Saw a Pontiac AD that co-featured the Vibe with the G6.

Post by BlueCrush »

I haven't seen a Vibe ad in, like, forever! Then, last Friday I was watching TV ,minding my own business, when a Pontiac AD comes on. It first talked about the G6's power and mileage and then they talked about the Vibe and its mileage and storage capability. I actually sat up from my prone position and said, "Holy Crap! It's a Vibe AD"I was really surprised and happy to see that they are starting to push the Vibes again. I suppose now that the next Generation Vibe is coming out soon they are wanting to build up interest again. Well, its about damn time! I hope to see more in the future.

I've averaged about 36 over a lot of miles so far.Perhaps GM is advertising it now because next year they'd have to advertise the new test lower EPA mileage estimates

i haven't seen any vibe ads, but i've been noticing a lot more vibes in my area! every time i see one i go, "OHH! another vibe!" and check if they have done anything to it. most are stock. i've seen a few older (02-04) and i've been seeing more 06's. and yes. the vibe is an AMAZING car. i don't think everyone should have it, just those who are deserving. cause nothing is cool if other people like it.
None. Vibe is gone.

Bringing up old posts again... Anyone recently see any ads for the vibe? I haven't, and it's a shame.Quote, originally posted by tribalman » i've been noticing a lot more vibes in my area! every time i see one i go, "OHH! another vibe!" and check if they have done anything to it. most are stock. I think all of us fellow Genvibers do this, I know I do!

I don't think I've seen a vibe ad in years. It's a real shame.

Sort of off topic but not really....I'm going to go try and sell a Vibe tonight. Some friends of mine are in the market for a new vehicle and the other day she emailed me asking questions about my Vibe. She said they'd read good things about it and think it might be the way to go. I offered to go over there so they could test drive it and check it all out, so tonight I'm going over for dinner, and to see if I can sell a Vibe! Oh, just to stay on topic, I don't think I've EVER seen a commercial for a Vibe. I'm pretty sure I would tape it and watch it over and over.
