well, i'm stuck in tulsa, oklahoma for a couple months with work, but i finally had an oppurtunity to get to know the VX a little better today. it was pouring here all morning so the girlfriend and i went and found a local hot spot for mudding and gave the vx a good workout.
let me say i'm thoroughly impressed with the 4wd system in 4 low. the terra grapplers aren't true mud tires so i was cautious at first. but the vx plowed through the nasty stuff so easily that i quickly found myself cruising into water that i'd hesitate to take my brother's '74 CJ-5 with 32"s through. i wish there was a way to monitor how often the limited slip rear diff kicks in because my brother's CJ-5 with open front and rear diffs never performed as well as the VX did today.
anyway, we had a great time. too bad it was raining cats and dogs the whole time or i would've gotten out and snapped some pics.
