My Proton VX will be here too, parked next to my prestine 1978 Yellow FJ-40.

I am certain I will be here too. I hope to have a second VX by then. I also wonder about part availability and cost.
We'll finally be hearing from Rickshaw that he has 70K on his Dragon
Seems likely that since this very unique vehicle elicits such loyalty from it's owners, that many current owners would buy another if something unfortunate happened to the VX they are driving now. Being 2nd time buyers, they would choose very carefully, so this would create a demand / premium for low milage VX's......

I have a Sith sense....I see Darth people...
I suspect prices will continue to drop, mode people will do more drastic modifications to them and they will have a loyal following like the Isuzu Impulse community where folks drive across country for a car that they pay $1000 for. I really want to either get a pristine one and chop the top off mine, or buy a beater and chop it. Someday, I will have a topless VX!
10 years? That's crazy talk! We won't be around in 10 years.

...And if we are around, maybe Moncha can save back enough donation $$$ to convert the forum to a 3D virtual reality world. Would make meets much easier.![]()
Yes I have been informed the world is going to end at midnight Dec 31, 1999 due to computers thinking we have traveled back in time to 1900 realizing that they do not exist in 1900 and cease to work and the implode.
My original Isuzu warranty is good til June 2012 so I will be driving the VX at least til then. As for this site as long as we have the same knowledgable and fine people who know what they are doing and share with the rest of us we will be okay.
I'll be here...posting pics of painted ladies at my 60th birthday Party!!
We may need more paint by then...
I've had my Bronco 15 years...I plan to have the ORW just as long.

i plan on getting a second one to keep prestine, considering the huge modifications i have already crossed the point of no return on mine...
ill be around here whether i drive 1 or 2 VX's....
ps- ill never garage a car forever, i think its a very expensive waste of space to buy a car to cover for 20 years....there are much better investments than cars if i wanna have investments

Good thought. You guys know my plan, however I don't know how soon I will be able to enact it, but I do plan to get my VX all fixed up proper and park her in the garage and drive her much, much less.
But given the FUBAR state of our economy, and given the other massive money pit project I have on deck, who knows when I will be able to park my VX. I was really hoping to find a Trooper sometime here soon. There is still a chance I can do this sometime this summer but right now a lot is up in the air.
I think there will always be VX enthusiasts out there, old timers or noobs, but the real question is, how long with Moncha decide to keep the site up and running? It such a large amount of upkeep!!
