    haha i fit most of the descriptions listed here..

    23 (got it when i was 20 though) white(ish) male.. active (camping 2-3 times a year, hiking, getting into triathlons).. enjoy the attention.. obsessive about the VX

    i would also tend to think most VXers could be described as "car people" i get the most comments/ praise from people who like to be around cars

    Eric how you're doing with your VX ?

    You figured out how to fix the coolant leak ?
    Dakar was just the begining.

    most common denominator?

    It appears to me (as I logged on and off the site all day) that the most common denominator of vx owners (at least those that are active on the thread) is we all appear to have waaay too much free time at work to spend on the computer surfing the vx forum...

    LoL X4!!!!!! I was thinkin that we all have a bit of money, anyone who is strapped for money has the wrong car. If you haven't had problems yet, then its a ticking bomb. Parts are so expensive, and hard to get, this is not the "poor" man's car, nor is it the most reliable, with all the threads I have seen about problems and the poorly located alternator, power steering and ac compressor. Not sayin its any less reliable than any other car(it does drink oil in a lot of them), but man, an older civic, sentra, camry or whatnot is for more practical.
    So, Vx owners.....not too concerned with practical.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    I would say the VX is impractical, yes, but only not reliable if you neglect it. A well cared for Isuzu will not only last a LOOOOONG time, it will be a vehicle you can depend on.

    I do not come on each day and post that everything went and worked well today I log on and post when I have an issue and need help from better mechanics than I on diagnosis and solution.
