6 months 21000 miles Salesman Style

Great little car, great comfort, great mileage, great cargo capacity. I am a outside salesman and after 21k miles in 6 months I can say this is one nice car. averaged 38 mpg in the summer about 34-5 in the winter, simply fantastic, very comfortable and this is after at least 4 hours in the car 5 days a week. Dual power outlets keep my laptop on and my phone powered up, have hauled some pretty impressive items for the wagons size "do you have a truck?" nope i have the Vibe. The one complaint I really have is that the handling and steering while quite capable are not fun, but this is coming from someone who drives a miata or a motorcycle, so It's probably more nitpicking than anything

I absolutely love my little Vibe. I got the Sun & Sound pkg, so it looks and sounds great too. I love the spunkiness it has for such a little car, especially for a 4 cyl automatic, and it runs great on a cross-country trip. It holds as much as my old clunky Isuzu Rodeo, and gets twice the gas mileage!

I love my car. I bought it 01/2007 and have put 5k miles on it. It goes like 80 miles before it hits under the F on the gas tank. Gave a 7 for build quality due to the noise when driving on rough surface. I bought base model - and love it. Car does really well - fits my small and large friends who are 300+. Car accelerates quickly. Looked at Matrix and Caliber which are in same class as the Vibe. Looked at the Toyota Yaris as well. Took this car for test drive and bought it same night. This was our 4th car from the dealership and are very happy with it. Hope to keep it for many years

I love this car! It has been a dream to own. No major problems and coming up on 80000 miles, only routine maintenance needed. It is reliable and comfortable.

Maiden Voyage

First major trip, NY to FL to MO and back. What a hoot. Loaded down with golf clubs and luggage for two people, two climates. Wife managed to get her first speeding ticket in 20 years! Seats are incredibly comfortable, even on the first day, a 17 hour marathon! We're not youngsters anymore but no aches and pains from the ride. If it had another 12 inches in the luggage area, I'd trade my Park Avenue for another one! Driving it like a sports car and still well over 30 mpg! Only other car we've ever owned that was more fun to drive was the original Toyota Celica GT we had in the 70s.
