    Anyone end up buying their Grenadier order

    Nope, unfortunately they do not. The 2nd row folds down in half and then they can tumble forward against the backs of the front seats but they don't drop down flat like in our LR4s.

    Anyone end up buying their Grenadier order

    I'm second in line at a local Lexus dealership for an Overtrail GX550. Just got word that there are 8 GX550s on the way to the dealership and 2 are Overtrails. They're both white which isn't my first choice but, one way or another, I'll have a GX550 soon.

    Long Roof Rails

    Original extended/long roof rails and the Thule crossbars. This stuff is just sitting in my garage in Scottsdale, AZ and taking up space. Would sell it in person for an amazingly cheap price. Will ship for a bit higher price, but still cheap!

    Long Roof Rails

    I have a set of OEM extended/long roof rails for sale as well as a pair of locking Thule Aeroblade cross bars. Here are some photos showing the OEM roof setup with the OEM extended rails.

    2015 LR4 SCV6 Gas Mileage

    Nope, Costco is 2.2 miles from my house. I drive all over Phoenix for work and I frequently find myself low on fuel and will drop a couple gallons in to get me back across town to Costco. Six bucks is six bucks.

    2015 LR4 SCV6 Gas Mileage

    Fuel tank is reported at 22.8 gallons. I was showing about 5 miles till empty yesterday and I pumped 2 gallons in (at $5.10/gallon) just to get me across town to Costco where gas is $4.80/gallon. I put 19.8 gallons in at Costco so I must have still had a gallon left when I was near-zero on the...

    ftillier's maintenance history

    I don't understand why other manufacturers don't make their seats fold flat. The LR4 is pure genius in this respect. You have a giant, absolutely flat cargo area with seating for 5 completely hidden. If my LR4 wasn't so repair intensive and I planned on keeping it forever, I'd remove the 3rd...

    ftillier's maintenance history

    Of course the longevity is key. My truck's first mile driven off the lot was $65k per mile. My 2004 D2 expenses evened out - even after a replacement engine - over a nice, long 12 years of ownership.

    Thank you, this makes me feel less sucky.

    ftillier's maintenance history

    I agree. My old 2004 D2 served me well from when I bought it in April 2008 with 49,800 miles on it until I dumped it for parts in September 2020 with 182,800 miles. When you factor in everything I dumped into it (maintenance, repair, and all the extras like roof rack, bumpers, winch, skid...

    2015 LR4 SCV6 Gas Mileage

    The fuel tank on these trucks is a joke. I spend more time at my local Costco gas station than I do with my children.

    maintenance history since new 2013

    Local independent shop. Between my 2004 D2 that I retired at 170k miles with a second bad engine and this LR4 with 123k miles, I've given this shop about $55k since 2009. Once I finally retire from Land Rovers I think they have to get me a gold watch.

    maintenance history since new 2013

    Nope, timing chains are just fine. I've replaced just about everything else though. Rear air shocks are still original.

    maintenance history since new 2013

    Damn, I took old Boom Boom in for an oil change at 123,157 miles on the clock and 5,008 miles since his last oil change. Had an appointment for Thursday. On Wednesday I thought, "So nice to just take him in for an oil change and not a repair." Then, of course, I get a suspension fault...
