Its a Vehicross

Its been about eight months now since I found my 1999 Ironman Vehicross. At the time I wasn't even look-n to buy a different car but I went out to lunch one day and saw this car sit-n on a car lot, the minute I saw it I knew I had to get it...Long story short I bought it over my lunch hour, people at my work place thought I was crazy because I came back and told them I bought a car. I read several things about the Vehicross and the one thing that stood out was that people will always be look-n your way and even stop-n you to ask what kind of car it is. I now know this is all too true. The first day I had it, I pulled into a gas station and I heard this elderly couple say-n "what is it, honey what is that!" Even when drive-n it you DO always have people look-n at ya.. In the months I have owned it I have had no trouble, it had 27,000 miles on it when I got it and it now has 41,000.(i drive alot) I did have the entire front-end repainted because of a few bad spots in the paint but other than that its been a complete joy to have.. I have bought a few mods, nothing major, bra, light covers, and Tones hitch which I still have yet to use. Oh, and my license plates say A'UNEQ1 because thats for sure what it is..Anyone out there who is think-n about getting one, if you can find one GET IT!!! You will not be let down.. They are for sure not for everyone, if you don't like stand-n out, draw-n attention to yourself don't get it...but if your like me and love to be different this car was made just for you!!! Never have I seen a four wheel drive SUV not only drive like a sports car but look like one too...My only question is why didn't I have one of these sooner???

Welcome!! Glad to see a new owner join our ever growing family!

WOW! A very enthusiastic post from someone who has even owned one for a bit! I am always happy to read posts like this! It makes me VERY eager to get back home and drive mine!!!

Thanks for the read!

Damnit man! I'm dying to get my hands on this thing... and now that I've read this thread... I want it even more! I only have to remove my audio/video system from my Trans Am that I am trading in and I will be the happy owner of a 2000 Ironman Edition! I can't wait! I'll report back then!

Coach... aka Randy!

By the time Moab comes around, I will have driven my Foxfire 24k in its first year. VX's are addicting and magic.

>>>Changed the link style.. I wanted to see your VX here.. WSG

Welcome! Glad to know another Midwest VXer knows of the forum. You'll find a great bunch of people are owners of this wild ride. Tru's brand-spankin'-new gleaming Foxfire was on Moab's trails before the ink was dry on the sale's contract! :yesr: Gotta love this crowd! I hope we can have a major Midwest VX meet sometime.

NocturnalVX; Any interest in a midwest meet in a couple of weeks. I'm in the St. Louis area, maybe somewhere in mid'Illinois. Springfield? I think a # of board readers/members could drive,take part and be home in the same day. Any Interest out there? Sound off and if interested, throw out a date.
