When that one with the blown tranny went up for dibs here in ATL, I was sorely tempted. It found a good home up in Canada though so I'm glad it's in good hands. I may still get a second as a dedicated off-roader.

"Metaphors be with you"
My wife wanted to replace her aging Grand Cherokee. She was looking at sports cars but was concerned about giving up her SUV. I told her that I knew exactly what to get. I located a very clean but customized 99 Ebony in St. Louis, flew there and drove it back. Soon we were competing over who would drive the VX each day. Peace was restored when I found an 01 Proton in storage in Indianapolis. We have been happy driving them ever since.
Sadly, due to needing a van most of the time, I only drove the Ebony off and on for a few weeks this past year. I plan to sell it soon and return to a one VehiCROSS family.
Presently, somehow we're getting by with just the ONE VehiCROSS – but MARK MY WORDS, someday our 1999 Astral *will* have a stable mate… Yes, aProton!

Does having one before the one you have now count?Had a dragon green before my ebony, until a drunk driver decided to end its life (and his).

VX ownership can be addicting and may lead to ownership of two VXs. My addiction is moving rapidly in that direction. I want two Ebony's that are identical. All the same mods. Then everywhere I go I'll toe the other one. Now that would look interesting on the Interstate!!! "What...that...oh, that's just a spare."
