That's a very interesting article. I'm not sure I think it's a believable article, but an interesting read, none the less... ;)
Is this one of those deals like on F-B, where if I reply, I'm supposed to post some crazy stuff on my timeline?...LOL
I see the ORH makes yet another appearance. People really like stealing Jo's pics :(
The way I read that, it seemed the author was talking about the license plate on that particular VX as being what was fake, not the VX itself.
^^^...mebbe try reading it slower? ... ;)

That's Johnny Apollo's VX right below Jo's.
Maybe try reading the OP's title again?Quote:

A vx is a VX no matter where it is made as long as it was made using OEM parts and under license. If Isuzu hired them these are VX's. However, the chinese have stolen alot of vehicle manufacturers design and concepts and put together look alikes with crappy parts and accesories.Quote:

Would the country of origin tag on the door jamb reflect Japan if the vehicle was assembled in China?

Ummmmmmmm...NO...YOU said "licence plate"...(this is what YOU said) : >>> " it seemed the author was talking about the license plate on that particular VX as being what was fake, not the VX itself."Quote:

Tell ya what, I've got a really good camera, and I don't mind traveling for a good cause.
I'll come take your pic for free, as I can think of many good causes that you could be a poster child for.
RIF comes most readily to mind, and I've got a couple others rolling around in my head, that I'm willing to start foundations for from the ground up... :yes:
I'm serious, I really want to help... :yesgray:
Dude, I mean DUB; tread lightly son, lightly...remember the last time!!! Gotta admit though, a knock-off VX is kinda flattering...:_confused
Honestly, had to look up RIF... Reading Is Fundamental, good one!:rotate:
I really like the front light mounting on the one that's two below Johnny Apollo's...:smilewink:bgwo:Quote:

RIF indeed.Quote:
Qingling Motors (wiki, website) makes various Isuzu vehicles for the Chinese market, including light trucks and several SUV’s. Isuzu has a 20% stake in the company
I stated if it was under license these are VX but the chinese have made many fakes.Quote:

Hope things eventually get better with regard to your condition, and that you are able to live a happy & peaceful life.
Do you EVER stop being a D'bag. (That was rhetorical by the way...hence no question mark). ;)Quote:

If you'd been keeping up with the conversation, you'd have realized that my first comment was a response to the OP's post, and the next response was to those (including you) who were under the impression that the article was saying the VX's themselves were fakes.
As it is though, you decided to run with, and then double-down on, your OWN misunderstanding and try to make it seem like a misunderstanding on my part...as you ALWAYS do, and are STILL TRYING to do.
Not that that's anything new with you though.
What you are accusing him of his exactly what you did to my post. Unbunch the panties dude and lighten up.Quote:

In my opinion any VehiCross not built in Japan by Isuzu directly is a Chinese Knock off. Doesn't matter to me if there was a contract or if kits were sent out by Isuzu or if Isuzu is a partial owner of the company that assembled the kits in China, still a knock off in my opinion, and LDubs opinion and the original poster's opinion. Just because you didn't read the article that way and obviously don't have the same definition for a knock-off product as some of us, does not mean anyone is wrong or right. It just proves that you have a different opinion and a different definition then many people here. Which that fact has been proven many many times on this site over and over again in various different threads.Quote:

That is great that you think the article proves that these Chinese assembled kits from Isuzu are NOT knock-offs, but LDub, the original poster, myself, and I am sure others do NOT AGREE WITH YOU. Your opinion of the article and your definition of Knock-off are not the gold standard. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but once again you immediately get defensive and try to prove how perfect your opinion is, when quite frankly it is never that cut and dry. Lots of middle ground that you have historically not been willing to admit even exists. I will not respond back to you so feel free to have the last word, just know that you are typically the one that gets defensive, and always has to show other people how wrong they are, and always feels that your opinion immediately trumps others views. This elitist attitude that you have just does not fit in here and thus you will always get push back from members here, simply from your historically bad attitude towards others and their opinions. I already know the defense for yourself that is coming and how you will quote me and tear everything I say apart word for word, and honestly I just don't care. I know plenty of people like you who think they can never be wrong, and communication with you has been futile and always will be pointless, so this will be my only post here. Enjoy your world where you are always right, if you ever want to join us where all of us screw up and say things wrong and respect others opinions/points of view instead of instantly defending ourselves feel free.
To be honest I thought the same thing at first, but I am glad it was further explained ;-)Quote:

I wonder how many nail polish pink ones they are going to sell.:confused:
Enough with the drama, where the hell do I get one? I want a Chinese Knock off VX, I have had great luck with direct order from china, HIDs, 6 yrs and still on the orginal bulbs, same with the backup camera/monitor kit and so on. I would roll the dice on an entire truck!:bgwb:
see I thought the article said it was a Mexican knock-off:_thinking:_thinking
It was interesting that when I turned Dubs comments back around on him to see how he liked being addressed in that way, you only went after me and gave him a free pass.Quote:

Well you're doing it again.
Yes...yes....certainly.....I see what you're saying, and you make an interesting point.Quote:

Simply seeing the comments in and of themselves also makes an interesting point.
sorry but it seems like your the one holding the spoon
