    I'd go grab the VIN and run a CarFax just to make sure.....

    Question- is it grey and have a brush guard on the front end? Reason I ask is there was one that was for sale a while back at a gas station by the intersection of Dairy Ashford and Richmond with that kind of mileage on it. If I remember correctly that particular ride had a salvage title on it. Never did find out where it went.

    I may be up around Spring for the "Spring Tabernacle Car Show" in mid October. Some friend of mine spoke up for my VX to someone up there and was told I should make it an entry. Don't think I'm gonna do it but things change. Hope you find what you're looking for. Always good to have new Houston area owners.

    Its silver with no brush gaurd... but I should do a carfax just to be safe. Does anyone have an active account. I konw I can get a free one, but if someone on here is somewhat of a dealer and wants to check it for me then it would save me the trouble. (pm me if you are). As far as your formula... I agree and come from the same thoughts. I figure if I get the price down then that saves me from what may go wrong. If I fix it, then I know it will last for quite some time... which is a good thing.

    aint no thing, bro. Check the email.

    ANyone know of an easier way to send CarFax info? I had to parse together 3 print screens and just email attachments of the JPGs. There's gotta be a better way out there!

    It worked just fine that way... sorry it was so tough.

    I called my buddy at the dealership and they said I can have it for about 7500... so how does that sound to you guys.... To me it sounds like a steal!

    a gift would be to know the history of maintenance done on the truck. Certain parts of the VX are expensive to replace. Timing belt should have been replaced at 90 k (according to manufacturers suggestion) and that can be a bear to do, certainly expensive at a dealer. How are those windows and how smooth and quiet is that transmission.. you know the drill. Check everything possible. A VX that has been taken care of from the start can be a long time friend.

    Save the file as an html page, or get a PDF "distiller" and print it as a PDF.
