Introduce yourself here!

Great to have ya Hal, I hope you get to drive the VX too...lol....A lot of people down here talk about going to Boone....they love it.

So far I've changed the oil, checked the trans fluid (seems recent and full), all-season floor mats, and a few light bulbs that were out. Next up is keyless entry and a remote starter.

I need to get under the car but snow sucks.

I need to get under the car as I have a CV boot that is split and I need to find what sounds like an exhaust leak.

Welcome,

For the exhaust leak, have a good check around the flexipipe possible chance that it has rusted out on a part of it and caused a leak.

& check with Independent 4x4 for the MechaTech CV boots.

You can find the install instructions in the DownLoad section on the home page for the forum.

Hey All,
My name is Q. Originally I had noticed the VX on the internet during my highschool years. About a year ago(now 22yrs old) I had need of a vehicle with 4wheel/AWD and did some further research on the VX but mom wanted a new suby so I got passed her old one (99 brighton). Three days before it's regularly timed oil change the engine locked up (due to lack of oil and some negligence on my part. I have heard that as subys age they start to burn oil). I already knew my options and was looking around locally (shipping to Juneau, Alaska can cost as much as 2K because they can only be barged in from seattle). As luck would have it, a VX had been driven to seattle from utah and then barged up, and was now for sale, not more than 3 miles from my house 76K and checked out on the used veh inspection. I purchased it w/2 sets of aftermarket wheels and tires (will post them on the wheel tire thread later). I LOVE THE VX!!! I have a laundry list of things I would like to do w/the vehicle...just wish I had a empty garage in which to do them..It was 12 degrees this morning when I left for work..

P.S. Thanks to all who contribute to this forum, it is a wealth of information.

Great !

Welcome aboad Q. :yesgray:

Hi! I'm Jesse, I am currently residing in Flagstaff, az, but found a vehicross for sale down in Phoenix and jumped on the chance to get it. I have only had it for a little while but i love it! It is just so unlike any car around. The forums here have already helped me a bunch with my Vehicross, so thanks for that guys and gals!

FWIW, the engine in the VX has a tendancy to use oil too...:yesgray:

Check your oil every time you fill with petrol & you should enjoy many miles together.

Welcome to VX world...:thumbup:

currently living in WA, home is acctualy in Ohio country of origin England.
Just bought the Vehicross this week and am still waiting delivery(some time next week). reason for buying are as follows. always loved the design. it was so far advanced of anything else in deisign when first introduced. my other vehicle sucks as a daily driver.
fist saw and drove a Vehicross in 1995 while working at Isuzu as a guest design engineer working on fuel systems in Japan. loved it then and always wanted one.
looking at some of the postes that others have placed this looks like a great place to learn everything about these vehicles.

Welcome aboard to you and all latest new members.

The VX family keeps growing.......

Hello,
Literally just got my VX off the delivery truck 30 minutes ago. I am in NY.
I am a member of other forums and I know you can't own a vehicle like this without good forum people. I am really really happy I found this site.
Just got a 2001 Black VX. Lst owner had it only short period of time, before that it came from Georgia and was with a supposed VX person. Anyone know my vehicle?
Got lots of questions but I want to look through site before I ask ones that have already been answered.

Welcome fellow VX'r. Don't know the vehicle but one of our members might. Be sure and use the search function and a lot of your questions will be answered....if ya can't find it, feel free to jump-in. I think you'll find our group to be most friendly and accommodating. Some are a little dingy but you'll find that out on your own.lol

My dad remembered when the Vehicross first was introduced and he thought they were really cool. He saw the one for sale at the Chrysler dealer in Bonham Texas, a pile of dung, and called about it as he drove by. We got on line and found the one with the funky orange LineX coated panels and went to see it - what a cool vehicle! I have been saving up for about three years for my first car and we purchased the Vehicross last night from Woody, one of the nicest guys in the world. He took awesome care of it - the entire care looks almost new. I don't mind the orange color, but am still probably going to get it re LineXed in black.
