My Vx is used...or not used...as a garage queen...
I really have to say, however, that although I never had a room mate or house mate (other than my Beloved One), I think the only person on planet earth that I would ever be able to co-habitate with is Rickshaw...and I thought I was the only one that anal-retentive/Obsessive-compulsive! Luv ya, Bro...
I use mine only as a daily driver.
I only got my Vehicross for it's looks and rarity as I can't bring myself to drive a mundane looking everyday car that you see 10 of on the road side by side.
Mine will never go offroad and will be babied as long as I own it.
Rode my bicycle to work everyday last week. The VX is shined up and enjoyable for my eyes sitting in the garage. Had a beer this evening out there and had a supreme feeling of satisfaction with owning it. Good stuff.
I use mine to dream up projects, spend a bunch of money on the supplies, and then procrastinate getting them done. It's complicated. But it looks so awesome in my mind's eye all finished!
Some day...

EDIT: And oh yeah, daily driver too.
Yup V, I've got that same problem x10. Everywhere I walk around here I see tons of projects that will look so nice when they are done. The VX is on a looong list. It's an enjoyable problem to have though...:thumbup::_wrench:
way more daily drivers than i originally thought there would be - very cool
I drive very rarely and mostly to car shows.
My OG Proton is my daily driver. My 2nd Proton...aka: Junior...is a work in progress and might one day be as nice as Senior and maybe even have some extra mods on him to be a show car.
Crushing beer cans!!!
Daily driver when the temps fall below 50 degrees.
Complimentary snow rescue (pulled a dozen victims out of drifts and ditches in the latest blizzard).
Costco runs.
Bewildering other drivers wondering what the hell it is.
Intimidating Land Rover owners, particularly those of the Evoque.
Beach trips.
Ski trips.
Bike trips.
Daydream scenario catalyst.
Money sink.
Fountain of youth.
Smile generator.

My S10 ZR2 has the boring job of lugging my butt to work!
car shows and polishing.
I live only 10 miles from work so I DD my VX half the week and hunt for Vettes and Vipers with my EVO the other half!!! Just kidding! I drive like an Old Man Most of the time, I can't afford the tickets!!!
I use it for all three. The other would be making my wife happy by letting her drive it once in a while.
That's cool!!!!Quote:

We really put VX's through their paces out here, but there couldn't be a more perfect vehicle than the VX for Alaska. To prove that point....there are only 30,000 in this land locked town and there are 4 VX's....and all still running and in good condition. Unfortunately, the other 3 don't seem to like forums.....the wankers :bgwo:
Daily driver plus commutes of 140 miles on Fridays. It carries 2 kayaks frequently and backroading with occasional off road work. People still ask me "what the hell is it".
Our Proton sits under varied colored lighting. To to be viewed like a fine painting. In the rec room[three car garage renovated] as we sip a fine vintage .The VX is surrounded with Memobillia slot machines ,pinball games and pool table. The sliding door opens to the tropical pool and fountain.
party at glentom's house!
it gives me a nice place to store a carcover....and it's doing a dandy job of holding down the garage floor
ROFL ... you kill me son:):):)Quote:
