Here's a report on my manual/base 05 Vibe i bought 2.5 years ago and now have a little over 70,000 miles on it.Constantly average 30mpg highway/city mixed driving. When i tow it usually gets about 25mpgIt has had ZERO problems. I am not easy on my vehicles and it has not complained at all. I have used it to tow 1500lbs for about 15,000 miles. It has even towed a 1500lb trailer with 1200lbs of stuff for about 2,000 more miles.The maintenance that has been done is new wiper blades, Mobil 1 extended drain every 15,000 miles, changed tranny fluid at 60,000 miles, replaced tires at 50,000 miles. That's it, no clutch (even though i tow alot and pull 1,000lbs out of boat ramps all the time, no brake replacement (even though i tow alot) absolutely nothing else has been done to it. Can't say how good this vehicle has been to me.
