When was your first...?

[Gussie2000]

It was 2004 i just came into the US when i begin working at a shopping mall.

Around december i saw this guy pulling into the parking area with his silver VX,i felt so curious about it,but i felt shy about approching him to ask questions,one of my co-workers who have worked there for years told me that the guy always comes to shop so it wouldn't be the last time i'll see him.

After few weeks i felt confident enough & saw him coming so kindly ask him about it,he were so excited about the VX that he ask me to take a drive around the mall so i can be convinced about what he was tlaking about, Guys that was it,my thoughts were : cheez,can i ever own one,so patiently i begin to research more about isuzu & after three years i was ready for the hit,my bank approve me a loan & found my toy in riverhead,LI 67 miles away from home & here i'm with all you guys
My VX is originally from pocasset,MA,was always serviced at a nissan dealership located at that city

I don't know where I saw my first one, but I tailgated this one across the continental divide around this day two years ago. I snapped a hurried picture of it so I could look it up when I got home. I knew I had to have one.

My father ( rest in peace) came home one day in the summer of 99 and said "son ..let go down and see this new thing ISUZU made".We got to the local dealer and.he said" look at that thing ".."It looks like some kind of MAD GERBIL 4X4..."well I fell in love with it ..and next to it was a decked out AMIGO.
i jumped into the seat of the VX and said "HELL YES"..then we looked at the price...OUCH..
well i have'nt seen one since i started to look for one..
I was in a bad car crash and the insurance settlement was coming .and I
figured I would get a 4X4 this time ..and started to look at CJs and came across
a VX on the internet..WOW "Honey I said that's what I want" I told the wife..hehe ..well Now I got one of my Dream cars..

I liked them ever since I saw photos of them at launch. Anyway, the first time I actually saw one in the flesh was when I'd driven 350 miles to see and try one I had no intention of buying at the time.

Well, I didn't buy that one, but I did know that I definitely wanted a VX. I saw a couple in the US too - a silver/dark grey one in Vegas and one with a newsprint-style livery in S/F.

Then I saw one advertised moderately locally to me and... 11 months and 18,000 miles later
