"diverse bunch of owners"
Despite our diversity, there must be some commonality.
I'll go with 'social'
Look at the number of posts here & you'll notice that we are a talkative group. Even the 'wet behind the ears' newbies talk up a storm. Case in point is Mr. Marlin here - only a member for 3 months & look at the controversy he has generated. Maybe he's just too young to realize that 'old & sneeky' beats 'young & energetic' hands down ... every time.

This it what happens when you do 5 deployments over 9 years at sea. There isn't a whole lot to talk about at 3 in the morning and you have to be there 6hrs straight at a time. Arguing is the only entertaining thing.
Back to the thread, I would like to add obsessive.
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

This thread won't be that much fun if you just throw out words. You have to justify why it applies.

Fine, if you hadn't noticed, I changed my signature, I realized how crazy it made me look. I spent thousands in the last few months upgrading my Vx, maintenance, planning for Moab, goin to Uhwarrie in a few weeks, mods. I am obsessed!!!!!!!!!! Looking at pics and number of posts on this forum, we are all obsessive."I would like to add obsessive"

"I changed my signature"
I thought you were just taking my comment on 'people who generalize' to a whole new level.
The obsessive nature of VX owners is rather self explanitory - my comment was really for the next thread participants.

This is an interesting thread.
To me the most expertise FBI profiler would have a hard time trying to put together the puzzle about what went thru the mind of a VX'er when he choose to get his hands on it. It's difficult to say though.
I believe the word "GO FURTHER" has to do a lot with it,I mean,that's what I though of when i saw the VX for the 1rst time ever,it caused an psicologcal disturbance in our minds,that's probably why your wife told you we're all crazy.....yeah,I agree with her.
The funniest VX "moment" I can recall of was with my girl friend;She were in venezuela when i bought the VX,at home I sent her few pics of the truck thru my cell to her laptop,after she opened she called me asking the common question: Que carajo es eso ? English translate: WTH is that? I told her: Vehicross honey,her replay:Te volvistes loco;English translate: Are you crazy ? That thing looks weird My replay: probably i just went further LOL
The day i went to pick her up @ the airport & we walked out the exit gate my girl saw the THING out there awaiting for her to drive home she spinned around the "THING" & asked me : This thing comes with a helmet & oxigen gas mask,right? I told her: hey! Now you sounds weird though.She show me her nice smile,a quick wink & wisper : I love it.
Now,is deffinetly certain that driving a VX doesn't has nothing to do with your annual income,your educational degree,if you are single,divorced,live in US or australia,you're in NSA relationship or your wife just caught you chatting over the internet with your ex,if you collect playboy magazines,if you stil live with parents & got married 5 years ago or whatever comes into your mind.
So the FBI got lot of work to figured out a VX'er profile
My quote to the thread is VX is :
Mam....Dad....I don't want to be like you.......I want to drive a VX

Active outdoors not in my vocabulary

Really? What do you do with your Vx, or are you one of those crazies that lowered it?!!! Sorry to those who lowered their Vx, but I just don't get it.
How about gun owners? Do most Vxers own guns?

I'm sure the FBI already have a file on me!
