rattled, and just looked ugly, and the dealer already sold my old Vibe and had no others left on the lot, I got a Dodge Charger, V6, it's gold, sorry, no RT. So far I must say, I don't know why I haven't gotten rid of the Vibe sooner, it was really s-l-o-w, if you know what I mean. I've already beaten a V6 Rustan on my way home, I feel this car and I are going to have a great future together. I'm loving the new car and ask the mods change my screen name to CforCharger, I'm hoping to stick around if you all still want me.

So how did this work. Were you upside down with a trade in and all that or was there some kind of return policy??

Is this some kind of sick joke? I thought you would have at least held out for the new Camaro. I saw a bumblebee in your future, but not this. Has the whole world gone mad???

Something about the size of the rear door on the '09s that turns me off. Maybe with a rub-strip in the middle, it would break up the size of it.Charger's are awesome.

I would have picked the G8 GT in white. I'm lost on how you also went from black to gold. When I worked at Acura we never even kept a tan/gold car on the lot, if someone wanted that color we had to order it cause it was not very popular.

Huh?? You just got the new Vibe. I can understand why you want the Charger, but only V6's available, with gas prices as high as they are, no R/T's. That makes no sense. One other thing confuses me too, your digital photography skills are great and all you post is 1 dark picture. What's going on??

Nice Video!! You're an (insert derogatory comment here)! You're comments about the new Vibe and the crappy pic you posted made me think this was shady. I'm glad you've still got the GT.
