    Interior Wood Trim set part number for 2012 Luxury Limited Edition

    Thanks avus9. I'd love to see the trim in real life before shelling out the million dollars. Hopefully I'll spot one around some day. Glossiness is OK for me as long as it is dark, rich colored wood.

    Transparent Hood for Off Roading

    Cant wait to see the 22" wheels with an inch of sidewall on the new Explorovery compliment this great feature :)

    Interior Wood Trim set part number for 2012 Luxury Limited Edition

    Thanks for the offering the trade, Surfrider. I didn't go for the piano black as I preferred the wood with my beige interior. And, yes I was able to track down the part numbers (They are sold as individual pieces and not as kit so I am told). I'll let you guys guess the cost (parts only...

    FFRR against TerraMax

    Thats the type of fear that kept me from venturing into a dirt road in Mojave last week. I just didn't feel comfortable with Contis on that surface. I got on the dirt road but after thirty or forty feet into it, really, reversed back onto the pavement :) Maybe I am being overly cautious, but...

    Nail in Tire...replace both tires?

    The one thing that I like about OEM Contis is the side wall bulging out noticeably more than other brands. It gives you the illusion of having a bit more rubber on those 19 inch wheels. Other brands seem to have flatter side wall compare to contis.

    FFRR against TerraMax

    "But, But it can wade this much water, and and it has this much wheel articulation and terrain response 2 which would do things automatically for you...", responds the sales person at the dealership. Anything less than 17 or 18 inch and you are asking for trouble, have no confidence while going...

    Nail in Tire...replace both tires?

    Cool, I prolly would have done the same in your shoes. Break em in nicely for the first few hundred miles or so, no cornering, hard braking, speeding, etc. What size did you get?

    2010-2011 nav update

    How do you check if your nav is up to date? Can you check inside the car (menu item or something)? Mine is MY13 for instance. I checked on Navigation.com and it shows that for my model year there is an update but I may already have that update. The site doesn't say when was the update issued.

    Nail in Tire...replace both tires?

    I'd recommend the same, bite the bullet and buy two new tires. I ran into the same situation a few months ago, with less miles than yours. The nailed tire was un-repareable. I have HD package with full-size spare. So I bought one new tire and put the spare in service with the new one, and...

    Left the gas cap and lid open after filling up

    Left the gas cap off and the fuel door open after filling up ...and drove for six or seven miles (freeway and city). Any harm done at all? I noticed that the fuel door was half shut (about 45 degrees) and a bit pressed toward its closing position (not fully closed due to cap being hung on...

    2015 the new discovery

    Yeah I could never bring my self to getting one. The lack of rear diff and cargo room killed it for me. They returned the rear locker in the new RR but seems like they have reduced the rear cargo room even more. How many times I stopped by a local dealership, sat in one, looked hard at the...

    2015 the new discovery

    The 2002 BMW-designed Range Rover? I remember attending NY Auto show when the re-design was introduced. It looked nothing like the Explorer. It was a good evolution of its iconic design. No-nonsense front grille (just horizontal lines with no jewelry or diamonds attached to it), and return...

    Interior Wood Trim set part number for 2012 Luxury Limited Edition

    I have always felt that, in real life and not in marketing pictures, the wood trim for LR4 has been cheap looking as hell. Its just LR' way of keeping LR4 distant from their top dog. I mean, even LR2 has better looking/feeling wood trim quality. How hard it is for them to offer a rich...

    Thanks. And you meant OEM above by EOM, right?

    Good place for OEM parts?

    Preferably in the states for easy shipping, unless the cost difference negates overseas shipping cost. Starting to personalize the car a little bit but want to avoid going to stealers as traditionally everything is jacked up quite high. I am in southern cal area, if someone here knows a...

    2015 the new discovery

    And thats a sigh of relief. Looking at the videos (exterior design in particular), the front looks promising and it does have a solid feel, but they have gone too far, toward a conventional design IMHO as far as the side profile is concerned. The tapered/crushed roof line kills the iconic LR4...

    2015 the new discovery

    Could not agree more. LR has lost it and given in to the design schemes that date pretty quickly, so basically they are moving to becoming just like any other brand. This new concept design (not the technology) looks nothing but conventional, a cross between an Acura MDX, Mercedes, Audi, Ford...
