    Mean while I have some questions for people that might know the answers.


    1. How many miles should I be able to go on a full tank? And what kind of gas should I fuel it up with??

    Use mid grade fuel. I average around 300 to 350 per tank.. The VX was NOT meant to be fuel stingy. Full time 4 wheel drive and 4000lbs takes alot of fuel.

    2. Should I do a tune up? Even though the car has only 15k on it?

    If it's running good no. Have a good mechanic check it..

    3. Should I change transmission oil?

    Did the previous owner provide you with documentation of services? Do it any way. At 15k it's due.

    4. Are there any other maintenance I should do from the start?
    All regular maintenance ahould probably be done just to be on the safe side.

    5. The rear seats are very comfy, but getting in is a problem cause space is so tiny even if I move forward the front seats.

    Yep!

    6. What 's the max speed in 4-low ?

    ??? There is no listed max speed.. You will use a lot of fuel using this.. I've run up to 50mph.

    7. Is it a good idea to put in a performance air intake , if it is, what's the best one?

    Some swear by them other.... I don't use one

    8. Do we ever have VX meets here in New England? If yes, when?

    Yes, keep checking the meets section

    9. Is it a good idea to re-paint the plastic skirt (bumper) , if yes what kind of paint is the best to use???



    There are a few that have... It's not a nessesary deal but to each his own..
    Hope it helps some.
