It actually this thread that missed the mark.

RDS has had demos for a few weeks. I’m 6’4” and was really comfortable in my non-safari test drive vehicle. Which is great, since my Gren arrived at the Port of Baltimore on 16-Nov!

There at least seems to be a lot of interest from LR owners, and we have a history of making things work well past their expiration date. Happy to take that path if necessary. Just pointing out it is similar in that you now have an non-standard LS installation (like a non-standard B58...

This is how the automotive market works. Case in point, Toyota seems to think their 4cyl+electric motor is a good idea but I will not buy one. What about all those aftermarket LS swaps?

I’ve ridden almost every type of bicycle in the past 40+ years, but never heard of “ice bikes” before.

This is how all manufacturers handle warranty work.

This info will surface reasonably soon - There are literally hundreds of Grenadiers hitting East and West coast ports this month. Owners are also putting them to task in South Africa and Australia.

Straight from the boy racer club. Surprised you even bothered to read it…

Yup, we’re moving is six months, going from an 2-bay to 4-bay garage. I’ll get down to four vehicles by then... Inventory issues seem to be the biggest hurdle.

Yes, the true theory is, as a modern vehicle, it doesn’t fall short. Expecting it to be feature-built like a 1987 model is just bashing it.

For all the bashing it gets, I really look forward to the simplicity of the IG’s off-road mode and axle diff locks. Very basic, tried and true with no system intrusions. I’ll take the coil springs, metal bumpers, boxy shape (accessible cargo space and vertical sides), manual seats and true hand...

It’s about fun, driving as I see fit, and hopefully selecting a vehicle I can drive for 20 years. I’ll add that ford/gm/stellantis are the Fashion Plate. They’re non-starters. I don’t even look at their products.

In all honesty, the Expe (dition) is kind of ugly and soulless. I had to learn auto mechanics out of necessity, and from that I decided life is way too short for boring vehicles.

I don't know if there is a standard, but before our current house was built, I asked the builder to extend the 2-car garage. It was about 19ft standard and he added on 8ft, plus 8ft-clearance doors. This gave me tons of room against the inside wall for a large workbench and storage. To do that...

And then what? Drive a Tahoe?
