    Feel free to show in the article where it was actually proven this was the case then.

    Are you that daft?...Have you no ability to comprehend what's been printed, or even what YOU have written?

    Tell ya what, I've got a really good camera, and I don't mind traveling for a good cause.
    I'll come take your pic for free, as I can think of many good causes that you could be a poster child for.
    RIF comes most readily to mind, and I've got a couple others rolling around in my head, that I'm willing to start foundations for from the ground up...

    I'm serious, I really want to help...
    As I just suggested to circmand, feel free to prove where Chinese VX fakes was proven in the article.

    Otherwise, this just seems ANOTHER case where you seem to be daftly going out of your way to look for ANYTHING you can try to personally prove me wrong about...for which you've become but one of the poster children on this site.

    Qingling Motors (wiki, website) makes various Isuzu vehicles for the Chinese market, including light trucks and several SUV’s. Isuzu has a 20% stake in the company
    RIF indeed.

    I stated if it was under license these are VX but the chinese have made many fakes.

    Do you EVER stop being a D'bag. (That was rhetorical by the way...hence no question mark).

    I WOULD have at least been willing to continue this "discussion" if you hadn't proven it obvious by now that the problem from the very start had been your lack of understanding of the accepted meaning of the term "knock-off".

    If you'd been keeping up with the conversation, you'd have realized that my first comment was a response to the OP's post, and the next response was to those (including you) who were under the impression that the article was saying the VX's themselves were fakes.

    As it is though, you decided to run with, and then double-down on, your OWN misunderstanding and try to make it seem like a misunderstanding on my part...as you ALWAYS do, and are STILL TRYING to do.

    Not that that's anything new with you though.

    Oh Trekie..... You can never admit you might be just a little wrong can you? I agree with LDub and the original posters view of the article. In my opinion any VehiCross not built in Japan by Isuzu directly is a Chinese Knock off. Doesn't matter to me if there was a contract or if kits were sent out by Isuzu or if Isuzu is a partial owner of the company that assembled the kits in China, still a knock off in my opinion, and LDubs opinion and the original poster's opinion. Just because you didn't read the article that way and obviously don't have the same definition for a knock-off product as some of us, does not mean anyone is wrong or right. It just proves that you have a different opinion and a different definition then many people here. Which that fact has been proven many many times on this site over and over again in various different threads.

    What is sad to me is that once again you have proven yourself too immature to have a different opinion and still respect others while expressing yourself. That is great that you think the article proves that these Chinese assembled kits from Isuzu are NOT knock-offs, but LDub, the original poster, myself, and I am sure others do NOT AGREE WITH YOU. Your opinion of the article and your definition of Knock-off are not the gold standard. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but once again you immediately get defensive and try to prove how perfect your opinion is, when quite frankly it is never that cut and dry. Lots of middle ground that you have historically not been willing to admit even exists. I will not respond back to you so feel free to have the last word, just know that you are typically the one that gets defensive, and always has to show other people how wrong they are, and always feels that your opinion immediately trumps others views. This elitist attitude that you have just does not fit in here and thus you will always get push back from members here, simply from your historically bad attitude towards others and their opinions. I already know the defense for yourself that is coming and how you will quote me and tear everything I say apart word for word, and honestly I just don't care. I know plenty of people like you who think they can never be wrong, and communication with you has been futile and always will be pointless, so this will be my only post here. Enjoy your world where you are always right, if you ever want to join us where all of us screw up and say things wrong and respect others opinions/points of view instead of instantly defending ourselves feel free.

    To be honest I thought the same thing at first, but I am glad it was further explained ;-)

    Enough with the drama, where the hell do I get one? I want a Chinese Knock off VX, I have had great luck with direct order from china, HIDs, 6 yrs and still on the orginal bulbs, same with the backup camera/monitor kit and so on. I would roll the dice on an entire truck!

    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.
