The $75 bucks out to cover a replacement for the 310CCA battery in my 2003 Vibe which has lasted the 3 year warranty period.

I think if Pontiac marketing folks read the transcript of that forum, they might get depressed!

Wow...I'm gonna have carpal tunnel after all that typing.I sure hope that Pontiac doesn't just focus on their website idea; they'd be missing the point. We need them to communicate with us, not just put a bunch of flashy apps on the web. Was it just me, or was that example page almost as bad as myspace.com?

no ...I definitely agree!

Speaking of that "Myspace-looking" example: WARNING: Spy photo to follow!*LEGAL DISCLAIMER: Toasted7 is in no way responsible for image and/or content*Right now it's called "Rogue Pontiac"(I didn't get a screenshot of the logo at the top though - this is the "proposed" content)

I was Jesse, and I was in the 5:00 pm discussion also. I bet Pontiac doesn't even use our "focus" group and goes ahead with what they already have. Rogue

I don't know guys, maybe we should cut em some slack. I've never ever been asked MY opinion from a manufacturer. It's kind of nice, whether they go with it or not, at least they paid me 75 bones to tell them what I think

Every time I tell somebody that I bought a Vibe, they ask what a Vibe is. When they see the car they like it. Advertise, Pontiac! You might sell some.
