My Seattle vacation is just about over, and things have fallen together such that I’m going to take a look at this on my way home from Logan Airport tomorrow morning.

Kinja'd!!!

If I can agree on a price with the seller, I’ll need to do some creative accounting to make it work. Basically, I’ll definitely have to sell my Yukon (good news) and possibly have to part out my red Miata (bad news), but that doesn’t bother me because as you can see, the vehicle I’d acquire is AN ISUZU GOD DAMN VEHICROSS.

So I’d give up the shitty Yukon and a shitty Miata, but I’d have what might amount to my 2-car budget dream garage in the Vehicross and ‘93 Miata. Even if the Vehicross needs a transmission, which I can source locally, it’s a really good price. Also, it’s a Vehicross, so I want it quite badly.

This is good news, I was wondering what the update on this was.

Yessss! I love those things! They still look like they’re from some kind of sci-fi alternate reality too

Other than looking cool, what the deal with the Vahicross? Is it more than a smaller FJ Cruiser.

Awesome! And now I’m off to craigslist.

That’s literally the deal. They look cool. So as a halo vehicle, they draw in prospective buyers, whom can be upsold on other vehicles in the showroom because only 10,000 of these exist but you can leave with a Rodeo today, sir. Otherwise they’re basically Troopers.

Logan you say. Can we set up a playdate?

It’s basically a funky looking 2 door Trooper with Isuzu’s great Torque-On-Demand system. The Cruiser is a good allegory, they’re both capable off readers who mainly trade on their appearance. Also rarity, they only did about 4000 of them over 3-4 years.

Ha! I like it. If it needs a tranny maybe I’ll set one up for that, then crowdsource Oppo’s opinion for mods, so it would really be Oppo’s Vehicross, not just mine.

There’s nothing else that looks like it. I saw one a guy did in a flat-satin camo green and it looked so cool with the plastic trim. I think I’d go desert tan myself.

Wow, that will be one of the most oppo vehicles on here if you pick it up. I actually had a lead on a great cheap vehicross when I got my 02 4runner and since it rusted out in a year I really wish I had pulled the trigger on the isuzu.

If it is oppo’s vehicross can we name it the Vehiboss?

Go find yourself a Vehicross. We’ll start an Oppo Vehicross Club and look down our noses at people with SUVs that look like they’re not from the year 2300.

I looked. Salvage title for 3500. Decent condition for 7500. And great condition, tastefully modified Ironman edition for 15k. More than I want to spend

Accurate. I’m glad this one isn’t an Ironman...I’m a big fat bastard so I’m not about to have physical activities I’ll never do written right on my truck.

Lol I’m the opposite but I’m still never doing that. Probably would just take the badges off.

It’s embossed in the seats though. Easy to take off the outside badges, but I’d hate covering up the nice Recaros.

That’s fine. You don’t see them when you’re sitting in them.

But I would know. I suppose I could put a Stark Industries decal on it, make it about a different IronMan.

Good plan! You should definitely do that if you ever acquire one.

Hopefully I’ll just go ahead and acquire this one tomorrow and won’t need to worry about it. Apparently Foxfire Red Mica is the rarest color, so that’s neat.

Cool truck! I always thought they look like something you could drive on the moon and also looks like it has fangs in the center grille.
