I had my VX for 4 years and the only problems I ever had with it were my fault. I passed mine on only because of my desire to build my own vehicle. The VX is not a cheap vehicle to own and it does have it's own quirks and limitations and intimidations. Still I knew that before I decided to buy one and bought one anyway. I figured if there was ever a time to own one, sooner is better than later! I don't regret my decision whatsoever because the VehiCROSS (along with this site) was the most entertaining/enjoyable, life altering vehicle I could have imagined. I still have thoughts of buying another one after I meet some goals...
So I would say pick out a good one and enjoy it and yourself for as long as you can before you settle on something else and regret not taking the leap.
