If I designed the VX

[SomeBeach]

So my VX is not yellow???? Good thing I didn't order "OLD YELR" tags. Tom I'm gonna change my profile to PROTON.
Back to changes, What is with the platinum teeth in the grill? I mean are they supposed to be teeth? And again the name Vehicross. What the heck does that mean? I'm going to debadge mine and get professionally done new badges that better represent the vehicle. I'll try HUMMER LittleBeast, or Isuzu tiger, or even Mighty Mite.
And another change, the driving lights should be bright driving lights. I mean Isuzu made an off road vehicle and didn't equip it with extra lights.

And another thing, why did Hollywood not modify a black VX to be another vehicle for Batman? Stock, the black VX looks like a Bat SUV.

SomeBeach, you need to sell your VX and go buy another vehicle. Holy Cow !!!

If I complained about the "build and design" of my wife as much as you complain about the VX I'd have to get a divorce.

You should get a new vehicle and sell yours to someone else who appreciates it.

Take a chill pill Keith. I'm not complaining. I'm having dialogue with my VX buddies. I appreciate my vehicle and was simply having some fun discussing what would make it even better. Didn't realize the forum had such strick guidelines. If you read the members profiles you will see all the mods that have been done. Should these members sell there VX also. Lighten up and enjoy my sense of humor.

Oh, now I get it.

I think the VX should have been designed with helicopter blades that come out of the roof. It also should have been designed with the ability to float and a drop down jet in the rear so we could take it across a river if it is too windy to fly.

Are you serious???

[KeithVXlvr]

Of course, it would also be nice if it had hovercraft ability.

THAT is funny.

SomeBeach, you are exactly right that we can talk about whatever we want. That is the beauty of this forum. At the same time, don't expect people not to react however they want!

I tend to agree with Keith.

Everyone reading this thread should tell us:

What exactly made you want a VX in the first place?

For me, it was 100%, hands down, the way it looks. Period.

If I just wanted a SWB SUV to wheel in, I would have bought a Jeep. So I too genuienly struggle with the idea of modifying the looks of the VX. Sure, it has some "comfort" and "convenience" shortcomings, but nothing I would change about the external appearance short of debadging and customizing the wheels/tires.

Anyway, I'm just saying. Threads like this, and threads like Marlin's "removing the front cladding for a custom bumper" seriously confuse me.

Very true....you just can't predict how someone will react. I read the forums to get ideas on mods and improvements. It don't mean these people don't liketheir VX....just discussing what would make a great vehicle better. I'm on your side...I really am

Oh I know, I'm not critisizing you or anyone else who has plans to mod their VX beyond recognition... To each his own.

It's a fun discussion, it really is.

"The outer styling is what makes the VX the VX, and to change or deface it, is blasphemous, imho anyway..."

This from the gentleman who blacked out EVERYTHING on his.

As far as the name goes, I likey VehiCross - very unique.

I really think that the VX should have rolled off the line with MORE OFFSET.

There, I think I just pissed off just about everyone.

My only outside mod will be larger tires. I like the way it looks looks. I do!

#1 I bought mine because it looks so darn neat.

#2 I bought mine for the off road capability.

#3 Also, it is a very nice ride... something you can feel comfortable in; unlike some old jeep. I know the passenger in my VX feels like they are riding in a very nice vehicle.. as opposed to some mid 1990's jeep with broken down seats etc...

#4 They are also rare and may hold their value over the long run.. if I can keep the miles off - I am at 58,000 now.

#5 I can join this wonderful community and get people really wound up with one simple comment.

#6 You can wash it and take it too a very nice event and not be embarrassed about your car..... It looks as nice as any car in the valet lot !!!!!!!

I bought mine because it was the neatest SUV I ever saw. It stood out from all the others that looked alike. Isuzu makes a very dependable product and I knew it would last. Heck the sticker price was like $31,000 back in 2001. I bought mine used and flew to Baltimore. I had never driven one but what a great ride home. Felt like everyone was staring. I agree with Keith (my new VX buddy) that these things should really hold their value.
