Welcome back.

I guess the most important thing you missed was the day Bill Gates logged on and gave everyone that was logged in at the time $500K each. Needless to say those folks all bought other cars and don't post here anymore,

Guess I missed it too.

And you

Glad to see you back

Welcome back Jerry :D! You missed a Chicagoland Vibe get-together at the Morris, Illinois Cruise Night back on 09.08.12. It was me, Tim and his girlfriend (in his HHR SS), Michelle and Chris and a couple newcomers to GV at the time. There was a total of 4 Vibes. We had a good time, but unfortunately haven't met up since than. I don't even know what anyone's up to anymore because they never post on here and I never go on the FB page (or FB in general for that matter).

Pat sold his Supercharged Vibe last year :(.

We had the big GenVibe meet last year in Pontiac, Illinois and are having another one down there this year. July 19th to be exact. Check out the link in my signature for more info. It wouldn't be too far of a drive for you, maybe 3 hours *hint hint*...

I think that's about it. Glad to see you posting again and glad to hear the Vibe is still going strong! Perhaps I'll see you around in person ;)...

(removed), yea 3.0 is not going anywhere near water or lakes, or rivers, or streams, or puddles, or oceans, or coy ponds.... lol =P as for all models, i think id leave the trix alone and move to the next Toyota Twin, the GT-86/FR-S/BRZ twins ;)
