I'll start off by saying, I'm Steve and we've had our vibe for about 3 yrs now. Generally, love the car. Primarily, it's the wife's.
Vibe is an '04 AWD, was a Moon N' Tunes package(but the previous owner must've decided to keep the sub)and is pushing 120,xxx on the clock.
Here's a pic from our vacation last year, that we camped our way around PA.
The car is the 3rd member of our geocaching team. I've been thankful for the AWD many times with some of the (wish-they-were-as-good-as)rural roads we've found ourselves on.
I have been letting a garage handle most of the work that's needed done to it, being the wife's car. I take my chances with my own vehicle before hers.
But after owning an XJ for some years, gaining more than enough knowledge and confidence, I'll do most of the "within reason" stuff. No engine swaps here, replaced a radiator once, that was about my limit.
Hopefully, I can contribute, at least a little, to the site.

! That's a beautiful 1st gen AWD you've got there! 120,000 miles is nothing. You and your wife are sure to have many more worry free years ahead with your Vibe.
You definitely have the nicest color of all our Vibes. That fusion orange, as I believe it was called, returned only for the brief 2010 model year as "ignition orange" and I wanted one so bad .... but would have lost thousands in rebates & incentives at the time so I stuck with my Red
