Ah yes, as you can see, here is a rare example of the Pontiac Vibe mating ritual. The male Pontiac Vibe, or Toyotae Wagonarus Pontiacus, will demonstrate his superior groundedness by pulling up chunks of the ground. This particular male is an excellent example of his species, as he has managed to raise an entire bolder from the earth. He will wait up on his new earthen perch until suitable female drives by. He may wait for up to 3 weeks for a female Vibe or Matrix to pass, the longer he waits, the more he risks a dead battery, thus eliminating him from the mating season. Let's watch and see if any approach
I wonder if he would accept my Vibe...

My wife hit a rock a little smaller than that in our '04 at 50mph and moved it about a foot. Minor injuries to her but the car did not do so well.

I would offer my Vibe too, but he's a boy.

Hmmmm.... Once they get it down it will probably start right up and be on it's way again :?: Actually these folks just wanted a better view of the road? Maybe not. Interesting photo anyways.
