So I'm conflicted... May sell the VX. Unique opportunity

[crotchrocket]

Its a nice 4x4, there's no doubt about it but it is a utility vehicle, say good bye to the comfort of the VX!

have you tested one yet?

Only the D90 not the 110. I know it's not without its trade-offs. But here in the states these are rare!! way more so than the VX. Only 500 legally imported in 94, and then a few hundred Grey Market imports, and now a handful of Imports under the 25 year import law. And I have a 3 mile commute If I was really after "Comfort" It wouldn't be a VX I'd be driving anyway, especially not one with 33" tires and Bilstiens

Of course what comfort I did/do have may go out the window with the D110. But what I loose in comfort I make up in Doubling my fuel mileage.

Dude, sounds like you got the bug, if the Landy is all good, go for it!

Oh wow, doood. Finally a "thinking of selling" thread that I have some respect for.

Jeez, that is a wicked tough choice. It pains me to say it, but given the circumstances, I would say go for it. I think this vehicle is a rarer opportunity than a VX. And I think you could probably get another VX down the road if you wanted to.

I love my VX, it's paid off, and I have no reason or desire to sell it. The D90s and D110s are like my other dream vehicles. If I was made of cash I probably would have sourced a 110 instead of the Trooper. Granted, I love my Trooper, but yeah, the Defenders are SOOO cool. My Trooper is going to be a "poor man's 110" by the time I am done with it, but you have a chance to have the REAL DEAL. That said, part of my decision to NOT get a Rover was the cost, and the fact that I already knew I had a nice support network of ZuZu fans at the ready. Plus, I actually do like the look of the 1st gen Troopers. I'm sure there are some good LR forums so you will be just fine.

Just promise me you will meet up with us sometime so I can see this thing if you get it!!

FINALLY someone who is thinking of trading up for an equally cool vehicle and not a CAR or something more practical and boring like that!
