    Thanks for the guidance, suggestions etc Yep read the check list, but the items These folk neglected to disclose was normal stuff for any auto. They even lied about when it was repainted. Fresh! Just an insult. I'm giving More of a warning to others I guess. I think they picked it up @ auction and found they were over their head. Anyway I will be more than happy to purchase one from someone that discloses what I can expect! Seems like these are where they get used the most snowy, sandy, areas. Not too close to flat FL and California isn't a easy drive back. This is a invite to anyone, what ya got or any U want to help a VX bud to sell. Thanks

    Daytona... Your saying you went to that dealership in Milton, FL? I called them offering 5k out the door and of course they declined. I live two hours from there.

    I wish the guy that owned my VX before me would have came across this forum; when I checked the oil, there was barely any oil on the dip stick. I hope that this guy ran (slick 50?). This will be a good test on the durability of an engine that has been run low on oil for who knows how long.

    WJ,

    Yah but your sanity didn't last though. Didn't you end up selling off the MCS & the ORW is back to being your sole mistress?

    Possible Purchase???? Help me out, I'm a noob

    So today is the first time I've even heard of a VehiCross. I am shopping for a small, off-road capable SUV. I have seen some rave reviews on these things online but wanted your opinion. The dealer is asking $9500. It's a 2001 with 126000 miles. Is it worth the cost? Do these perform well off road? What do you think???

    Here is a quick Google images link to the search term... "Vehicross Moab"

    https://www.google.com/search?q=vehi...ed=0CAYQ_AUoAQ

    Hopefully this answers your question.
