Is a d5 a great deal right now?
Haha. Well for me, now is the time to build what I want, before anyone else gets a say. Unless that never happens and I keep doing what I want till I die... That is still a pretty slick setup even with the need/want to expand if permission is granted. I honestly hadn't thought about a car lift...- backcountryLR4

Is a d5 a great deal right now?
I feel that would be the route I would go too. The better overall driver, the more driver aids could combine to result in a safer driving experience. You have quite the stable there @avslash. As someone who is looking to build a new house mainly so I can get a massive garage space for toys and...- backcountryLR4

Is a d5 a great deal right now?
Gotcha, Definitely some stuff on that list that no LR4 has regardless of options. Since I don't have kids I honestly don't know which I would prefer more: pure safety after an accident, or more stuff to maybe prevent an accident with an inexperienced driver, but also a potential crutch. Prolly...- backcountryLR4

Is a d5 a great deal right now?
"Modern safety features" like what? The LR3 and LR4, an 11ish year run of a vehicle, has never suffered a fatality according to Land Rover and what research could be done against NHTSA data by members on this site. Which is one reason I believe the insurance to be so low. So overall safety...- backcountryLR4

Safety Devices Roof Rack
This looks like a poor man’s version of the ProSpeed rack for more money. Not as many mounting options, much higher profile... Having a ProSpeed, I would not have considered this rack.- backcountryLR4

More proof the LR4 is a very safe vehicle
My LR4 is worth 4-6x what my 10 year old Infiniti G35xS is. They are both the exact same to insure. The Infiniti also had great crash ratings. But it is my understanding that the LR4 and possibly the LR3 have no fatalities in involved accidents in all of North America or at least the dealer told...- backcountryLR4

Compomotive PD 1881 finish delamination
That is definitely a crazy situation. Curious to see how it can be resolved. I have always planned to refinish my compos at some point. The “black” color is almost grey in comparison to the factory black pack wheels. When my KO2s need replacing, I was planning on getting them refinished to to...- backcountryLR4

Showoff Your LR4
Ceramic coating or not, that crazy flat back gets dirty in wet, dirty environments like snow in the Rocky Mountains. I got a 2 stage ceramic coating after getting professional paint correction. The guy is one of the best on the west half of the country and is flown all over to work on...- backcountryLR4

Prospeed Rack
Finally got mine, and for the most part love it. Unfortunately two of my crossbars and bosses were mounted 4° off level and would not allow me to properly mount my batwing awning with the ProSpeed folding brackets. They sent me washers that allowed me to use crossbars that were level(the front...- backcountryLR4

Snow Chains
Your G is a beaut... Still super clean. I had that same generation with an 04 but traded it in for an 08. I honestly never want to get rid of it. 6 full sets of wheels, you got me beat for sure! I run some 18x9 enkei pro wheels(even have two valves stems to run nitrogen instead of compressed...- backcountryLR4

Snow Chains
Seems like a great solution for an LR3, but not many(and by that I mean any) wheels will work on an LR4 without modification. (except Compo's and like two pairs of steelies now) Did I also mention I have 18 wheels/tires under my roof... I am already the male version of a crazy cat lady (but...- backcountryLR4

Snow Chains
I have been torn whether to get winter tires on my OEM rims. The rims are absolutely mint and rough winters where I live would put an end to that. My KO2s on my Compos do pretty good in the snow, but I honestly prefer driving my Infiniti G35xS with my winter wheels and blizzaks in the snow...- backcountryLR4

Tuffant Steelies...alternative to Compos
Nice to have another alternative, but...... I'll be sticking with my Compos. Almost a thousand dollars cheaper for a set of 5 though... But when you think about it, this truck is a BOAT... (Bust Out Another Thousand)- backcountryLR4

Snow Chains
Well... I have driven plenty in California most recently last month over Donners pass in a total blizzard with about 16” of snow on the road with no plows in sight. They had multiple checkpoints where they were turning people around. (And good thing cause I passed some people literally parked...- backcountryLR4

1 Year with my LR4
Holy crap! I have had mine for 2 years and 1 month. Got it with 21k miles and just hit 41,200 exactly pulling into my parking spot at the office today. 2,500 miles were done just in the 2 days getting it home from the dealer where I bought it. Helps that I’m single with 2 cars, spreads the...- backcountryLR4

Opinions please (Non-Technical)
Yep, done exactly that plenty of times. And nope, I don’t consider that a dick move at all. But having wasted spots due to snow is a very common occurrence where I live due to the fact that it practically doesn’t get above freezing for 6 months (exaggeration I must admit, but feels like that...- backcountryLR4

Will our LR4's be desirable in 10 - 15 years, or are they just another modern day LR?
Nice. Well you take what you can get. Worth going through everything with a fine tooth comb (I recommend getting both batteries tested) and getting things replaced for free while you can. I’ve got a couple years and 60k miles left on my warranty. I’ll for sure run out of time before I do...- backcountryLR4
