    How Do You Pronounce "VehiCROSS"?

    Ok, so I'm gettin ready to go pick up my VX from Chicago, and I figure part of the preparation will be to answer all the "What is that?" queries. And, well, I'm still uncertain as to the proper pronunciation of the word "VehiCROSS". Is the "h" hard or soft? That is, is it "VE-ha-cross" or "VE-a-cross"? Thanks for the help !!!!

    UMM.... where is the "none of the above" on the poll. Do you not believe me or is your accent that heavy where you even spell things with eeeee's and aaaa's instead of iii's? Do you pronounce vehicle like ve-ha-cle or ve-hee-cle? I told you how it's pronounced listen to me! Can you not say "hi" as in his? C'mon man get it straight!

    Do you say warsh instead of wash? My dad does just curious. Alaskans are blessed with no accent! Well not the real natives.

    Vee - uh - cross

    Usually when people ask what it is, you end up having to say it twice before they get it anyways.

    "What is that?"

    "An ISUZU Vehicross."

    "A what?"

    "A VEE-UH-CROSS!"

    "Ah.... neat."

    No no no! Swell up with pride, stick your chest out and, in a pompous manner, say "Ve AH Cross" like Ted Kennedy would say it..but then I'm from Cape Cod.
