Introduction - Vibrator08

I bought an '08 Vibe just a few days ago. It certainly has been a good idea to check out the information here on Generation Vibe as I've discovered a number of things my salesman didn't know about. There are questions the dealership can't answer so I hope to find answers here. I'll ask them in a separate post (makes for easier searching),This is my first new car, usually I wouldn't consider a new car because of the big amount of depreciation the first year. With the December Red Tag Sale and maybe some good dealing, I was able to save about $3k and get a better deal than what I'm seeing on the online price checkers.Optional equipment: Platinum exterior, 4 speed automatic, remote keyless entry, power door locks, power windows, cruise control.I was surprised that the Vibe doesn't come with more data inputs like a mileage checker and a digital compass. My old 2000 Chevy S-10 had a nice reminder for a left-on turn signal. The Vibe's seat belt reminder isn't as mild mannered either.It sure seems to be a lot peppier than the S-10 though.Here's a picture of me and my baby:

Im a 03-04 Vibe fan but I think Matrix won this round because they stole the old front end of the Vibe

I'm considering a cargo cover and maybe a bra.I got a itty bitty paint chip up front already.I wish there were some mods I could make to the odometer screen.
