    Cool Ebay buyers and sellers

    Ever noticed and wondered who all those bidders are that bid on Vehicross parts and why they are not members of this site? And what about the people who are selling parts?

    I guess it is possible that someone could own a Vehicross without somehow being passionate about it. But the Vehicross, to me anyway, is a polarizing vehicle...you either love it and think it is unbelievably unique and beautiful or you hate it and think it is butt ugly. So how could a person own a Vehicross and to them it's just another SUV, just transportation that gets them from one place to another?

    Trust me Navi, I would say that more than half of the VX owners in this country are not as passionate as we are. Here in Reno, there are at least 5 or 6 other VXers, and you know, it seems they could care less about what they are driving, much less care enough to join the fam.

    But you can't blame them, after all, we are fanatics, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Well that's what I call a shame!

    But think about it, those dispassionate VX owners had to go through a purchasing process to get their VX. They could have gotten something a little more mainstream more easily.

    It's curious. Hmmm..?

    Mainstream, 4 doors, easier rear access, better mpg....the list can go on and on and I have no idea why someone that treats the unique VX as a normal suv puts up with those things.

    I work a few offices down from another VX owner, told him about the site, left a card on his window and he has yet to ever join........

    not all the same

    I never heard of the VX. Ilived in VT and was looking for a 4wd and happened to see one on display at a dealership still brand new in 2002. I did not even know what it was. I stopped and asked what it was. At first refused a test drive but was convinced. Enjoyed but sticker was way to high. When the dealer kept calling I did a Google and found at least 60 still brand new at 23995. I told him match it or quit calling. He matched it I bought it and it was not til later that I came to enjoy the quircky uniqueness that is the VX. I still enjoy driving it everyday but that does not happen to everyone.

    I see what you're saying I guess. And I do agree that it is a shame that more VXers are not as passionate as we are, but I was just saying that I am glad the folks on here ARE passionate, and not laissez-faire like most of the VXers out there.

    This has been discussed many times, and I should say a lot of the other owners out there are just not as social, or not as computer savvy, or both.
