WormGod,
EVERY time I see that photo it gives me the creeps. I still can't believe that you are up and walking around after something like that.

When i saw that pic the 1rst time i got depressed for days.
Once my sister ask why i drive so carefully,i told her :
Sis,whenever you spot a VX on street you'll be seeing the most safe drivers out there,the facts that insurance companies likely totalled our Vx's even if the damage is not that much they rather do so that makes our dirvers to avoid accidents as much as they can
Kodiak was very lucky though,on the opposite ashley wasn't that lucky though & so it comes & goes.
Dakar was just the begining.

You know man, when they pulled out the jaws and saws, I told them to use them to remove my leg to get me out. I only had the VX for 3 months and didn't want them chopping it up, heh. I believe they thought I was in shock for that comment. Seeing the sparks and hearing that god awful cutting noise made me very sad.Originally Posted by don moore

And yes, she did give her life. To save "3" lives (can't say so much for the clown that hit me head-on). Hell of a vehicle.
It would be pretty interesting seeing some updated numbers for each year/color. If someone can make that so, please post up.

and what states there in

I think it would be safe to assume we have lost at least 500 VXes from wrecks and blown engines (that eventually go to the crusher). The number is likely higher, but I think 500 is a safe bet for certain. It is very possible we are down 25%.

Keep in mind that the loss rate will only accelerate with time as those of us with lower mileage / better MX habits inevitably beginning having major problems over the next few years as well. We could be down as much as 75% within 10-15 years...

I'll play with 800 to 900,yet still that's good bunch of VX's lossed in the past 10 years.
Another factor here is possible few VX's has been exported to another countries such as mexico & canada
