What do you do with your Vx, (NFPgasmask)

It is stock driven on paved roads I just like the way lether feels against my naked butt

Well, at least you are honest, do you have tinted windows at least?!!!

I've got to believe that "independant" would describe most of us. You're not likely to find many "follow the crowd" types driving VX's.....

haha i fit most of the descriptions listed here..

23 (got it when i was 20 though) white(ish) male.. active (camping 2-3 times a year, hiking, getting into triathlons).. enjoy the attention.. obsessive about the VX

i would also tend to think most VXers could be described as "car people" i get the most comments/ praise from people who like to be around cars

[rowhard]

White, male, >27yrs old? likes outdoors, shoot,

Not sure where that leaves me, I'm 61, my idea of roughing it is waiting 15 minutes for room service, the only thing I like to shoot is Ta-kill-ya shots which you can tell I've had so many of I can no longer spell or say it right. But I am white:gring:

Eric how you're doing with your VX ?

You figured out how to fix the coolant leak ?

It appears to me (as I logged on and off the site all day) that the most common denominator of vx owners (at least those that are active on the thread) is we all appear to have waaay too much free time at work to spend on the computer surfing the vx forum...

LoL X4!!!!!! I was thinkin that we all have a bit of money, anyone who is strapped for money has the wrong car. If you haven't had problems yet, then its a ticking bomb. Parts are so expensive, and hard to get, this is not the "poor" man's car, nor is it the most reliable, with all the threads I have seen about problems and the poorly located alternator, power steering and ac compressor. Not sayin its any less reliable than any other car(it does drink oil in a lot of them), but man, an older civic, sentra, camry or whatnot is for more practical.
So, Vx owners.....not too concerned with practical.

[nfpgasmask]

I would say the VX is impractical, yes, but only not reliable if you neglect it. A well cared for Isuzu will not only last a LOOOOONG time, it will be a vehicle you can depend on.

I do not come on each day and post that everything went and worked well today I log on and post when I have an issue and need help from better mechanics than I on diagnosis and solution.

I believe this is the most common attribute, if you can consider anything common about VX owners. I don't off-road (OK, I did ONCE!), my VX is mostly mod-free (except for the PV1 and slightly larger tires), I don't camp and do "outdoors" things, I'm definitely NOT a social person, and I hate guns!

I bought a VX because it is different! But, it is also tough, great looking, and (yes) reliable! As many know, I traded in a '98 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC Collector's Edition for my VX. Being a CE, it was rare, but it still looked like thousands of other Mark VIII's on the road. It was nice, but it was kind of boring!

VX owners are all the same -- we're DIFFERENT!
