Sorry I didn't get to you earlier, but you can sometimes fly into the Fort Collins/Loveland airport for a whole lot cheaper. In the grand scheme of things, it only saves you an hour in time, though.
Note that DDA hosted a Colorado meet-up a few weeks back. I didn't make it up, but I know a couple of the Colorado members did. They might have had eyes on your VX, or even driven it already. I can say that I was just looking at their inventory yesterday, and I was pondering if I needed a second one...
