    Should I take the plunge?

    Don't go without HD like the others said. You can live without it in 2013 and earlier because those at least had standard low range. Does it have to have a warranty? I picked up a 2013 with 25k miles last year for $10k less than that and it's a gem...no HD but still...see if you can find a 2013...

    Another Defender hint?

    I'm highly suspicious of these Tusk photos being highly photo shopped

    Review of Continental TerrainContact A/T

    Thanks for the write up and the feedback. This helps me thin down my "what's next" tire selection

    Suspension Position Long Time Parking

    I think we argued about this in another thread. Leave it in normal height and put a battery tender on it. The system will keep itself autoleveled as needed as far as I recall. If you leave it sit high or low it leaves the tires at angles that they're not intended to be for longer term and...

    Another Defender hint?

    Yeah, the 3.5l (original) Ecoboost is a beast and takes a beating. In typical capitalistic fashion they rushed beyond the 3.5 and introduced the 2.7l and the 2.3l and the 1.9l without as much testing. If you ask me they're asking too much to shove a 2.7l into a F-150 but let's look at the...

    Another Defender hint?

    The same thoughts about the "Ecoboost" that Ford dropped into the F150s. Lots of doubt turned into lots of believers. Is it just me or are the roofline pics starting to look like they're hiding a sloped/step on the front end that would be a throwback to the old Defenders/LRs? I personally...

    Showoff Your LR4

    What sliders are those?

    Time to sell LR4

    It's the notorious sign that the tensioners for the timing chain are giving out and the chain is slapping around working its way to failure. Common problem on '10-'12 and thought to be remedied on the '13.

    10.4 inch tesla style infotainment screen

    To anybody thinking about doing this...read that forum. Holy cow...99 pages of comments since December. Lots of noted issues and problems. Here's the thing...if you're going to do this remember that whatever you install is likely running on an Android platform. Mind you it's not a "Samsung...

    10.4 inch tesla style infotainment screen

    I know that feeling but this system is so integrated I just don't see it being an option. Any major post factory mod these days is just asking for chaos.

    10.4 inch tesla style infotainment screen

    In general though if this tech is something you want natively you might be better looking at something other than the lr4

    10.4 inch tesla style infotainment screen

    Just look at this photo shop job and tell me you believe it's real.

    10.4 inch tesla style infotainment screen

    Before you sucker into this look at the pics. It's a totally bad photo shop hack job...buy it and prove me.wrong :)

    10.4 inch tesla style infotainment screen

    I wouldn't burn the cash on that personally. The pics are all weirdly photoshopped/different items etc. How about I set up a go fund me and you guys chip in for a beater Lr4 and I'll do the upgrades/testing/videos;)

    LR4 Xenon + LED signature lights

    I'm with you. I like the dots better than the lines

    Another Defender hint?

    Yeah, that departure angle + externally mounted full spare are good hints. Odds are it's going to be partial hybrid and hopefully a torque beast...time will tell

    Another Defender hint?

    If this Defender rolls out and is capable I wouldn't be shocked if they build a new line with 7 seats on that platform and kill the D5

    parking sensors / volume

    You guys are like a jinx. I suddenly have a parking sensor alert for no reason this morning. Must have knocked one while installing the trailer wiring kit.

    Is a d5 a great deal right now?

    100% agree
  23. TheWidup

    parking sensors / volume

    Yes you can
  24. TheWidup

    Is a d5 a great deal right now?

    You have the rare ability to capture it from that one specific angle that makes the vehicle stand out. I still can't take it seriously from the full side shot...and the loss of command seating. ;)

    Terrible audio

    I can't either. The HK system sounds great to me in general. My wife's '07 XC90 seems to have a little bit deeper bass definition but the clarity of the audio on the HK in the LR sounds much better. I would never call it "tinny" at all. Maybe worth having an audiophile check it out and diagnose?
