You know what's kind of fun?Driving through the Toyota lot very slowly, only to stop in front of the line of Matrix's (Matrices?). There is not a lot that will repel car salesmen, but I guarantee you that they won't come over and bother you in that situation. In fact, I think they'll even go out of their way to make sure you don't get bothered by customers who might want to compare your car with the Toyota.(I'm only thankful that lasers don't come out of the salesman's eyes).

Heh. I'll have to try that. I really do like the Matrix body style though. I might have gone that route but we saved so much on a Vibe, I would have had to buy a 1 year old preowned Matrix to get in at the same price.

I may be a bit out of it but did you refer to the matrix as a golf cart? way to insult what you drive.

Anyone know how Vibe sales have compared to Matrix sales?
