Aside from the "F" camera, that'd cover everything there. The primes can cover the "F" camera if you ever decided to use it.
18-70 DX
50 f/1.8
85 f/1.8
If I were you, as a consumer or enthusiast, I'd look at expanding the system in this way (selling off the others).
Nikon 18-200 DX (it's an excellent lens, but the 18-70 is a bit better..but this gets you to 200mm in one lens... great travel and walkaround lens).
If you don't like that option, the 70-300 VR is there. Good to around 250mm IMO it's a nice tele to have.
Later, add a 300 f/4 somewhere in your kit (old or new version).
As a consumer, my DX body kit would be.
18-70 DX or 16-85 DX
18-200 DX
300 f/4 AF-S
Don't place so much value in VR. Sometimes it's valuable... other times it's not IMO.
Just my 2 cents...
Happy New Year!

you are right but i already have the 70-300 in a non vr sollution and 95% of my photo's bareley go beyond 70mm *1.5 =aka 105mm
i have to admit that due to a medical issue i tremble a bit , large bodies like the d50 and the 70 help but vr does the trick
