JordanHOST
A buddy of mine needed a ...
JordanHOST
And, uh, it's the stupidest thing, but he needed a window winder for, like, a 1996 Pontiac Vibe.
Mickey BrownGUEST
Yeah.
JordanHOST
And obviously it's obsolete, so he sent one away to China, and they 3D printed him a metal one, so it won't break anymore.
Chris TheodoreGUEST
And you had, uh, in the US market, you had Toyota doing the, um...
Chris TheodoreGUEST
Oh, well, the Pontiac Vibe was a Toyota clone.
Perry SternGUEST
The Matrix.
Chris TheodoreGUEST
Matrix.
Chris TheodoreGUEST
And we did a lot of research, and in one of the chapters, we tell you how you get inside the customer's, uh, head to get an emotional reaction, a reptilian response.
Chris TheodoreGUEST
You see it, you love it, you gotta have it.
Chris TheodoreGUEST
How do you get that? And then how do you marry that with the functionality of a vehicle? So we created a market, and believe it or not, PT Cruiser outsold the, the Pontiac Vibe and the Toyota Matrix combined by a lot, and made money.
Chris TheodoreGUEST
Now, and allowed Chrysler to sell more pickup trucks too, 'cause we classified it as a truck.
Shaul DogHOST
It's just like, "Ah." Um, yeah, the passenger side ball joint, I couldn't get that off.
Shaul DogHOST
But see, Toyota is who made the Pontiac Vibe, and the Pontiac Vibe and Toyota Matrix are v- pretty much mechanically the same vehicle.
Shaul DogHOST
And Toyota puts a lot of thought into their manufacturing.
Shaul DogHOST
I've seen this in, in, in their design and everything.
ChrismHOST
She lived in her Prius and I lived in my Pontiac, uh, Vibe.
ChrismHOST
If you know what a Pontiac Vibe is, you know how small that is.
ChrismHOST
So, you know- She's stressing you.
ChrismHOST
She's taking away your familiar pleasures.
Clark HowardHOST
Polestar.
Krista DiBiaseHOST
"With their upcoming forced exit from the US market, would you trust th- that repairs and software updates will continue to be supported? For the record, I drive a 2005 Pontiac Vibe that I bought with cash 20 years ago."
Clark HowardHOST
No way, no way.
Krista DiBiaseHOST

Lori CrowsonGUEST
And now I got something walking up to the, to the car.
Lori CrowsonGUEST
I was in a Pontiac Vibe.
Lori CrowsonGUEST
And, uh, so it was a smallish car.
Lori CrowsonGUEST
And I, I heard it walk up to the car, and I'm thinking, "Okay, what's it gonna do?" And I smelled it when it got close.
Everett JayHOST
At the last-minute ditch, they decided- That the design that they had come up with was good enough.
Everett JayHOST
Had they put a Pontiac Vibe front end on an Aztek, even with that weird-ass back end, it w- still would've looked a little better.
Everett JayHOST
Just take a look at the Buick Rendezvous, built off the same platform.
Everett JayHOST
Looks a little bit better.
