Do you still get the looks?

[RickOKC]

There's something just a little off about each and every one of us.

JUST a "little"? You take that back!

[Y33TREKker]

I think we're all a bit narcissistic in a way. I mean, really, who else drives around looking at passing motorists to see if they are checking you out? I know I do it all the time, and when I'm in another car, or in a rental, and I see that no one is gawking at my car I get a little sad. There's something just a little off about each and every one of us.

Well, I know that's not the reason I bought mine. It's simply difficult NOT to notice the gawking and head-turning because it seems to happen so much. I can only imagine how many additional times it happens that we DON'T notice while we're driving.

That's funny, I always look at people I pass to see if they're looking at my VX. Today I was passing a girl waiting at a traffic light, as I went by her head was turning and she had her mouth open Maybe she was checking me out?......NAH, I'm sure it was the truck.

I see your point, but how sombody as fugly as I could possibly be narcissistic escapes me.

Maybe some of you are prettyboys/gals and mirror addicts, but as for me, i just like the truck. Other people enjoy seeing it, and that brings joy. Nothing narcissistic about that IMHO.

Ya like Mile High said, it's one of the reasons I love my truck. I get looks all the time and at gas stations I always have SOMEBODY asking about it. What's funny is the guy that runs the station by my house answers almost as many questions as me on it I've talked to him alot about it and every now and then I hear someone asking him about it when they are cashing out and he proceeds to tell them all about it (I go to the Domino's in the gas station alot to get take-out so I can over-hear them talking at the front counter)

This is the exact reason I want a second one. Either Kaiser or Proton (this one is growing on me). One street and one off road. Build my current more off road and then with the 2nd keep it clean and only road driven. Then I would have 4 sets of rims/tires.

[RamAirZ]

lol I've thought about doing the same thing but I think if I get another Zu' it'd have to be a larger truck.

[JHarris1385]

I figure I will supplement that with an 04 Axiom. I don't want to ever been without a VX.

[RamAirZ]

Ya I've been looking at an Axiom, but I'd still have my VX, so I wouldn't be without one I don;t think I could justify a 2nd VX to the wife lol

[Hiredgoon]

I was at a little show n shine the other day, wandering around looking at these pristine polished land-sharks, when a lady comes panting up to me and says she's been chasing me for five minutes, why didn't I stop and register my car-- my filthy dirty vx, with about 1200 highway miles since the last wash from a long road trip. When I got back to it, there were four guys looking at it, and were shocked that it was ten years old.

[hyperkid]

DUDE! That's priceless

[RamAirZ]

I think the best for me was a guy walking away from my truck after leaving a note. I walk out and he comes up to me asking if it's mine. He then proceeds to want to sit in it with him and his wife, and guess what, they have an Ebony 01' now

[BeeVenom]

It doesn't matter where we go or whether is was yesterday or a year ago, or two years ago, or five or seven years ago. You get the picture! People ALWAYS ask 'What is it?' and tell my wife and me how cool it is. I love it!
It just keeps going on. I figure 10 years from now, people will still be asking 'what is it?' and saying 'how cool'. They're right.......VX's are awesome!

i was stoped at a RR crossing last week around midnight, and a cop pulled up and spotlighted me. after a min he gestured for me to roll down my window. as i crossed my fingers hopeing that A) my window would work, B) i wasint going to get a ticket. The 2 cops start asking me what it was, if it was a straght 6 or a V6. on and on they went. Untill the train had pased and the rest of traffic started honking at me and the cops!

[hyperkid]

That's so funny you said "hopeing your window would work" - Everyday I get into my truck and think is today the day my window is going to shift forward and not want to work. LOL

I had a similar experience months ago while getting stopped for my license plate lights. they are both rusted and don't work so until i fix it I just shoved the broken rusted mess up inside. Both cops said they have never seen one and walked around it looking. Luckily I got a warning slip and not an equipment repair order. They also mentioned my front license plate (which I keep in the glove box). Told them the bracket was on backorder from Japan. Ha! I guess it's time to fix those damn lights eh.
