Has anyone one else notice that there have been alot more vibes on the roads. It seems like where I live they are everywhere, and their seems to be new ones popping up everyday. The other day I went to walmart, I parked in the back and when I came out their was a vibe on both side of mine, one was the same color as mine . and now there is other driver with a vibe at my work.Seems like sales are going good for the Vibe.
they do seem to be everywhere. but i have noticed before that once you start looking at a car or get one you notice them more often..my mom asked me how much i payed for mine today, she had found a 2005 in stealth near her. Hahahaha if she buys one i will laugh i've only had mine a week and a half. and she's only riden in it once. the vibes are taking over one family at a time.
there are a lot more in Duluth here. Lots of the new models and its mostly older people...im like..dang santa drives a vibe? hahha but ive seen some young women driving them every so often.. I'd wave but i think they would think im weird....
I was at my plotting service today and saw 3 vibes parked next to each other. I've seen them there before, all separate though. Looks like they formed their own little Vibe club Next time I go I will have to restock my GenVibe business cards and put them on their Vibes.

not wierd just happy and friendly. my uncle looks like santa sometimes when he goes for the wild man look ( devorced). funny thing is he is the only one of his brothers (5) or most of the cousins who still have hair.
I used to go for weeks without seeing one... But now it seems they're easy to find. I guess the fact that they've been around a few years plus there are plenty of cheap used ones to be found is helping. Tons of 'em are beat all to hell by now too. The few new ones that are running around are still in pretty good shape - for now...I noticed I began to see more after I traded mine in last year. Now, with its replacement, I can go a full month without seeing another one on the road. Weird how this stuff works.

I haven't seen any beat all to hell. But I've noticed more too. I usually see the same ones though...I keep seeing this one Frosty with a dent in the tailgate, and a salsa with checkered graphic on the doors.
In Southern Ontario, I see tons of them every day, for a couple years now But I find that if I drive across the border, even to say, Buffalo... I hardly see any vibes there.I guess they're very popular here, we know a good car when we see it!

Weird how this stuff works.Just goes to show that CP traded his car in - not because of the continuous problems he had - but because the Vibe was getting too popular in his neck of the woods.Now, he drives the Hyundai, but just wait, he'll trade it in when people realize that its a decent car and they start becoming popular too! Back on topic -- I have noticed a surge in Vibes lately, but look at gas prices and compare it with Vibes. Vibe sales haven't increased as gas prices have risen, but certainly more Vibes are being seen on the road. Is it due to the thinning herd of gas guzzling trucks?

More and more Vibes in Quebec also. Less than Matrix but it seems 2007 has been a good year for sales for the Vibe.Funny story: the second day I had my Vibe (first day to work with it), when I got back to the car after work there was another Vibe, same color (Moonstone), parked right next to it. I just laughed out loud. Then I was mad because my dream of being one of the rare ones with that car/color was crushed. Up to that point I had only seen one moostone Vibe on the road
I have noticed a lot more now as well. But looking at the fuel prices and the fact that they have been out for what, 5 years now. The numbers were bound to increase.
Here in New York (Long Island and Brooklyn) I also noticed more Vibes around than before. And Hyundai is a very popular brand here too (I own Sonata also).
No Vibes or Volts spotted here Though I think a local Toyota Dealer has a supped up Matrix with a hoodscoop and all sorts of other nifty stuff....I want to drive up and take a pic but afraid of getting yelled at.....
