    hmmmm.....you do look kinda like that caveman...all fuzzy and stuff....

    back on topic....you might contact "Osteomata" in Miami. He JUST sold his low mileage Proton last week....but he's a rally nice guy and probably would take a look for you. His name is Jack.

    Agreed with everyone else even tho I am late to the response party. I drove 4 hours to pick up mine that had 69k miles on it. Now 6 years (this August) and 175k miles, 4 Moabs later engine still good no issues. Course I am a little "harder" on my truck than most ..

    Miles mean nothing.

    Hi Sue,
    Your Photoshopped VX makes you look like a Munchkin.

    ^^^ My favorite advice here.

    I was adamant about getting a VX with less than 75k miles. But... I bought one with 120,000 miles on the clock because it came with a thick folder full of maintenance records and it was in such good shape I was convinced it had been "well loved" and cared for in the past.

    Best of luck in finding something that gives you a good vibe!

    I know I am late to the party. But What are you all talking about. Of course that is way too many miles. TOO MANY MILES!

    In fact I think its an insult. You should pm the seller's name address and ph# so I can all call them up and give them a piece of my mind.
