    The way I look at it,if you're not going to get much for it...keep it...buy what ever for a DD Not even being biased...It is the most unique vehicle out there!

    I agree with Scott here. If you're not gonna get anything for it in the trade, then just keep it and buy the Jeep outright. If they are only gonna give you $3000 thats only about $50 a month on a payment. Hell, i'll take a VX for that.

    Definitely avoid trading in at dealerships. Its convenient but always a rip off.

    Tom, I feel ya....

    I have been debating the same thing for a little over a year now. My VX just sits in my garage and only gets about 2500-3k miles a year. That's good and all, but it's also a waste.

    I had that scare recently with a possible major engine issue, and for the most part, it is resolved (EGR line had snapped and was rattling everywhere.... but didn't throw a CEL). I still think there may be some valve lashing that I can correct, but that's pretty minor right now. ABS is crud, but big surprise there.

    Other than those couple of things, it is a nearly flawless, low mileage, S/C'd VX. I would ONLY ever sell to someone here who was looking or a replacement or second (or third... or fourth....). Basically, someone who knows it's unique value. And hopefully, not one of you clowns who butchers them for trail use.

    We shall see though.... we shall see....

    I cant beleive

    how little carmax is offering. It makes the dealership look positively generous and we know how crooked they are.

    Absolutely! I plan on following Jay over to the dark side & get a 2dr Rubicon Wrangler when I pull the trigger on a new vehicle. However... I will NOT get rid of the VX, but keep it as another toy (not a DD).
