Cladding Took A Hit...
...And did it's job well. I got a character scar on my passenger side front fender cladding from a brick some kids through from a bridge about 2 summers ago. Black Magic hides it well, but I got a new piece of cladding, collecting dust in my basement waitng to be installed. No urgency for that project, like I said, unles I point to it, no one but a VX owner will ever see it.
Had a windshield replaced, minor scratches from alley overgrowth AKA the urban jungle all removed with elbow grease :naughty: All in all my Vx looks as new as the day I got it.

My biggest problems is the rednecks in south Texas thinking I am flashing them to get off my a**, but all in all, I believe it gives us that extra edge in traffic.

Damn south Texas, east Texas, west Texas, central Texas, and north Texas rednecks!!
Funny... there are some people who just moved to Oregon, thinking there weren't any rednecks this far north. After telling someone that I went to college in east Texas (SFA Lumberjacks!), they said something about rednecks in east Texas... trying to infer that there weren't any in Oregon (for some reason). Well my friends, I am here to say, wherever there is rural land, lots of trees, and only one restaurant/bar/club/motel/grocery/gas station/hang out in one, there are PLENTY of rednecks!!!

Driving on the Angeles Crest two months after getting the VX. Drove into some cloud coming over the edge at about 3,000 up, slowed to around 25mph, just as it cleared I was confronted with a wall of snow.
VX's can fly!!
The VX hit the wall of snow went vertical and landed flat on top .
4x4's are great as long as you've got a wheel on the ground somewhere.
We had to dig our way out of the windows and try to get the snow out from underneath.
Ended up hiking the 15miles or so to the rangers station and getting a tow.
Only damage was to the front body work. Thankfully no twisted frame .

VX accidents
Well,two weeks ago while on duty the building management office where my company is located hired few guys with a plow truck.the guys requested to had all the parking area cleared because of the amount of snow (6 inches) so all cars were removed from the area,but my VX & one of my co-worker's 2007 expedition remained while they was plowing & guess what guys .........
Scratches were found on my toy & my co-worker's SUV. WHAT THE F@#%*)
happened here ? :eek:
Since we didn't had no proof of who did it i & my friend decide to had revenge agains those bastards,we went to an 99 cents store & bought a bag of BIG marbles,find out the guy's address & BAM shattered their two truck windshields.
Those jerks had anknowledgedment of who those remaining SUV was belongs to,because our company issued windshield ID tags to all their employees to being displayed over the dash board for ID identification because many neightboors uses the parking over nigh to park their cars with out permission,since my company works 24/7 the building management decide to rely on us to enforce the non-overnight parking without permission so with the tags displayed the tow truck knows which cars aren't belong to any of the offices that does business in the building.
Now i've looking around to find out a good body shop to have those ugly scratches away,they were done with a key,many of them,right under the badge at the driver's side & two more at the passenger door.
But i've thinking about a do-you self finish work,however i need some advice about products that can be use in order to have those scratches out of my sight every time i approach my toy :(
Is any product out there can be use,i'll highly appretiate all replays guys,Thanks ! :o

um.. i wouldnt post anything about breaking out peoples windshields... if i were in their situation regardless of whether or not they scratched your car, i would find your car, drain the oil into a pan and leave it for you to blow up the engine
you are mad that your vehicle was vandalized after you left it in a lot that was supposed to be emptied.. so you go and vandalize their vehicle?

VX accidents
Oh no,emptied their engines wasn't a good move,but i & my co-worker was working,isn't that we left our truck there because of any reason,we didn't know that plow truck would be plowing snow,there's no reason for those guys to even touch another one's property,i'm so sorry the building have no surveillance system,both we knew they did it.

Interesting you dug up this old thread to post in. Maybe need to add another category to the poll: "My VX got keyed after I p*ssed somebody off"--at least two in two days now.
Not really an "accident" tho--pretty sure they did it on purpose:)
