suuup guys! I joined a lil bit ago and been mostly searching the site for every problem ive had with my Vehicross I just bought!!! Woooot!!!! its a black 01. it has some issue atm that im about to make a new post about. Alarm wont shut off!
Welcome, and wish you luck with that alarm.
Got that taken care of. Thanks to help from here... just had to hook the battery up with the key in the run position try to start it then turn it off and back to start and it started up... my alarm light is off but I don't mind it ... I'm about to ordr a keyless fob off ebay later...
This may sound very weird to most of you, but I just saw my first VX last week. It was Yellow. It was in the employee parking lot of where I work. I did not know of the existence of the VX until now. I immediately fell in love with its stylings. For a vehicle that began production in 1999 it was sure ahead of its time in that aspect. I currently own a HUMMER H3. Now, I would like to pick up a VX for the stable. I'm currently looking. They are few and far between though. There are only 6 for sale within a 300 mile radius from me.
Being so new to the VX world & "kinda cheap" can be a very worrisome combination....so check the questionnaire carefully for some of the known problem areas and see if you can get all the info you can from the seller.
There's absolutely a ton of knowledge on this forum, and you'll be able to get sooooo much info before you buy. Between search and asking, we'll fill ya up with all kinds of good info!
You may want to post info on the one (s) you're looking at, as many members here know or know of the vehicle and might be able to impart some info. Don't think anybody has snipped a VX this way (and hope they never would) so I don't think you have to worry about that.
Good luck!

Here is the listing. Next chance I get I'll probably go check it out. I'll print the list you showed me and bring it along. He's asking $5495. Its a 1999 and it has 130,000 miles. I just did a check on KBB to see the PP value and it says that a VX in good condition with this mileage is around $5485. His price seems a little too high now.

It's even in your own state, WOW! That doesn't happen very often. Many MANY of us have purchased from 1000 - 3000 miles away! I bought in VA, shipped it to AZ. Even if this one's a bomb, you'll at least get to see one up close, sit in it, etc...
Another thing to keep in mind- if there's another VXer in the area of one for sale, you can ask them to "check" it out, we do it all the time! Just post it up and ask if anybody's in the area and can check it out.

I don't know if you are interested,but down here in NYC one dealer is offering two very nice looking VX's both are 2001 in black ebony & kaiser silver for bit less then 10k
Mileage is acceptable for the asking price.
If the price is within your budget i can drive by & check them for you.
Dakar was just the begining.
