Used Pontiac Vibe (mine) for Sale? Maybe!

We're thinking about selling a car. . . my car. I love this car, so it's a bit hard for me to contemplate. But really, do we need 2 cars when I live <2 miles from work? So as hard as it is for me to do this - I'm thinking seriously about selling the first new car I've ever bought. I've taken good good care of my Vibe, so I'm looking for a good home for it. I'll throw some pictures of the car up here shortly, but in the meantime, here's the deets. Get in touch if you're interested in seeing it or a test drive. I don't know what I would accept yet for an offer, but I'll edit this post as soon as I do know.
