    What is my "Vehicross" worth?

    Folks,

    My VX is killing my freaking back.Driving this awesome machine is exacerbating my lower back issues.
    I am entertaining the possibility of selling my printine VX.
    This baby is in showroom condition. She is being kept in an air conditioned garage. I drive her about 20 miles per month. She has 34k on the clock, and i am the original owner.

    Mine is very similar... '01....34k...flawless...lives on a lift in the warehouse, and comes out on occasion. Never even used the washers, wipers, or mirror heaters. I have a standing offer of 17,000....and that's high! You'll be lucky to get 15, and trade sits at 11 or 12. Sobering numbers

    WOW...LOW MILES...

    But is it 21,000 total...or 21,000 on the new engine?
    And why a new engine after 21,000 miles.

    ...which must be in the $14500 range.

    Yep. The owner is playing a mindgame with that one. I would have LOT of questions to ask first, but it looks like a pretty good buy at first glance.

    Back to my earlier post, the guy that offered me $20k "claims" that when he looked at the VX years ago he was looking at a Proton on a dealer's showroom floor and the sticker said "$38k". Not sure where he was buying from but that was either highway robbery or he was mistaken (or lying). I figured that is why he offered me so much since he thought it was pricey in the first place. Oh, if he only know that I paid $21k (6%) for my first Dragon Green and then $24 (0%) for my Ebony, hahahaha.

    The religious R.P. changes seem kind of a waste...unless it's since the engine is new, not the car. Maybe his religion calls for swaps every 21,000 miles.

    I think it's "Bushanomics".

    The square root of (24,000-21,000) x (x) /(135 x0500) = (x trillion /y)=71,513,706.9380

    24,000 being the second stated mileage
    21,000 being the first stated mileage
    x being 3 the cost of the war in iraq
    y being 4195 the number of US troops killed in iraq
    135 represents the number of VX's that he says were produced that year
    0500 represents the last four of the vin of this VX which says this VX was number 500 produced that year
    the sum (true mileage on the engine) just happens to be the same amount that each life has cost in the war. Who said Bush thinks life is cheap?

    We sit together, my VX and I, until only the VX remains.

    turns out the VX had

    54000 miles originally ten the engine swap and an additional 24000 was added for a total of 78000 miles.

    Folks,

    Today, I took my baby out for a forty miles drive.
    My back feels perfectly normal. Thus, my Vehicross will remain in my garage, until I kick the bucket. Hopefully,
    I will be able to take her out next weekend, with the cooperation of my LUMBAR SPINE.
