Anybody has any experience with these vehicles?
There was a thread on the Vue a few weeks ago, try searching at http://forum.slowtwitch.com/gforum.cgi?do=search;
.
I have a VUE. Considering the price its a decent vehicle. If you are looking for reliable transportation for a fair price (especially with the current GM-Employee Discount for Everyone) its a good deal.
Check out the other thread and if you have more Qs just PM me.

I have the VUE also and really like it. The best thing about (tri related) is that you can rack your bike inside. Saturn sells an internal bike rack that keeps your bike safe and sound INSIDE the car. You just have to put the back seat down and take the front wheel off the bike. I love it. It will rack 2 bikes. I do have to take my saddle off though.
OR you can save yourself a hundred-something bucks and get a board and a piece of plywood, put a bolt-on fork mount on the board, mount the board to the plywood, attach 2 bungees to the board to hook to the tiedowns in the back.
Doesn’t look as pretty but it will save you a couple o’bucks. No fix for the seat removal issue though.
I wish that I had bought a 2" aftermarket hitch rather than the 1.5 that came from Saturn - I have a hitch rack that needs an extender to work in a 1.5". Oh well. Next time.
