Just the tires. Might have to wait for the tax refund checks though

I'm hoping to pay it off as well, we shall see.As far as mods, I plan on modifying all the dirt and debris out of the inside . My wife has been driving the Vibe more than I have lately, with children in the back, so there's a sea of little crumbs and half-sucked suckers on the floor and bench. Car's in desperate need of a detail.I do plan on finally installing my brass shifter bushings, debadging the car and perhaps painting some of the interior trim. I'd love an SRI as well, but I don't really see that happening

Today I changed the oil, coolant, ant headlight bulbs. Soon I plan on changing the manual transmission fluid.

ou.grizzly · Post by **ou.grizzly** » Sat Jan 02, 2010 5:22 am

Probably should wash and wax the 2009 Black Vibe, considering it has not been washed since July (when we bought it)

ColonelPanic · Post by **ColonelPanic** » Sat Jan 02, 2010 5:29 am

2011 is my payoff year, so that leaves tint (way overdue), new summer tires and MAYBE a different head unit for 2010! Be fun to see how many check marks we all have come December!

vibedrivermatt · Post by **vibedrivermatt** » Wed Jan 06, 2010 5:26 pm

also finish paying it off this year!.. brake fluid flush for extra special new car maintenance. I saw a car show on TV saying its good to do this every two years, seems like a good idea because my car is almost two years old.other more fun but maybe unrealistic things I want.. TRD lowering springsTRD front strut bracesummer tiresextra wheels to put summer tires on. I should really be saving that money for important stuff though.. like buying something worth something I guess. dang maturity.

I should really be saving that money for important stuff though.. like buying something worth something I guess. dang maturity. we need to have a meet for all us who are paying off our cars this year!as for the rims and summer tires, it is totally worth it. you need a good set of tires for summer and winter. all seasons just don't cut it. by buying this second set you are in fact PROTECTING your valuable investment by insuring that you will have the best traction possible. "maturity" for the win??

cptnsolo77 · Post by **cptnsolo77** » Wed Jan 06, 2010 10:07 pm

1. Take a big chunk out of the payment2. Finally get some Polk front & rear speakers to liven up the sound !

Me...-get some new tires-try to finish the audio install and updated thicker speaker wires-and something to do with this box....

It seems there is already enough support for all but the most extreme conditions.

06pvibe · Post by **06pvibe** » Thu Jan 07, 2010 10:33 am

Current:1) Xenonstore.com LED 3rd on the way!2) Hood gas strut kit on the way!3) Brass shifter bushing set on the way!4) Philips X-Treme H4's on the way!Future:1) Highway Blasters 2) Weathertech vent visors3) Install JVC double DIN. Have the HU, need the install kit and warmer weather.4) Install speakers, nothing too fancy or expensive.

I am considering installing a remote starter this summer... I am really missing it today at -32C... Secondly, I would like to install brush aluminum door steps (GM Accessories)...

Quote, originally posted by bull77 Â»me too and maybe a new paint job in the spring..well the Vibe is paid off With the family growing we needed more room for everyone. So we went to the Dodge dealer and bought a 2010 Grand Caravan. The dealer paid off the remaining balance on my Vibe and gave us payments that were less than the Vibe
