    My VX / blank canvas

    Yup,

    Here is my recent purchase. I had seen these back in 99 but it was out of my range....I was lookin' for a new car last week and ran into an add. I was like, "oh...yeah...i forgot about those!" then 2 weeks and some research later....this is what I got.
    It sounds like a jet plane when I release the gas...kind of a whirring sound...not necessarily a bad sound..is it? I hope it is just the way it sounds...any ways...I really want to get this built up for off-road a bit...
    well...I got a million questions but for now, I am just postin' pics.....

    Yes, as an owner of a Dragon Green VX, it's nice to see a bone stock dragon VX. I remember mine looked like that coming off of the truck. But many thousands of dollars later,..... WAIT, isn't that what an addiction is

    Nice pix!
    I am sure it was love @ first sight....Dragons rule!

    Greeetings, I am snowtrooper1966, and I am a VX owner.
    Creator, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    (folks stopping me and asking what the hell is that thing)
    The courage to change the things I can,
    (with the expert help of forum members here who have gone before)
    And the wisdom to know the difference

    Hey, Tom!
    Shouldn't there be some FFF's betwixt the P's & H's?
    Sorry to pick on you, I was in a hurry and your mod came to mind first. I do like your VX!
    Best,

    Welcome to the VX universe

    Nice to see that you've choose the VX over many,many SUV's & crossovers out there.

    Hope you enjoy it as much as the rest of us are enjoing it or either enjoyed in the past.

    Take care of that toy & he'll take any where you want to.

    Few tips just for starters :

    Use only syntetic oils,nothing else. (Mobil 1 or amsoil)
    Check the oil level at least ones a week & keep an extra bottle in the trunk.

    Ooops,it seems that the isuzu grill logo are heads down isn't it ?

    I did that...thank you. Was wondering if anyone would notice. You should see the folx scratch there head and try and read it....NASA? huh? whats that say?

    haha...yeh...my first mod. And I will be KEEPING the rack thank you. I want some lights up there.

    I figured out the noise was low tire pressure. I love this site and I hope to contribute/donate if at all possible...but, buying this thing and the discovery that my 2nd child is in the oven have me pinching pennies....however, this site seems a wise investment.

    I do want to lift and knob those wheels but, I am also new to this sort of thing so...slow and steady. I don't wanna tear anything up by doing it wrong.

    tomorrow...let the de-badging begin.
