    I think the VX is the only Isuzu (SUV/Truck) I haven't owned.

    I have had/have:
    std cab and spacecab P'up
    1st and 2nd gen Rodeo
    1st and 2nd gen Trooper
    1st and 2nd gen Trooper RS
    1st and 2nd gen Amigo/Rodeo Sport
    Axiom (since there isn't a 1st/2nd gen I own 2 of them)
    and now a VX to add to the herd...

    May be because of the way to pronounce your hometown is kinda "interesting"
    you haven't find a VX ?
    Dakar was just the begining.

    New to VX's

    Hello are you lucky VX owners. I remember when these vehicles first came out and have loved them ever since. But now I want one. I've just gotten over the motorcycle phase, bought an 07 Gixxer 1000 last August, girlfriend and insurance company hated it, and didn't know what to get next. Well the bike is gone, and I have decided to start researching and pricing these cool vehicles. The more I read, the more I want one. So I have a few questions about them. Availibility of replacement parts, any known problems I should be looking for when I find one, durability, difference in years(99-01), etc. Thanks for any help/advice you can share. Also seems to be a great forum.

    Glenn,

    On the home page on the left sidebar there is a search function. I just did a quick search using "new owner questions" and came up with 3 pages of threads. Almost every one of those threads contain hyperlinks to other threads. Enjoy your next 6-8 hours of surfing

    Welcome Glenn- You'll love this place! Lots of info!

    Check out this thread, it covers many many questions a prospective owner would be interested in it.
    http://www.vehicross.info/forums/showthread.php?t=17399

    From that post, I created a pretty comprehensive questionnaire very specific to the VX. It will help you know what to ask and what to check for. SInce the truck is basically 10-12+ yrs old now, we've become aware of many issues that may arise over time, so it's pretty helpful.
    (As an FYI, we came up with a 2nd version and expanded it to be about 100 questions....it's really detailed. Here's a link to the long one in cause you get interested:

    Here's some additional threads on the important issue of oil usage:

    Several theories on Isuzu design defect in rings that causes oil consumption:

    Well, here she is, it is absolutly rust free... Does need a few things and she'll be really nice. Gotta track down a Hood, Left Headlight and Left Parking light lens for the bumper, previous owner had a little run-in with something.

    No worries.
    Those eagles look close to snowflakes.
    I had snowflakes on my old Isuzu MU, and there are a couple of VXs running around with them on.

    (Not that I have seen them - the only VX I have ever seen in the flesh is my own.)

    Your ebony looks good.
    Hope you get the defects cleaned up ok.
