Talking Just days away from my new Vue!

Hi all,

I think the Vue will be the easiest hybrid to get for a little while. I ordered mine during the summer and I just a few days away from it being delivered. They were having trouble with them at the factory. It turned out the computer connection a mechanic would use to plug into was given the computer an error message. As soon as it is fixed they Vues will be shipped to the dealers. My recommendation is order one and put the $500 deposit down. As soon as it comes in I'll post some pics to the site.

What configuration or options? I'm mostly interested in the transmission you went with.

there's only one transmission choice, HYBRID. A 4 speed hydramatic and an electric motor that gives 115 pounds of torque and a 36 volt battery capable of delivering 10KW peak of power at one point.

The A/C has economy mode, so it can run the AC when the car is stopped, max of 2 mins I've been told.

I just got my Vue and am tracking the mileage. I love the styling and am happy with the car and the price.

I have gotten 24.5 MPG so far after 221 miles. Why can't I add this into the database with the other cars on this site?

Can be more specific about what you tried to do?

I can't add it as a hybrid. I have now added it as a non-hybrid car for now.
