Thanks, guys.
I'm having a hard time getting excited about the Vibe. Don't get me wrong, it's a great little car and turns in good numbers. It's just that I haven't gotten over Goldie yet. She was so much fun to drive. She would pulse and glide like there was no tomorrow. She transmitted alot of 'feel'. I never even installed a vacuum gauge in her and my last tank almost reached 40 mpg. It was all seat of the pants.
The Vibe doesn't coast as well. It doesn't let me know when to shift. The darn thing is so reticent that I don't feel like I can drive her well...yet. Maybe if I punch a hole in the muffler she would talk to me.
She feels...soulless.
A Scangauge has popped to the top of my Things to Buy list.
