    '99 with 88k &:
    1. Dynomat soundproofing on sides
    2. Flashing brake light
    3. Side turn indicators
    4. Custom sub box with 1 sub and dash volume control. 2 Storage compartments in box as well
    5. Weathertech shields on both windows
    6. Magnetic bra
    7. Red leather 4wd shifter
    8. Equalizer (under driver seat)
    9. Pioneer 5 disc player
    10. Hardwired Sirus radio hookup
    11. Heavy factory tint
    12. Nerf bars
    13. Pioneer head unit
    14. Mounting bracket on dash for IPod
    15. Astral Hot Wheel currently residing in the fuzzy box.
    16. Religious 3k mile maintenance
    17. Aftermarket alarm
    18. 265/70 R16 Michelins

    That's all that comes to mind at the moment but I'm sure I've forgotten something. As you might know Tone's fingerprints are all over these mods as he installed everything. Possibly "For Sale" at a firm $9k

    You know I'm on the fence about this. I had a nasty sasquach looking guy willing to give me $9k but then told me he planned on gutting the interior's back half to "carry tools around". I declined---she deserves better. The problem is it's sitting in the garage more than it's being driven. I have an upcoming retirement in December and momma & I were considering a "touring" car to travel about. If I do go out and get a Lexus Hybrid or Infiniti then I'm looking at 3 autos (the VX and my '06 Frontier) with each needing insurance.

    So as I said I'm not really sure what to do. I guess I'll fall back to a lesson my daddy taught me early in life in that "if you don't know what to do then do nothing--things usually will take care of themselves".

    If I find the right owner I'll let the jewel go but I'm not flexible on the price so she'll be mine for a while longer I think.....and I'll have no regrets. None at all.

    Well...at least that's of some comfort to me...

    And speaking as a "nasty sasquach looking guy"...I'd like to point out, we ain't all bad...

    However I do agree, she deserves better than having her rear interior gutted & filled with tools...

    I'm going to 2nd that Sasquatch remark. Apparently the VX is THE go-to vehicle for us lanky, gangly fur-covered fools. An natural choice given our chosen habitat

    Thousand pardons. I had no clue there were this many "megafauna cryptid yeti brown hybrids" out there lurking about. I hold no ill will and please keep your shirts on (for those of us with allergies). Drive on I say, and may your windows always have a dark tint.

    Vin: #0764
    Miles: 170,000
    Me: NOT a Sasquatch, but am the 4th owner of this VX. The 2 previous owners were also members on this board. In fact, I just searched and emailed the guy who owned it before the person I purchased from. He confirmed some of the engine work I was told about and basically said great things about the truck. I love this site!

    My other cars:
    2003 Porsche 996 Carrera Coupe (My garage queen)
    2002 BMW 325CI Coupe (selling to make room for the VX)
