    I put my VX in the "general V6" category. It seems to accelerate about the same as my 1996 Buick GS, 1999 Firebird, 2002 Ranger Edge & 2004 Monte Carlo SS (most of those were 3.8 liters.) Nothing spectacular, but has PLENTY of guts and isn't disappointing or worrisome by ANY means when trying to merge aggressively into traffic. I've probably only jumped into the throttle twice just to see what it would do. It's not a hot rod and I just don't drive it that way.

    For a mini truck, the VX is a blast to drive hard. The TOD and stiff suspension keeps the body flat in the corners, which in turn can lend itself to some spirited driving... I have fun gettin' on the throttle once I've entered a corner.
    And of course, the button in always set to "Power Drive"...
