The winter button is OK if you are having problems pulling away from a stop sign, but it is completly worthless for daily driving. Not only can you not hit the winter button everytime you get to a stop sign, but how about in rush hour traffic? Also, it does nothing for my traction when turning through an intersection or yielding then making a turn (intersections are where the snow tends to get the most mushy and rutted).

I guess I am dissapointed in the VX, I thought it was going to act more like a 4X4 truck, not like a part-time all wheel drive car. As much as I like the looks of the VX, I think the comforts + handling of the car are starting to wear on me. I cannot count how many times I've spilled my drink all down the center console because I have it jammed into that little square change holder thing that isn't quite big enough for a coffee mug. I am also sick of any friend I have that is more then 150# not being able to get into the backseat w/o a shoe horn. My windows continue to go up at the pace of a snail, even after having Isuzu inspect them under warranty and tell me they are fine. The two door part is OK, because I knew that going in, but the fact that the seats don't even move to let someone in is kind of lame. The engine power is nice, but its not any faster then a Trailblazer or most V8 sized pickups. I do have to admit it "feels" faster, but that could just be due to the smaller size and engine noise.

Anyway, enough rants.
