    Depending on how things go for me over the next year or so, there is a good possibility I will start hunting for a "deal". If I could find a good, strong running VX in the $5000-$6500 range, I would SERIOUSLY consider it. But again, it all depends on how things go for me over the next 12 months.

    Clint, is that Mr. Horse?

    Glad to know you sobered up and still love your VX.

    Bart

    Me too Bart. I really wanted to puke after reading some of those holier than thow statements by those guys on the other forums.

    Yes, gentlemen that is Mr. Horse.

    I can never remember if it was; "Well sir, I dont like it" or "no sir, I dont like it."

    Bart and I got into a conversation about the "Jeep Thing" on here once. He called Jeepers elitists and I agreed that there are some snobs out there. But there are snobs everywhere - I even considered what Bart had to say a bit on the elitist side... no offense of course. But why would you let other people's attitudes dictate what you want to buy? Buying a Jeep doesn't make you one of "those people"! There are too many pricks with Porsches but they are still nice cars. Lots of snobby cyclists with Subarus; doesn't mean you are going to start doing downhill racing.

    True true. That isn’t the main reason why I don’t want to get rid of the VX now. I still do in a way just something to beat up on though. I just got to thinking about it and really didn’t want to get rid of my VX. Its fun. It looks cool. I have met a some cool people (on and off line) because of it.

    I know how it is... I wanted to get a new Rubicon, then decided against it. Then I considered an SAS on the VX, then decided against it. Who knows what I will do!?

    I have always felt this to be a High Risk Trail.
    Because the trail is "V" shaped. the sidewalls will climb and in less than one tire revolution....... ***** happens!!!!!
    That is why I like those pictures, in the galleries, the most.
    I would feel safer with a winch tied to a dead head at the top, (or a rig at the top with a winch)
    I could not replace my VX. if I rolled it in the name of sport.
    Keep the shiny side up!

    I see less than 2 Zu's a day. RARELY see a Axiom. Does anyone know how many of those were produced? I see a VX all the time. Joe = Jkstephens on here has an IronMan as well, and lives down the road a bit.
