    Conti OEM tires

    Love mine. Not in 19s because of the Compomotives but still very happy.

    A couple of items on my 2010 LR4

    As far as the window. Just hold the window button up until you hear a "click". It should take about 2 or 3 seconds. For the rest, you might want to have a dealer check it.

    Asfir 4x4 sump guard

    They're there to help with aerodynamics. Who knows, maybe someone at LR thought that they'd help gain a few mpgs. I've also taken mine off.

    Future LR Models in US

    @jwest. Sounds like you built yourself a pretty sweet truck. Glad it meets your needs. Just watched a short video posted by NASDiesel in which a VW Touareg (used as the base for the Dakar - extremely modified admittedly but so is your truck) is as capable as any other vehicle climbing a pretty...

    Future LR Models in US

    I had to fully deflate my 265/65R18 DuraTrac to fit it underneath. It's hanging kinda low and it's gonna get out of there and get strapped into the trunk when I go offroad.

    Future LR Models in US

    I did state that it is my personal preference and that I am partial to it! Based on your signature(s), I assume that you drive LR3s rather than LR4s for a specific reason... Maybe financial... No judgement there I like both platforms. Most expedition vehicles usually carry extra fuel...

    Future LR Models in US

    I got a thing against diesel as you can probably read in my posts. Again I personally could care less for a diesel (especially in this country where gas is still cheaper than 15 years ago in Europe where I used to be driving gas thirsty BMWs...). Also I do prefer turbo to supercharger...

    Future LR Models in US

    Can't totally disagree with you however I don't buy a luxury vehicle to feel like I drive a tractor. And the Sprinter is all but comparable to a LR4. However it definitely is a utilitarian van as I had stated. You buy diesel for commercial use or because you live in a high tax rate country (or...

    Future LR Models in US

    Yep. Really don't want a diesel. Never bought one when I lived in Europe. The reason to have a Diesel engine is because you are in a country that has a poor economy or where cars and trucks are taxed based on their engine... There's no real upside to a diesel besides for trucking companies...

    Definitely. It's beautiful here. I've been around the whole country a few times and it's difficult to beat the scenery around here. I believe the TAT is not too far either...

    Selling Frontrunner roof rack

    Based on the pictures, I assume that you do not need the LR roof rails to install it. Am I right?

    LR4 largest Tire size with lift on 18" Compomotives

    I've been loving my DuraTrac tires. Went off-roading yesterday in Red River, NM, mostly dry but they performed great on rocks and in mud too.

    VT/NH Trails

    Hey I went there a couple times myself. You might find the food at Equinox subpar. I highly recommend going to Silver Fork. It is a six table restaurant and the food there is really good. As far as trails, there are quite a few that are around Mount Equinox itself and if you take the time to...

    Pictures are very pretty. We're thinking about heading there either this weekend (Sunday, Monday) or around the end of the month.

    Yes you'll find ExPo very interesting if you're new to the whole thing. I'm fairly new myself and to be honest it's not all that difficult as long as you use common sense and maybe a little bit of logic and reasoning ;)

    IIDTool for LR4 - When???

    I just wanted to add that they are actually really good at emailing back. Usually within an hour if it's during business hours and/or not a holiday. I bought mine directly from them in Montreal. I do believe that Lucky8 is the sole US distributor. BritParts might be too but I'm not sure if...

    Hey Trekker As you said a couple weeks ago... Now your truck is the exact twin of mine ;) How do you like the DuraTracs. I love mine. I'm gonna feed my dog more to look like yours but I'm not sure I can grow such a beard as yours. Axel

    Cooper Zeon LTZ Off-Road tires on Stock 19" Wheels

    Nah it's not the width. I only went from 255 to 265. 10mm don't really count. The added grip and siping is where it's at. Let's say it's only 2.5-3mpg ;)

    Cooper Zeon LTZ Off-Road tires on Stock 19" Wheels

    Just a quick note on the Goodyear DuraTrac. So far so good. Really quiet altogether, even though there was a perceptible hum during the first 100 or 200 miles in the city. Mine are 265/65R18 but you can now easily find 255/55R19 and they are severe weather rated (snow flake and mountain...

    TPMS are mandatory these days because most people just use their cars to commute and such. They are not drivers and are not taught that they should check certain things regularly in order to drive safely. For some of us TPMS are useless but for the vast majority they are a necessity.
