VX Ownership and the Animal Magnetism Effect

[Perry]

My new VX is almost here... I can't wait to see what kind of reaction I get from the ladies... If anything atleast I can break the ice in parking lots by polling their opinion of the how the VX looks... in case one insults my ride, I will be sure to have a couple childish comebacks ready. I know a good one having to do with rubber and glue... it stings bad.

The Animal Magnetism Effect - Part II…


While I’ve had several people inquire about our VehiCROSS since my last report (a number of whom were female; and more than a few of those have practically telegraphed the old ‘I’m available’ message)… what happened tonight really gave me a laugh.


Kathy sent me out this evening to get her a couple of hot dogs from the local Dairy Queen – so I hit the drive-thru. --- Once I arrived at the window, things started out normal enough – the young girl confirmed my order, took my money, and handed me the bag… but while I was waiting for my change, another (far too) young lady came to the window and started asking all sorts of questions about the VX…

“What IS that?”
“Who makes it?”
“Is it fast? It sure LOOKS fast!”
“Oooooo, look at those seats! Did it come with those?”

Meanwhile, the first gal handed me my change - and I was already well-aware of the line of cars behind me.

“Hey y’all, come and look at this car!”

To which, almost instantly, a veritable stampede of forbidden pulchritude occurred.

(For the record - Our Dairy Queen is staffed almost exclusively by high school-aged females, nearly all of which are capable of turning heads to the point of causing whiplash – It’s actually a bit creepy really; and gives you cause to wonder about the manager’s motives, be they ulterior or otherwise.)


Anyway, not wanting to hold-up the line, I simply smiled and drove away (OK, I suppose ‘grinned ear-to-ear’ is probably more like it)… But as I was waiting to pull out into traffic, I looked into my driver’s side mirror and saw that most (if not all) of the staff had left their posts and were gawking out the front window at the VX’s backside.


If any of you unattached teenaged male VX owners have been planning a road trip for Spring Break, you might want to give some serious thought to routing your trip through southernmost WV.

Smiley, I'm forwarding that post to Kathy right now! :P

And just who do you think I told the story to first, as soon as I got home?

Her reply: "So, I guess you'll be wanting to go to Dairy Queen every day now, huh?"

Yep, she’s a keeper!

I don't get any reaction while in my VX. Probably because people around here are used to seeing a porsche every other car in a traffic line up.

Cool or rare car-wise, there's really not a lot to look at here... it’s a small town. --- There’s a 930, a Cayenne, some `60s & `70s muscle cars (including a truly drop-dead-gorgeous Plum Crazy Challenger), and ONE VehiCROSS.

Oh it hurts to be 30...

Boo-hoo! (says a guy who’s almost 40 that’s been off the market for nearly a decade-and-a-half )

yea i have the exact same problem...everyone around here has their cayenne and their 2006 corvette and S8's....so i dont really get any comments or looks....every once in a while ill get someone who is just a little curious maybe...kinda a bummer after hearing all your stories...

Go to Canada. The Ironman literally stopped traffic on a number of occasions.
The Dragon didn't turn as many heads, I figured that it was because it was a little more sedate in appearance, plus it was towing a ridiculously large U-Hual trailer.


Now that I'm back in the US, the only thing my VX attracts are dudes. Big, hairy dudes....
