24 hour test drive

Since I'm looking into a Vibe for my wife we took one home last night. We want an AWD so that's what we have here. I like the car a lot and surprisingly, so does the wife. We have to take it back in an hour. We got 25 mpg over 80 miles that we drove it. Pretty impressive considering the cold weather and my heavy foot. Also, it handles pretty nice. It corners flat, especially compared to my S-10 and her Cherokee. I think we're getting one. Now we just have to find a black AWD with the sport package. I hope there is one available because I'm not sure if the Red Tag Sale applies to ordered cars. I guess I'll find out. Andy

Cool! Congrats on your future Vibe. You probably will have to order that sports package for your new AWD separately as they don't come with it from the factory and it is a dealer installed part. Or you could buy it separately and install it yourself since abyss is one of the three prefinished colors it comes in besides primed. Good Luck with your search and future purchase.

There are a couple Vibes at the dealership with the sport package and it is listed on the factory window sticker. I didn't think it was a dealer option. I thought it came from the factory?
