    all white VXs were ironmans and all ironmans were white......they didnt make a white vx without the ironman stuff...just one and it was pearl white.

    Don't quote me,but surely you could buy a white vx without the Ironman package...?

    Nope unless it has been painted after it was purchased as an Ironman, and guess what no factory Ironmans (white VX) were made with the grey/black interior either. One of these days I will buy a VX with the Grey/black interior and paint it white, but that is the only way you are getting that combo.

    might be easier/cheaper to swap the interior from an ironman out with someone with a gray interior wanting a red one.. only hard part of that job is the steering wheel

    there have been people who bought ironmans and removed all of the badging so they look like any other vx (except painted white of course) floor mats and seats also said ironman though (for the most part.. i think in 01 a few had seats w/o ironman embossing)

    Another option to consider, as I found out when I just purchased mine, is you can buy warranties for used cars now. Since this is my first 4WD, and I have heard many horror stories about when the 4WD goes bad, I bought a 4 year/unlimited mileage bumper-to-bumper warranty with mine. Most banks/credit unions offer them, even on my 1999 IronMan.
    My son was a service manager for Toyota, and he said why not? It's cheap (well, not that cheap) peace of mind. All dealerships, not just Isuzu honor them.
    Hey, it even covers the window issue! I hope to never use it, but it helped me be more confident in buying the VX.
    They offer different levels of coverage for different prices. Just some food for thought....Robert
