What if... the VX is converted to a 4 door? The donor chassis would either be a Axiom, Trooper or rodeo and maybe a rodeo mid section with VX front end and vx rear end. Is anybody good with photoshop? I wanna see how it would look like.

Thats easy.. its already been done and not using Photoshop!
Say hello to Rodeo stretch 4dr. prototype, now being housed at the Los Angeles Peterson Auto Museum. Created by Isuzu, it traveled to auto shows, but never intended to go into production.

Holy moly!!! That's awesome! I never heard of it. If somebody donate some parts I can do it. Haha.
Holy moly is right! 4x the window fun! :_brickwal....well actually I guess it's technically 2x the fun...
Be careful what you ask for! :laugho::laugho:
Good thing Tim is still goin' be making those brackets....x4!
(guess this came to mind since I was doin' VX window maintenance today:smack:)
Here some pictures of the VX 4 at the Peterson Meet.

To ME, 90% of the "beauty" of the VX is that it IS a 2-door, in a World of "me too" 4-door SUV's! You live in the US and you want to buy a new or reasonably recent manufacture TWO DOOR SUV/PUV........your choices are WHAT exactly?:confused:
That's what I thought....;)
I dunno, I think it looks weird and awkward. IMO it makes the VX a kid carrying grocery getter. No thanks. I like the "coupe" look much, much better.

+1 - Kind of like looking at a stretch Hummer or something. Very obvious that the four door body was an afterthought of an original 2-door design.Quote:

Yeah, I definitely agree. If a 4-door practical SUV is what you want, then you bought the wrong vehicle if you bought a VX.
Just do what I did, save up a small amount of money and go find a nice 4 door 1st gen Trooper! Problem solved, and for cheap!! ;)

The VX4 is not my thing 'though I'd love to have just a tad bit more wheel base out on the trail. And I would much rather have the VX4 dash...It has a few more curves than our squarish "old" looking dash.
+1 - Btw, you guys realize that the VX-4 basically became the Axiom right? Same/similar chassis, engine, drivetrain (2H/TOD/4L), even two-tone interior (on cloth models at least).Quote:

Man i can have that double din screen :(
I saw few axioms,mostly 2004 with the two-tone color in leather interior.
But there's no way i was getting a 4 door'er VX in my driveway,not a chance.
