    I am going to request the federal government begin a registered VX owners list. This way we can track who lives close to us who might be interested in stealing parts off our vehicles in the middle of the night.

    Agreed I will not be parting with my VX for any foreseeable reason. I will probably get a second car in a year or two as economical backup. Something sensible like a used Lotus Elise

    That F800GS was pretty boring to ride IMO. Triumph dealer has two as service loaners...

    Unless I total (i.e. roll it) the VX, I plan on keeping it forever. There is nothing out there that picts my interest that will do the stuff I want/like to do in it. If the unimaginable (well maybe not to some that have witnessed my offroading) happens I will probably buy a well built older toyota truck (on tons and 40's) that I can wheel the snot out of and drive it home afterwards.

    I wouldnt want an X6. It doesnt do anything very well. For that price I would get a nice used AWD car for on road and a beater for a trail rig.

    I recently said farewell to me VX and got inyo a 2005 Infiniti FX35. Since I can't/don't do any off roading, it was a great move on my part....

    There is just NO comparison in the ride between full frame (VX) and uni-body construction (FX)... plus, I love the Nissan V6 engine.

    well, I traded it in at Chapman Chevrolet and I'm sure it went straight to a wholesaler. I believe VXKat already found the ad from that dealer.

    To answer your actual question....no, I didn't pass on this site since I didn't sell to a one on one buyer.

    I don't have plans to part with it..... but if I did....

    Merc G Wagon
    Even considered a Jeep Mojave or Rubicon to toy with

    Chances are, it would be a Subaru Forester XT Sport though. 3" lift, bigger shoes, nice all terrain package/modding. Tunable tturbocharged engine.... A project that appeals to me VERY much.

    Hang on to your VX just a little while longer and go for this:

    The next vehicle in my queue is a 2011 Ford F-150 Raptor Crew cab. All back, with red and black interior.

    I hope I don't have to think about replacing the VX for a loooong time. I looked at Grand Cherokees in years past, but every time I checked out a used one I got that "all used up / never been maintained" vibe. I'd consider an FJ Cruiser. I recently saw the Trail Teams Edition - love that Army Green.

    Another VX would still be at the top of my list.
