I've some experience in translating the Dubster's colorful posts into thought bits that my grey matter can easily digest. So here's what he was trying to get across:
Most members here (not all ... but most) purchased their VX for the sole purpose of feeding their addiction. They love the look, feel, & performance of the VX and find driving it to be the most fun they can have with their clothes on. They did not purchase it as a financial investment so the current resale value really doesn't cause them to lose sleep.
I paid too much for mine & will never recoup what I've invested in it. That matters not a bit to me. I love my VX & will keep it till I'm just too decrepid to climb up into it.
B-I-N-G-O !!!
Thanks Tom, as soon as I get the next batch of "dub decoder rings" outta the molds, you KNOW who I'm gonna send em' to......
