How is everything working out with the new Vibe?

So far it is a great ride. Dealing with the dealer was a pain, but the car has been a delight to drive. I traded in an Accord 3.0l for the 1.8l. It takes a little getting used to, but I definetly do not fill up the gas tank as often. The satellite radio is awesome, the ride is quiet and comfortable.Now I await accessories for the car.

I was able to get the cargo net and bumper guard when I picked up my Vibe the other day. Some dealers in the east had extra cargo shades, but would not part with them. I have to wait for mine to come from big GM. The cargo net is better than I expected. It has the four plastic hooks which hook onto the lower four metal rings in the cargo area. The black net has a zipper that allows you to throw stuff inside for storage. At the same time, you can heap things on top or put them underneath, and the net will help hold them in place. The net is very tight once you put on the 4 hooks. The bumper guard is black and is thinner and narrower than I had hoped. It went on easily, and the black looks great on my navy blue paint. I can't wait for my cargo shade to come. I also attached my Drawtite Class 1 tow bar today. Puting it on the '09 was a breeze. I bought two and put the other on my '03 Vibe. Since GM does not cover the drill holes I had 6+ years of road dirt accumulate inside the drill holes, forcing me to wire brush and WD-40 the holes for a half hour before they would accept the bolts.
