I am going to hit 120k this weekend, and also have done only routine maintenance. However, I am looking to sell my Vibe starting in August!

Not too much longer until your odometer doesn't register the new miles...about another year and a half at this pace...

at 114,000 on my abyss GT did my 100k maintance plugs all fluid change etc. still on orginal clutch beleive it or not I did have to replace my Cat. converter was the only code the car ever threw! been really happy with it i do work at 33 different dealers each weak and just seem to try to find a car to replace it just out of curiosity, but still cant seem to find a vehicle that does this all and that well, i hope to just pay it off soon and keep it maybe do a bright yellow paint job new wheels etcBut i have to say i seen a post here awhile back on a guy that had a salsa vibe i beleive was a deliverey vehicle with a quote of " well i know where the odometer stops its at 299,000" that was refreshing to see lol but thats why we buy and pay for such a quailty vehicle too begin with my point drive them and enjoy the senery

It's actually a shame that the odometer stops at 299,999. You'd think GM would want that odometer to spin for infinite miles. It's a tribute to the quality of the vehicle. Grant it, there may not be a ton of people out there cranking out the miles like I do, but we're out here. I work for a courier company and get questioned all the time about how I like my car, how many miles, the MPGs, etc. It's amusing to go in for oil changes and stuff..."Geeze, weren't you just here last week?" Sometimes I'll go somewhere new just for the facial expressions and comments when they ask for the mileage.My goal is 400k and/or the payoff, but I'll gladly drive it to point of not being worth the repair. I would have loved to walk in to a dealership in 2 or 3 or 4 years from now to trade in my (worthless) Vibe and having the odometer read 500,000+.
