    "Ford ended up receiving the contract with Harley Davidson and production versons were released without the supercharger, hitch, badging and exhaust. It was designated the Vehicross."

    That has to go in the books as one of the Top 10 BS statements made about the VX in an ad.

    In his words on the listing: "Created to represent the concept of an Isuzu-based Harley Davidson vehicle."

    It does represent the concept, if it in fact had ever happened but it never did, outside of this one VX that someone "created to represent" what it would've looked like if "Ford ended up receiving the contract with Harley Davidson", but it did not ever happen. Interesting way of listing the VX it is very deceiving, and not really true, but if you really highlight the "created to represent" then you understand that this is just one persons dream as to what it would've looked like if the next sentence was true, but it is not. Interesting to say the least. Oh and I think the whole Harley Davidson thing on 4 wheel vehicles is completely tacky and almost as bad as having Nascar written all over a road going car. I mean come on a Harley is a Harley, it is not some truck package, and if you love Harley's get one and drive it, if you like trucks get one and drive it, don't combine the two they are totally seperate things. If you are pulling a trailer with a Harley on it, then just put the tacky Harley stickers on the trailor not the nice truck or SUV pulling the trailor. Just my 2 cents, this is definitely not my style and I am so so glad that Isuzu did not release the Harley Davidson edition VX! But it is interesting to see that someone would actually prefer that. I like the Ironman edition about 300x more than this.

    Does it come with a certificate of authenticity?
    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

    Things that make you go Hmmm.

    Things that make you go Hmmm. There are only two(2) good things about this particular VX on eBay: A. It has extremely low miles (legitimacy must be confirmed). and B. It has a Super-Charger (then again, that may be a good thing or may be a bad thing since it's not OEM). Other than that, it's got a cheesy assortment of H.D. Motorcycle decals, floor mats, and trailer hitch cover from your local Auto Zone store. Tsk Tsk. Things that make you go Hmmm.

    Hi
    I emailed the seller and asked if he had fitted the badges himself?
    His reply is below:

    The HDVX was developed by the design team of MDM Motorsports in the early part of 1999.
    This was their concept of what a Harley Davidson endorsed vehicle should be. The Idea to use
    the Vehicross platform was suggested by one of the Ducati engineers who was part of the design
    team for Isuzu. This is the prototype for this project. The metal badging was applied during detailing.
    - mdmason12

    What a lot of BS!

    Cheers all,
    Clive

    Why, of course, I see the link now. MDM Motorsports is a late model dirt track car team sponsor. The VX is a premier off road vehicle, do you see it now. And HD does that dirt racing thing. It must be true then

    ya, right
    Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.

    My question would be whether this current owner bought it before or after all the HD "modifications" were made, and if so, how much extra he paid for it because it was so special. I'm curious to know where the reserve is set.
