Little workout for the vibe

Post by dgekiere »

right before the snow fell me and my dad picked up some new toy for this winter with the vibe. she pulled them beautifully. got to ride them a couple of times... snows melting too fast this year ... i am always amazed at what the vibe can do.

it definently doesn't lack power, or braking for that matter. when i had atv on it i had trouble holding 6th gear at 60 on some hills, but at 75 it pulled fine. dropped my fuel economy to 25 mpg ,normal was like 30 at that time. ussually gets 32 ish
