    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 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!

    ...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 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

    You too? Me too.

    circmand - you will need to get a 6-month extended warranty policy to carry you from June 2012 to December 2012. After that, you won't need to worry about keeping your VX in good repair.

    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!!

    Maybe he should farm out the responsibility to India?

    No worries, Even if I'm the only one left, this site will be running! I've left specific instructions regarding it's up keep and existence should I happen to kick the bucket.

    This site will always be here.
