I went to 2 prerelease events where they were very open about discussing legal process and taxes. The pickup didn't have a name at the time and they already said they would pay the chicken tax. It would be a big surprise to me if they did something to skirt that tax. They act as if they care...

Pricing is out on Quartermaster. $86900 starting in US, includes chicken tax really not as bad as I expected with 25% tacked on. I would assume they have solid profitability on the grenadier too based on inference from the 25% edit2: and a chassis cab version just announced. tray beds for the...

Did anyone sign up for this? Got the email on Thurs March 28 but wasn't able to firm up plans, check flights, and respond until that Sunday night. I assume I was just too late since there hasn't been any contact. Even though I didnt follow through on my order, this is absolutely what this...

I've been out of town for the eclipse... Have new second row exmoor seats going in. I ordered EXT010-3RH-BSM and EXT010-3LH-BSM. All the brackets came with them. I ordered left and right, no center to do something similar. Probably putting a Dometic or similar fridge mount in the center. The...

Doug's a cool guy and I wish him the best in his non LR ownership. I think he'll be back in a classic defender at some point. I've had the same family concerns come up from time to time and definitely get his reasons. He used to post over on DSource and was nothing but nice. No matter how much...

Looks Jimny Sized... https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2024/02/23/jim-ratcliffe-fusilier-electric-cars-shoved-down-throats/ Side note, Ratcliffe is my favorite billionaire. Tells it like it is.

This is a britpart carrier technically for a truck tailgate. https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-LL1227BP There are no bearings from memory - I installed it in Aug of 2017. Its a fitted bolt with seals and all the interior space gets packed with grease via the zerk. The only thing I disliked about...

The zerk has been replaced with stainless since.

Whenever I'm working electrical, I start with the basics and build up confidence. Check the battery terminals Check that the battery cables are right and not reversed. Check for any loose wires (especially since this was transported) Check frame and engine strap grounds (especially since this...

I backed out on the Grenadier reservation due in part to mileage. For $90k plus as a daily for me it really should be better. If it had been the diesel, I probably would have gone through with the order... the BMW diesels have a good reputation overseas. I was getting 30-32 mpg with the TD6 in...

I agree and I don't know and that has been the most frustrating part of this whole nightmare. Trust eroded to the point I had a coworker drive it home from the dealership while I followed, just because I didn't want to be in the driver seat if it failed again.

I finally have the vehicle back... for $2500 instead of over $2800. Yay discount! :-/ The saga with myself and this dealer is hopefully over permanently. I guess everyone has a story about a $6k oil change? Now to get it on the lift and get the intercooler pipe off - use an inspection camera...

They got the labor covered by JLR goodwill, so they have not spent a dime out of pocket for screwing up my vehicle. I asked about the invoice. It was just $2800 with no breakout whatsoever. There was no response to my ask. If they had just told me some reasonable thing about the invoice, maybe...

Brief :-/ update. Vehicle still sits at dealer. They finished the repair with the aftermarket part ($1450 plus shipping) on my birthday Nov 27, then invoiced me for the price of the factory part ($2800). I was so livid I let it sit a couple of weeks and I still haven't paid it. I offered them...

This has since been removed? Shows zero now...

Why anyone would buy any land rover product period right now with their supply chain issues is beyond me. They would have to pay me to take it. The new defender is cool, but it should have been called discovery

My swap to R2.8, the slave is totally different from stock setup, so that was new. The master (old) started dripping into the floorboard of the truck 1 week driving with the new engine. I already had a dorman kit on my shelf :)

I went in to dealership a week ago yesterday and had a "spirited conversation" with both the trade-in sales guy and the service manager. The trade-in guy offered me trade in value minus the cost of the repair since they would lose the JLR good will coverage on the service. I laughed at him and...
