    love my VX!

    first snow (and unexpected too) of the season and i live on a particularly bad road... so i woke up this morning to like 4 cars and 2 buses disabled on the side of the road... my vx towed out one of the cars and drove one of the disabled drivers back home without even breaking a sweat

    My VX only home has been in Florida. Just sun and sand.
    She has never seen snow. Maybe one day I will take her to the cold country.

    I can honestly say I've never driven anything better in the snow, and I’ve driven everything. I think?
    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

    the short wheel base is great and terrible.. great cause all the weight is right over the wheels.. but it does want to spin on you too if you arent careful

    lol! Yeah, I’ve never driven one of those. But from what I understand the Typhoon is awesome entail you turn a corner, then it kills you.

    Yep, mine has seen it's fair share of snow. And the salty roads that come with it, which like to chew on metal like no tomorrow. Upkeep is a pain in the arse in the winter around here.

    Getting snow outside as I type this. Not much but enough to bring out the paranoia in every motorist out there.
