I know someone who lives in WI. My ex-girlfriend's sister and her husband. Not sure where. Not sure what they drive. Not sure they even still live there -- this was as of 2 years ago. But FWIW, I think about y'all every time I have a hankering for a piece 'o cheese!!!

Bought my vibe at Don Miller in April... they're ok. But since then I decided UW-Mad was just too big so I moved to an itty bitty school in an itty bitty town in Colorado. I love it(my car), and so does my mom! So much so she bought a pretty much identical vibe!

For all the Vibes I see, particularly in Green Bay, we don't seem very well respresented here at GenVibe.

Milwaukee, WI here, gettin my vibe this saturday and I can't wait... killer deal on a 2003 (car dealer in the family) been seeing 7-8 vibes a day or so for the past 6 or so months, so figure it's time to unload my blazer before it gets too expensive.everytime that thing breaks, it's $2-3000 to fix, thank God I bought the extended warrenty, which runs out in 300 miles... gettin my vibe out of Florida at 22,000, warrenty till 82,000 --edit spelling--

it was all kinds of stuff, rattles, engine parts going bad, radio went (and was luckily covered) relay switches, got one thing fixed, then about a month or two later, it was something else...i didn't beat on it or anything, i was too afraid that if i did it would break and leave me stranded somewhere that i didn't really want to be.I've had my vibe for about a month now (north milwaukee area) and I love it. the only thing that i dislike is the cargo area... you have to strap everything down or it slides all over the place...and it does get past one of my pontiac issues... i've had a number of grand ams and even a sunbird convertable at one time, and they never really lit up the road at night with their headlights, but the vibe does that really well, plus you do sit pretty high for such a low car...

vibe in baraboo

Post by tahoejeff »

i purchased a 2003 black vibe from smart motors-madison in september '04, with moons and toons. it was one of the models i had circled in my consumer reports magazine that i took to all the car dealers i visited. the vibe got good ratings in the magazine, and i loved the look. it was a hard sell with my wife, but now she loves it as much as i do. i'm seeing quite a few vibes around baraboo this summer.i plan to try to connect an fm modulator to the antennae next week, so i can use my creative zen 30gb mp3 player. walmart has one for around $25. i took out the glove compartment this spring to see if i could find the antennae lead, but it's buried. i'll try prying off the front panel this weekend to see if that helps.
