simplyputsi 0 #129 November 10, 2006 gonna have to agree on the maintenance issues. I just reached 100,000 on my civic and it cost me 6 hundred something for belt maintenance. That included a new timing. I still need to do the plugs and wires. For having the thing for 6 years I'd have to say 6 hundred is a bargain. I have a friend with a vw and they charge him crazy amounts for the tiniest things. He had to pay something like 50 for a pollen filter. Give me a break. I like VW but they are spensive. Just get a toyota tacoma. You'd be surprised at the gas mileage and well you'll learn to park it somehow.Skymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yardhippie 0 #131 November 10, 2006 QuoteWhy dont you just get another vibe? You liked that car. I consider it. But I really wanted the GT version. (insert jokes here) The GT version was supercharged (180hp vs. 130 hp) AND all wheel drive. They still have the AWD version but its a wimpy 122 hp. I really would like something with a bit more ZIP for ATL traffic.Goddam dirty hippies piss me off! ~GFD "What do I get for closing your rig?" ~ me "Anything you want." ~ female skydiver Mohoso Rodriguez #865 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
