    Yeah, when I say "jump" I mean it's responsiveness. As soon as you put the truck in drive it feels like it wants to go, and when you hit the gas, IT GOES! Everything about the truck feels SOLID. The steering whell, the handling, there seems to be no play whatsoever. Very nice and tight. The turn radius is sick too.

    I've been wondering if the design was inspired by the jumping spider:



    Compact, high off the ground, cool looking eyes, fangs, and ready to spring upon any situation. That's what it reminds me of anyway.

    analogy

    That's a great one! I thought I had heard them all! There is a good poll question. Anyone know how to set that up? The new poll should ask What the VX has been described as. I've heard a short bus, a giant rollerskate, a bumblebee, a submarine, a spaceship, and now.. ( a sure classic) a jumping spider!!! I love this truck! It inspires creativity
    :_drool: It's all fun and games until it can't be fixed!

    The Crab Car

    My sister calls mine The Crab Car because the grill area looks like a crab's mouth (I think she has a point). I've been meaning to photoshop some claws on a picture of one for her, but don't have any photo editing software anymore.
