    My favorite Vehical ever

    I saw my first Vehicross at a local dealer in 1999 and new I had to have one but the fact that it only sat 4 made it not practical for a family of 4 that was still growing. Eight years later with a family of 5 I decide that I cannot always be practical and finaly went out and bought one. First I could not find one close in good condition then found one about 450 miles away and spent the entire day driving to pick it up. It is a 1999 white Ironman. It had 95K miles but the owner kept all of the receipts and could see it was well maintain. It has been a year now since I bought it and still cannot believe it is mine. This is by far my favorite vehical ever own.

    Introduction

    Hi there from Auckland, New Zealand. My VX is a 1998 Japanese Import. To my knowledge only 97 & 98 VX have come into NZ so far. In Mint condition; Flew down to Christchurch to pick up (sight unseen) from another VX lover who was working in Australia.
    only sighted 2 others on the roads in Auckland (both within one hour of eachother) since buying it.
    No mechanical issues.
    Setting it up for camping & road trips this summer.
    Would love to hear from other Kiwi owners & organise a few drives together.
    Cheers
    David

    New VX owner in PA

    Just wanted to take a second to introduce myself here. I picked up my 1999 Silver Vehicross last weekend. It was totally worth the two hour drive to Ohio in the rain. I can't believe how many people have complimented me on my "new" truck! The look on their faces when I tell them it's ten years old is priceless.

    Well time to start saving up some $$$ so I can get to modding it this spring. It looks like this is going to be an addiction!

    Welcome to the addiction.

    Don't forget to use the search function to find some other local owners (I think there's at least one other in your area.

    BTW - I used to run the Baldwin/Whitehall area back in my teens.

    Thanks. Looks like I'll be spending Thanksgiving weekend reading the forums here. Is there a "how-to" on how to explain to your wife that you need to spend more money on the truck you just bought?

    "Is there a "how-to" on how to explain to your wife that you need to spend more money on the truck you just bought?"

    I tried the approach: Honey - I bought it for you.

    BTW - it didn't work.
