New to Gen Vibe, hello all

Post by Vibe2.0 »

First I would like to say hello and thank you for having such a great Vibe owners forum. Really an awesome site. I am not new to the Vibe, just new genvibe. My first Vibe was a 2004 that I recently retired. I am really excited to have a 2009 now and glad to meet you all. Here is "Vibe 2.0"

Quote, originally posted by Vibe2.0 »Thanks keithvibe, your vibe is awesome!I noticed you also have the sharkfin antenna,something I have been thinking about ordering, how has it worked for you?His Vibe IS awesome, and getting awesomer ( ) But he gave up on the sharkfin, I believe. Some people still like to listen to commercial radio. Me? I like to listen to my engine, intake and exhaust... I admit that I only tried it once, after I installed it and while sitting in my driveway. It worked fine under those conditions. But like I said, I hardly EVER listen to a CD, let alone commercial radio.Some complain the reception is not as good, and I can see why. It's only a little self-adhesive flexible PC board mounted to the underside that IS the antenna. Thanks too for the quote props. I chose them carefully, and firmly believe in them... even if the actual words are (or the credit is given to) someone else. My e-mail replies/signature at work are, and I beieve these to be somewhat original: Good communication is the KEY to great teamwork, and The is no shortcut to experience.

the reception is deminished with the sharkfin. Can't beat the look of it though.If you listen to the radio much, your probley not going to like it.
