Why is my VX not as cool as a JEEP ?

[coachreed]

Ok, I have an Ironman VX, and my buddy has a Jeep XJ.....
Anyways my vx is just NOT as cool as his Jeep. What can I do to change this ?
Why does mine look like a mini-van and his look rugged ? I don't get it. I have big tires and stuff, but it still isn't very cool compared to a JEEP. I wish I would have gotten a rubicon........

Just for the record, in case you don't read my later reply or replies, the post above was made by my friend with the "cool" jeep... trying to stir the pot... trying to have fun at my expense. I could have edited it or erased it all together (I think), but why? Its already been said, and I aint running and hiding. This could be fun? lol Please read all comments and replies before chastising (sp?) me... especially MY comments and replies! I LOVE my VX!

I don't think i would post that on this board ! they will bash you for sure ! shawn ;eekg; ;eekp; ;eekr;

[Reg Hinnant]

If you dont know.....mabe you SHOULD have got a Jeep!

[ojmagg]

Oh yeah...we forgot to tell you...it's not the truck...

Its because you're a tool.Its because you're a tool.

I put some Mickey thompsons on there and it looks pretty rugged. My buddy with a Jeep w/33's just loves my car in fact he wants one!

Take the VX offroading with your freinds Jeep and see what you think then. After that you can go race him on the street just to rub it in a little.

As mentioned before you are really going to get bashed on this one!

Tisk, Tisk,
Is this a popularity contest or are you trying to fit in?
Both are cool vehicles, each one with different attributes. I owned a 2000 XJ only 6 months before trading it in for a VX. If i could, i would own both, but the VX is much more versatile.

Oh boy.... you really said mini-van??

I'm assuming coachreed is just joking, or someone else has gotten ahold of his handle, right? This doesn't sound like something that would come from him/her.

Why even bother with this post...

I'm proud of my VX friends for handling this post in such a classy way. From time to time there is someone trying to "push our buttons", but we know better...VX rules!

[Anita]

ooooooo.... just wait for the "others" to read it.

Coachreed, nothin wrong with liking the jeep.. you should check the gallery for pics of those who have added cool mods and start transforming your VX into what you will be satisfied with.

However, I'm sure you know some razzing will happen... ;Dr;

[AnalogVX]

Sure, go ahead and get a Jeep. You have made a lot of friends here and I'm sure you would have no trouble finding a strap.

BINGO! I am certain I didn't log out of my account when on at work today... I would assume that Chris (my buddy with the "cool" jeep) has been busy having fun at my expense. Yeah, I could delete my post and erase the whole thing, but I find it MOST entertaining. Yeah, I love my VX... and DO like jeeps... but not enough to call my VX a mini-van... ANYONE here who has read any of my posts should know that. Heck, ask Inaba (Josh), he was out with a couple friends of mine and I and knows that I was the one who took the first chance with lots of stuff. I know my VX is VERY capable and I get compliments on it all the time... NO, I am not really concerned whether or not people like my ride. Chris is always making comments about the VX... razzing me about my decision because I was looking at getting a Rubicon before I decided on the VX... he still thinks that I should have gotten the Rubi... but for another $10K more, I'll take my VX anyway... actually... if price wasn't in the picture... I'd still take my VX... Its more versatile IMO and since I am a gadgeteer (A/V systems), I am happy to know that I can deck my ride out with the DVD players and TV's and not worry about it all getting ganked in two seconds. I also drive lots of long trips, so I am happy that I won't be deaf from the flapping soft top after 20 hours in the car at a time. I look forward to seeing the other replies to this thread. Hey, even if he hadn't done it, it was funny to see how people would reply to this kind of thread. No, you can't offend me by hacking on me for this type of stuff... SPAZZ knows that. I look forward to owning my VX for many years to come. See you guys on the board!

BTW, my friend Chris has broken down and complimented me on how stout the VX looks... but it took me getting rid of my street tires and replacing them with my Nitto Terra Grapplers to get him to change... oh, and the fact that I have proven my worthyness agains the Jeep... I'll try ANYTHING he tries... and am not afraid to be the pioneer.

Later!

Coach <--- not the actual originator of this thread!

[Dallas4u]

That's what I thought... yo're pretty new, but from your other posts, I still had faith in you!

By the way, SPAZZ did rag on you a bit on this thread... I guess 'cause he knows you can handle it

I'm not sure what your saying... what I am saying is that the NEW Rubicons here have EVERY option and sticker for around $29K... I paid $18K for my VX... I'll take my VX over the Rubicon ANYDAY! Sure, you get front and rear airlockers with the Rubi... and it may be kick ***, but I'll take my VX over it. Just my opinion.

TTYL!

Coach <--- innocent to this thread! lol
