First, a big sigh. OK. Our LR4 is gone. In a word - tongue weight (OK, that is 2 words.) We just couldn't get comfortable with the ambiguity surrounding the stated (owner's manual) tongue weight of 550# and the dealer not being able to offer anything that made us comfortable. I had heard all the arguments for and against and finally just decided to give up and get a Land Cruiser (8100 SAE certified towing capacity with a 850# stated tongue weight and the an owner's manual that strongly encourage the use of anti-sway and weight distribution hitches.) Do I like the LC more? Plusses and minuses. A discussion for a different thread and maybe a different forum. Suffice it to say that we loved our LR4 and have some great memories with it. The LC is not the same. Hopefully someone will buy it (I traded it in so as to get the CO state sales tax break) and enjoy it as much as we did.
This forum is great and I want to thank so many who helped us out over the past couple of years.
I do have a full set of 5 Anthracite Compomotive wheels with BFG KO2 265/60 R18 tires mounted on them. I have $4K into those wheels and tires. The tires have at most 8K on them as I just put them on in March and then took them off in April/May. I would like to get $2500 for the combination. I would prefer not to ship but if no one in Colorado wants them then we could work something out.
I also have two of the OEM hitch receivers. I bought a used one that only had one key for about $200. I'd be willing to sell it for $100+shipping. I also have one that I purchased new about 3 months ago and only used once to hold a bike rack. I would like to get $300 for that one.
I also have a set of 4 Nokia Hakkapeliitta r2s 255/55 R19 winter tires that I will sell for about $300. They have at most 10K on them as they have only seen 2 short seasons.
Again, you all have been great. I miss the LR4. But the LC will be better for towing our 6,000# travel trailer in the mountains and though the LC doesn't have some of the features for off road that our LR4 did or as tight a turning radius or is as narrow on the trails or has the awesome interior configurability of the LR4, it does have decent wheel articulation and a moon roof that you can stick your body out.
