I declined---she deserves better. The problem is it's sitting in the garage more than it's being driven. I have an upcoming retirement in December and momma & I were considering a "touring" car to travel about. If I do go out and get a Lexus Hybrid or Infiniti then I'm looking at 3 autos (the VX and my '06 Frontier) with each needing insurance.

    So as I said I'm not really sure what to do. I guess I'll fall back to a lesson my daddy taught me early in life in that "if you don't know what to do then do nothing--things usually will take care of themselves".

    If I find the right owner I'll let the jewel go but I'm not flexible on the price so she'll be mine for a while longer I think.....and I'll have no regrets. None at all.

    Well...at least that's of some comfort to me...

    And speaking as a "nasty sasquach looking guy"...I'd like to point out, we ain't all bad...

    However I do agree, she deserves better than having her rear interior gutted & filled with tools...

    I'm going to 2nd that Sasquatch remark. Apparently the VX is THE go-to vehicle for us lanky, gangly fur-covered fools. An natural choice given our chosen habitat

    Thousand pardons. I had no clue there were this many "megafauna cryptid yeti brown hybrids" out there lurking about. I hold no ill will and please keep your shirts on (for those of us with allergies). Drive on I say, and may your windows always have a dark tint.

    Vin: #0764
    Miles: 170,000
    Me: NOT a Sasquatch, but am the 4th owner of this VX. The 2 previous owners were also members on this board. In fact, I just searched and emailed the guy who owned it before the person I purchased from. He confirmed some of the engine work I was told about and basically said great things about the truck. I love this site!

    My other cars:
    2003 Porsche 996 Carrera Coupe (My garage queen)
    2002 BMW 325CI Coupe (selling to make room for the VX)
