What's new

Land Rover Defender

I don't know dick about the luxury stuff but the explorers seem to be super reliable. Just a bit of advice from a non-Ford person who's owned quite a few Fords... one turns into more. You get her a 2021 Explorer, next year you'll have an 89 Bronco with worn out scissors front end that you don't even like but you'll buy it anyway.

I saw a early 90s TTB F250 in Arkansas the other day that had me thinking about that.
 
We have a 2017 yukon xl denali and it is a great family hauler!! The 6.2 is a beast when you want to lay into it and it is stupidly quiet inside, like a library quiet.

I'll take you for a 5min ride in my 97 TTB F250 and that thought will never cross your mind again. Shitty ride is a complete understatement to describe it. :laughing:

But I would never sell it, love my truck. Some day it will probably get an 05+ SD axle and suspension redo.
 
I've been driving a BMW X5M for three years and it's been solid as a rock. Zero issues. 567 HP and 553 torque. It's a comfortable daily driver, but also fun as hell when you want to drive aggressively.

i have e70 x5 diesel that is deleted and tuned and it’s amazing. 400 hp 600tq and I average 25 mpg :smokin:

would love to try driving a X5M one day
 
Then explain the reliability issues Range Rovers have.

British car with the descendant of Lucas electric? They ran a Buick V8 clone for 50 years before Ford made them stop?
 
Thanks for the advice I didn’t follow. So far she loves her Christmas present.

It is ugly, very ugly. A notch up from an Aztec, maybe.

ive heard “people actually do that!?” A Lot! About a car bring a Christmas present.

interior is awesome. Ride is 100x better than a Jeep but it’s not smooth. It’s small and the St Bernard is not happy. Handles our icey, snowy, gravel winding hills roads fine. No engine light on day 3
 
Congrats on the new pile of shit.
 
One drove by as I was driving out to head to the dump this morning.

Confirmed. Its ugly.
 
So when I watch the xmas car commercials where the young interacial couple exchanges luxury cars with bows on them and I ask myself "who the fuck actually does that?!?" Now I know! :laughing:​​​​​

Im glad I didn't have any coffee in my mouth when I saw this.:lmao:
 
Good luck. Parts are all but non existent and the dealers are robbing new ones to fix other new ones.
 
I certainly wouldn't want to own one out of warranty.

Expecting the VW to last 10 years is funny.

Keep us posted, everyone loves watching other peoples misery.

Best of luck, you're going to need it.
