Does this still happen to everyone???

w00t! Today I was filling up my tank next to a guy who was filling up his H2. He made a point to come over and ask me about the VX. Said he really liked my roof rack and the general look of the truck. He also said he was in the automotive biz and has never seen one. We chatted for a minute and ended with, "Man, I love my VehiCROSS, but $58.02 to fill up! This is killing me!". His reply, "Try $122! "

A little while ago, i was checking out a black 71 Charger, when i looked at the driver, he was checking out my VX! LOL

I had a gas station encounter just last weekend (I get people asking about or acknowledging the VX once a month or so). The guy at the pump next to me asked what it was, so I went through the whole explanation for him. He really, really liked it! Myself, I got a big kick out of his F-250 with a Chevy sticker on the back window and a Calvin-peeing-on-Ford sticker on the tailgate. I got a big laugh out of it and asked what kidn of statement he was trying to make there. He replied, "Rednecks are idiots." :-)

I get the biggest response from fast food drive up windows cashers, “This is the coolest car I have every seen.” “Where can I get one of those?” “Duuuude! You must really hookup.” My favorite is when they don’t say anything and just zone out for a bit like my VX was a striper or something.

Another funny thing that happens a lot when I cross the Canadian border everyday (where they don't have VX's) is the border guards will slip in questions about it. It'll be, "Where do you live, what kind of car is that, where are you going, when's it coming out, how long have you been out of the country, what year is it, purpose of your visit, how much did it cost. It's so funny because they ask everything in the same tone so that nobody would even notice them veering off the subject at hand unless they were really paying attention. It's happened a LOT of times in the same way.

I seem to get more of a response when I put on my $150 15in beater tires. I Love junk yards.

Today as usuall i had one of those paratransit drivers waving at me just to ask me where's a isuzu dealer so he can have a test drive in one "OF THOSE SUV " or what ever is that.

When i told him that my "WHATEVER IS THAT" is an 1999 isuzu vehicross he said : Are you kidding ? that looks damn new & the design is off the hook & very updated.

When he look at the interior & see the recaro seats he didn't believe it came with it as OEM seats.

He ask me : So is hard to find one of those ? because i never saw one before

I told him Well,it could be hard as finding a dollar bill over the floor

He : Damn,i never found a dollar bill over the floor

However i give him our web site board info so he can take a look at

When Cari and I were house sitting we came up on a really nice Toyota pick up and as I was saying that was nice to Cari we both looked at the drive and could clearly see him say to his buddies "what the F*$% is that."

No one comes up to me when I am alone. I get lots of looks but not much else. I think the Silver just blends a little too much.

That's usually the response I get too. As a matter of fact, I try to make it a point to say that my VX is a 2001 just to watch the reaction.

Yeah,you right about the silver color.

That's why i've being wondering about painting in metallic black or go much further.................. bright copper or rainbow .

What do you think'bout that ?

Well i think you would have the one and ONLY rainbow color VX

[nfpgasmask]

Well, depending on your orientation, you might give the wrong impression with a rainbow colored VX. But, if that is the idea, then go for it!
