    If you’re the type of person that will avoid standing in line even if it takes longer to get where you’re going. You might be a VX owner.
    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

    If you’re the type of person that sees a 30 something driving a Ford Taurus as someone that has given up on there dreams. Then you might be a VX owner.

    P.S. Unless it’s an SHO.

    Ahhhh, but much the same as the EMO/goth kids, they all appear the same in their attempt to be different.

    If you have a massive Gas Mask collection and you see every bad situation as an excellent photo opportunity. You might be a VX owner.

    Let's see...

    I'm 42. Goth. Don't really do the outdoors. Don't own guns, nor would I want to. Since I bought it new in 2001, my VX has been very reliable. Lastly, as I have said before, this is the first group of enthusiasts I have really taken to. I would say we are UNIQUE, just like our rides. We pride ourselves on our individuality and feel compelled to make our VXes reflect that. Some mods might be more extreme than others, while some mods are popular by demand. I would agree with us all being obsessive over our VehiCROSS.

    Where do I fit?

    I am 22 now. Female. When I bought my first VX I was 17. I guess you can say I am half white (Irish, Polish and Puerto Rican). Guns are not really my thing. Though I have gone shooting, was pretty good too, and I enjoyed it. I just don't like hunting. I DO love the outdoors though... hiking, off roading, mountain biking, camping, watersports of all kinds... I see us all as having PASSIONATE and HIGHLY ADDICTIVE personalities... (to our rides that is).

    Since LBUD hasn't been active lately, I'll have to include the shameless advertisement.

    VX owners are INFORMED - thanks to this great site. You should go out and make a donation.

    Good point, just in the last 3 months I have been on here, I have learned a ton of stuff about the VX, and had all of my questions answered right away.
    Especially from the dozen or so regulars, thanks guys.(you know who you are)

    not sure, but a few things come to mind:

    Has a desire to be prepared for any situation< can drive on road , off road, through flooded areas, etc.. >
    Has a high appreciation for quality engineering <hand built, well thought out>
    Not only adapts to change, but enjoys it < the vx is not mainstream thinking!>
    Can be unpredictable at times < theres a big hill, lets drive up it!>
    Has a higher than average mechanical/spacial aptitude <yeah, i can tow your JEEP out of that mud hole, but first we need to make a strap out of these here vines!>
    Sees the forest through the trees <yep, theres a big lake on the other side of that hill where the trees dissapear, that explorer might need a tow out of it>

    Don't know if I agree with that - they built a vehicle with one cup holder but two ashtrays, a virtually inaccessible backseat, and windows that drink silicon spray almost as rapidly as the engine does gasoline. But you're right, it is a sexy beast.

    Damn dude, don't you know you're supposed to keep that to yourself? But hey, every family needs a black sheep right?
