    *blink* Ohmygod. I'm suddenly having flashbacks to the Mythbusters episode where they were trying to see if a kleenex box on the back deck was dangerous. I'm glad you didn't catch a hitch to the head!!

    Well they deemed my VX total loss on friday afternoon, pretty bummed, thier taking it away, I couldnt keep it, but i am going to try to find where its going, so maybe a fellow VX'r can find it, cuz its cosmetic, so only real damage is the passenger side and the missing windows, it only had 75xxx on it, so all yall needing parts maybe you can use it. I plan on again buying one but im goin to wait to save money so hopefully ill find one all pimped out already for offroading. Good Luck to yall. Thanks for all the advice!!!!

    Bummer. It's kind of surprising that your VX was totalled having only the limited damage it appeared to have in the pictures, but with the book values falling so drastically over the last few years, and shop labor rates being so high, I'd imagine it was probably the man-hours and paint work that did it.

    I suppose that's what makes VX repairs fall into the category of labors of love, and points out at least ONE of the problems of insurance companies...no imagination.
