With the rediculous rise in gas prices and the incentives available from GM (Employee Discount/$1K Cash/$1K "Conquest"), I was more than happy to buy my Vibe and get rid of my Explorer. Besides very good gas mileage, I bought this vehicle because of its AWD ability and Toyota drive-train. The exterior is much better looking than the Matrix, the car is very functional thanks to the storage room and 5-doors, and it definitely has a stylish character. The interior layout is good, with only a few complaints (center armrest is too short, CC is located in awkward place, no power driver's seat). Overall, I'm very happy considering I got an AWD for the FWD MSRP!

A cute little car that's lots of fun to drive. Just the right size and the engine performance is better than what you've been told. It feels and looks like you got more quality than you paid for.

This is the car I really wanted. I knew going in that the AWD model was a little underpowered compared to a 5-speed front wheel drive model. Outside style and inside comfort are first rate. Doors all close with that nice Japanese sound and fit. The trick to driving it is to keep the overdrive turned off while in traffic below 50 mph. Then when everyone is out of your way or you merge onto the highway, kick on the overdrive and let it roll up to 60 + mph. There is a torque converter that allows the overdrive to have a high and low range so you will control that with your touch on the gas peddle. I plan to add power with some after market engine breathing products.Try to get $3000 in rebates
Wheel Bearing Trouble

We bought our AWD Vibe used in 2007. We have put approximately 45,000 miles on it since, due to our work travel. In July of this year (2008) we replaced both front wheel bearings which cost us over $500.00 and this month, (October) we have replaced both rear bearings which cost us over $700.00. Is this normal for AWD?
