i hit it the other day, so i figured i should take a picture here it is

Woo-hoo! I'm getting close to that myself, I'm almost at 79,000.

Cool! I just broke mine in at 58,000! I celebrated with new front brakes too! New spark plugs, belt, battery and brakes all within the last 6 months and my Vibe runs like new! A bottle of Chevron Techron in the tank once a year and the performance is always there...

80k and no major probs = good thing i hit 40,000 miles last week, and i've only had my vibe for a few days over 2 years. i'll prolly hit 60k by new years

when are spark plugs supposed to be done?? im thinkin i may be due for some

I'm approaching 89k miles now. Still runs great with no problems! It's great to have a car that is almost 6 years old that I still really enjoy with no plans of selling.

I never go by those extended change intervals and always cut them in half and do the maintenance. If left until 100K you can see poor fuel mileage and performance and a miss fire code could pop up.

50,000 MILES - For me that would be 8 years give or take. I am at 29,950 - 5 years 1 month. I fear if I wait much longer they won't be able to get them out. If you are spending the labor to get them taken out to make sure they dont freeze up might was well spend the extra $15 and get new plugs.

i passed 10,000km a few weeks back..didnt get a pic

im at 63,000 miles. when i got it about a yr ago it only had 12,000 miles on it. is 50,000 a lot of miles for one yr???

ahhh, woo hoo! too bad i bought mine used at 79,000..

i spend about $60-$90 a week, so thats between $3000-$4700/yr

sheesh...guess i gotta do spark plugs soon, that may explain why gas is dissappearing faster lately...or its because of the heater on all the time.

Death just turned 50,000 last Sunday.

jake75 i do alot of freeway driving so i get about 32mpg and gas here last yr was around $2.50
