bobmaxed Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hi The family vehicle had been a Pontiac Vibe. We've had two of them and being that they had Toyota power trains they were bulit proof. Daily, my wife would get the Vibe and I had a Mazda Miata. But I totaled the Miata on an Icy bridge (no one hurt). It was my wife's turn for a new car. We've had other Ford products: an Aerostar and two Taurus wagons. One thing that my wife had to have was a higher driving height. The Vibe was good but most hatches were too low. Test drove the Mazda5, Prius V and the C-Max. She picked the C-Max and I said fine as long as it didn't have that silly powered lift back. $1,000 was just to much in my mind. The standard lift back opens just fine. The Vibe is now my daily driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kostby Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Welcome from another Hoosier (Lebanon), recent C-MAX purchaser, and Vibe owner! We just purchased a new C-MAX for my wife about a month ago. And if you're not aware, check out a family-friendly Vibe forum at www.genvibe.com. (I'm kostby over there too.)

Let me know if there's anything I can help you with as you and your wife get to know your new car. :) Ashley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
