Anyone near central Okla?

Oh yeah a 3-hour drive is no big deal at all, but the closest VX has frame damage in addition to some other issues (odometer rollback, mis-matched stripes.) I'm not window shopping - just hoping for the opportunity to actually check one out in person before buying.

Rick, just take your time and try and be patient....you'll find one that's right for you. Maybe you will get the chance to contact a member and ride in one, plus get some pointers on what to look for. This is from one Okie to another (I was born in Ardmore).

Frame damage , odo roll-back etc., sounds like a mess to me.

Thanks for the encouragement, fellow Okie! Fortunately, I'm "Mr. Patient" so (eventually) I'll end up with the best one in my price range. I already have VX Kat's Check List in a file on my cell phone and a printout in my glove box. After a search here I learned the "mess" I mentioned has been sitting on the lot since at least 12/16. A month later another member described it as a "pile." The sad part is, it's listed almost everywhere, but if it wasn't for AutoCheck on eBay a person would never know about the "issues." LOL, I just can't get over those Starsky & Hutch stripes that are different lengths!

NOT one you're considering...I hope.

Not in a million years! I'm not even interested in driving it around the block.
