Doesn't look good for my VX future...

Thanks for the words Knivx. If we did live closer, I'm sure we'd be talking. Bob (Navistar) has been a gracious host in providing me with a connection to learning about the VX, seeing them in person, and even driving one.

Without that reference, I might have been slightly more tempted to consider my find -- though doubtful. Still, he clearly showed me was reasonable wear for this particular vehicle is. And, really, it doesn't wear faster/slower than any other well-treated ride.

The last nugget I discovered just before leaving the demo was the owner had messed up his grill because he put it in a ditch. (Hello possible cause of the drivetrain vibration). Throw that potential problem into the mix and you got one dillusional seller.

My biggest constraint at this point is time. I'm shocked that I haven't replaced my winter vehicle -- especially since my Corvette is still being restored. For six months I've held out -- hoping to find a VX before being forced to buy a Jeep. I drove the car we bought for my daughter. She's now 16 and thumping her foot to take the reins. The proverbial foot is about to fall.

Not winter anymore. (Here in Idaho we never really got one.) So see ya have time to find that VX.

You might want to try putting a VehiCross wanted on all the craigslist within your driving range. You'd be surprised how many people don't have them listed but are willing to sell. It worked really well for me when I was looking to buy

Believe it or not, I've tried this 3 times. Within 24hrs my posts are always flagged and removed. I guess there's other trolling for VX's that don't want someone posting an outright ad to buy. (They don't want to miss out).

FWIW, 2 of the 3 WTB Craigslist posts brought replies from people wanting to know when they could come look at my VX! Morons.

Note: My craigslist ad(s) said....WTB Vehicross -- preferably black. Please contact me IF you have a Vehicross for sale! (phone). Pretty hard to mistake that for a sale post!
