  • Great Little Big Car - 2004 Pontiac Vibe
    By -

    Has a five speed manual with basic engine. With rear seats down, will take two bicycles and camping gear for a week. With front seat down will take eight foot objects like lumber or a projection screen. On interstate travel with the cruise on 70 MPH, delivers 40 to 44 MPG using quality regular gas. Roomy rear seat even for those over 6 foot. On interstate trips with two couples and all luggage inside is comfortable. Luggage did go to six inches from the top of the rear window. Mileage also 44 MPG under these conditions in the Midwest. Traveling near Breckenridge/Frisco, CO (continental divide) vehicle was underpowered going up very steep hills. Delivered 40 MPG. Great on snow.

    My wife drives this daily many miles. Has been very reliable. We had a little trouble with the stereo when we first got it. None since. The only other problem has benn brake rotors getting warped and making car shake at times. We have replaced rotors twice and pads three times. No other problems.

  • I Love My Vibe - 2004 Pontiac Vibe

    All I can say about my Vibe is WOW. The car ride is solid,verry quite for the most part. The gas usage is great. The colors offered is out of site its hard to choose. The interior options is great, with all the options that is offered their is nothing to want for. I get a new auto about every 18 month and I can honestly say that, I will mostly likely get another vibe,this is one on the nisest car I have ever owned.

  • Lovin my Vibe - 2004 Pontiac Vibe
    By -

    I have owned my 2003 Vibe since July of this year. I have had nothing but kudos for this automobile. Its comfortable (I have back problems 7 disc surgeries) the seating fits me exceptionally well I am 6 ft tall, 224 lbs with a large build. My wife and i took the Vibe to New Hampshire this year and we got 31.5 mpg on the highway and 29 mpg around North Conway. The car is a dream to drive, it handles well, and most of all its an absolute BLAST to drive. Cant say enough good things about it.

  • Best inexpensive car ever owned - 2004 Pontiac Vibe

    I have driven this car for over 30,000 miles with not one problem...And it keeps going...I use only synthetic oil and change it every 7,000 miles...

  • Utilitarian yet sporty - 2004 Pontiac Vibe
    By -

    I purchased the Vibe specifically for its versatility, but I also wanted to have a little fun driving it, so I went with the GT build. Ive yet to come across a home improvement project or purchase that I havent been able to haul home in the Vibe. Ive tiled my kitchen (6X4 sheets of backer board fit perfectly), relandscaped the yard, hauled home a dinette set (the rack on the top came in handy there) and a headboard. Then theres the sporty side - the car handles like a dream. It sits high enough to see over the other compact cars, yet theres almost no sway. The steering is extremely tight and the acceleration is just awesome.

  • Awsome New Ride, I Love It!!! - 2004 Pontiac Vibe
    By -

    I had my doubts at first, but once I got behind that wheel for the first time, I knew it was meant to be! I fell in love with this car on site, fully loaded with all the extras that I wanted and then some. I converted rather quickly as I was set on the Matrix, but was treated much better at the Pontiac dealership, glad I changed my mind!

  • WITH $5000 OFF ONLY 10S - 2004 Pontiac Vibe
    By -

    Get toyota quality with GM big time rebates and incentives in a small SUV package with mid 30s MPG. I haul cement in it. I trailer it. I hug the corners like a fat tired car. Red line limiter kicks in about 6700. Get snow tires the stock ones are more for performance, but not bad in the snow. No vehicle on the market compares Yes it is manufactured in California USA :)

    Love my 2004 Fusion Orange Metallic Vibe! The Moons and Tunes and the Power package is worth the extra money.
