-SPACE-
Yes, I can put a car seat back there, its not easy but I deal with it daily.
But it really isnt as convenient as a four door SUV. Nor is the storage space.
During hunting season I have one seat folded down and all of my gear on that side while my son sits in his seat on the other. Dont worry, it is all safe. Everything is out of reach. However it is crammed!


-ENGINE-
Mine burns oil and it makes me wonder if one day it will just stop. Will I be faced with a bill for a new engine this year, next year or 5-10 years down the road? Been dealing with this issue for a while. Burns a quart every 500 now. BUT, I am on the first leg of the diesel oil experiment.

-WHAT ELSE-
This is what keeps me here and driving the VX. Nothing else compares! Looks wise. Every time I think about what i would drive daily instead I just cant pull the trigger. Nothing is rare enough or "cool" enough to be driven daily. I have thought about an Axiom but finding a good condition 2004 for a reasonable price (what they are worth), with the options I would like is not the easiest.

However, as bland as it is, a Porsche Cayenne Turbo has caught my attention mainly because I found one and it is for a pretty good price....450hp is tempting. Sell the VX and my Firebird and have one 450hp monster?
Yes Porsche may have problems but doesnt my VX?
im in your same boat - for me i think its finally time - i love it but i need something more reliable and easier to find parts for - giving it a week or two on here then putting a sign on it in the front yard

i would never tell someone to sell their vehicross, but i also completely understand when someone does
