yet?

Since i'm not down with street racing, I don't have ancedotal information to confirm my deep seated belief that the VX would make that jeep its bitch.

That commercial pisses me off everytime I see it.

A Local bought the new AEV Rubicon Wrangler with the Hemi V8. Cost him an Arm and a leg but it is tough and fast.

Hopefully Coach can get his VX/Vette going soon.

In my opinion, Jeeps lack the comfort, looks and sophisication of a VX. They can keep their Hemi, I'll stick with my one-of-a-kind VX!

Fact is.... it's STILL.... just a JEEP.

You can put a 454 in a Beetle.... and it's still, just a Beetle.

Damn... the heat is ON! My son leaves for his Christmas vacation on Christmas Eve :( (going to see his mom and her family in Vegas) and won't be back until New Years Day (late night)... which means my Christmas vacation has ZERO excuses for lack of progress... soooooo... I'll be working... anyone who wants to keep my motivated, feel free to drop me a line to check progress on or around 12/24/2004-1/1/2005! rreed17@kc.rr.com or 816-935-4986

BTW, that Rubi in that pictures DOES look pretty badass in my opinion... but after already haveing had three other Wranglers, I won't be going there so quick again... just not that confortable... the only thing I REALLY like about them now is the easy top down.

Later!

Coach... I mean Randy (I often forget who I really am) ;)

Well that IMO is like apples and oranges.
First the AEV Rubi is using a brand new Dodge engine and transmission with factory warranty. All the factory guages and options work with the computer and it has all the smog equipment. With today's ECMs it is not easy as it was in the old days.

I do not think that any one vehicle is the be all to end all SUVs.

A wise man once said :

If everyone had the same taste in women then 99% of us would be SOL.

If divorcee's actually found the "one" then there would be no reason for divorce lawyers.

;Dy;

point is... There will always be something new and better out there. It could exist now or in the future. If we all had the same taste then there would be no fun in owning or trying something different. How would you know what is "better" if you don't and experience new things?
