AWD Vibe in Montreal snow...

[VibeINC]

Anyone here own an AWD Vibe, how'd it handle our last real snowfall , how do they handle in the snow in general?? I love Vibes and can't wait to get one in the near future...Now, red or black, red or black??

Hello VibeINC and welcome aboard!A friend of mine has the AWD and so far loves it here in Montreal! With good winter tires he has had excellent traction.Now as far as for the color.......maybe Neptune ?

Hey I saw your Vibe at Cardomain.com, I was browsing there and noticed your car before I even found this site, nice ride!! That's a nice blue, eeerrr, Neptune, don't know all the real color names yet. Thanks for the welcome...About the color I like Vibes in every color I've seen so far, red, black, silver, blue, white, I think that's all I've seen, red or black is tops on my list, and I like the side moulding unpainted, makes it look more rugged. This really is the perfect car for me, higher seating position, convenience of a minivan/SUV, but drives like a car and it looks good!Did you see the Lapresse review of a couple test drving the Vibe?? They picked a couple who wanted a minivan but were testing a Vibe for 2 weeks (1 week per spouse) they both came away liking it after not even knowing Vibes existed and now they're considering it.

Thanks for checking out my car! You will be very happy with the Vibe, it is the best car I have ever purchased....great for long trips, very confortable, nice handling.Where in Montreal are you from? I live in Lasalle...nice to see another local on this site I will try to organize a meet in the summer time, I hope you can join us.As for the LePresse article yes I read it and was happy to see that the couple was actually deciding on the Vibe, it is IMO much better than a big old mini-van!

All are welcome hell you don't even need to be a Vibe/Matrix owner!!Not sure about NS, just a tad far from us but it is a very beautiful province as well.How far of a drive is Montreal from your place?

[ArcsVibe]

Where are you from bro?

[ArcsVibe]

Today is the day I wish I had AWD...the streets are just brutal

[Sub-Vibe-R]

Just do as me.Take the bus and save the Vibe!!!

[ArcsVibe]

I have them on! I have no problems but other drivers around here Ben you're right! Next time it just might be public transportation!!!

[ArcsVibe]

I was just thinking out loud LOLHaven't taken a bus in years...I am lucky though I can work from home but had clients in today.It is just funny that people here react like they've never seen friggin snow in their life

Some people are living here for decate and every winter they drive like is was the 1st time in the snow!!!I cannot understand why people here can trust crappy 4 season tire for winter. For me, 4 seasons tire are in fact summer tire. Winter tire here are a must.A co-worker here used to live in Swizerland and over there they do not have 4 season tire. They are illegal. You get a itcket if you do not have proper tire for the proper season.I'd like to have a law like this here too.

I agree! I saw too many people stuck with no traction yesterday!
