    Snow? What snow?? VX VIDEO

    Well, as you know North East got hit pretty hard by a snow blizzard. We got about 20+ inches of snow dumped on us since yesterday. To give you an idea of how much snow we got here are some pictures of my burried VX:





    From these pictures, it looks like this baby is not going anywhere. Well, I still decided to attempt to get it out without digging it out. So my wife took the video camera, and I took the wheel... what happened? See for yourself how VX did. (Keep in mind that I am not a professional filmmaker so go easy on me)

    VX SNOWPLOW

    If the video is slow or pauses, try to right click on the link and save the file locally on your PC, then it will play fine. I am not sure what is the bandwith of my server so it could be slow if a few people hit it at the same time. Enjoy

    For the folks with a slow dial-up connection, here is a link to a lower quality video:

    Too Funny!!!
    We only got a measly 12" here in Vermont and didn't have time to shovel the driveway before work. I decided to keep the baby in the garage and take the 2 wheel drive Rodeo to work today...(Isuzu Snowplow)...No problems.
    I lost count...was that a twelve point turn or.....
    Your video was great!

    Thanks Anita and John Yea, twelve point is pretty damn close, but she made it out! I was pretty sure I'll get stuck, so i was pleasantly surprised. My wife's Infinity FX35 would not even move in that snow... then again, she's got 20 inch sports tires which are really summer only.

    Awesome movie Yefim. Really well made. Nice to see the VX in action, proofing that TOD really does seem to make all wheels work equally when needed. Like the next thing to lockers? No wonder we tow jeeps in the snow.
    From Unimog to VX - a serious change in velocity - a small sacrifice in voracity.

    luv it, I would call that a real StormTROOPER, all I have to worry about are the U. V. rays fading my paint.

    Holy Cr*p! Your server broke my download record!

    Haven't even seen the video yet, but my cable modem just hit 704Kbps on the download!!! 10.3MB in 18 seconds flat... that is a new record!

    OK... just watched the video... AWESOME!! And the choice of soundtrack.... TOTALLLLLLY AWESOME! Chris Isaak doing "Let it snow".... saw him in concert here last July and it was one of the best live performances I've ever attended.

    Thanks so much for posting this. It's not even 10am and I've got in my ab workout for the day just from laughing so hard!
