    2021 facelift released

    What do you all think? Rear end still looks rubbish? I think they tried their best to make cosmetic visual changes because they are still confined to the existing sheet metal stamping. The next generation will have to be the real big change in design, so we are stuck with the awkward oblong...

    OEM Rear ladder versions

    Hi, Thought I'd resurrect this thread. I currently have the OEM ladder and read that the Front Runner Slimline II rack does not work with the OEM ladder. Which Front Runner roof rack do you have that works with the OEM ladder?

    Another Defender hint?

    Official LRNA photo gallery. Can’t get over how toyishly stub the rear end looks from the rear wheels to the back bumper. This entire brand is failing. https://www.landroverusa.com/future-vehicles/defender/gallery-defender.html

    Another Defender hint?

    Ahh, so they put stock RR/S and Disco parts on this thing and only testing out the sub-body parts that we cannot see? If that is the case, why did they take the time to heavily camouflage this test mule <shrugs>

    Another Defender hint?

    There are some spy shots out there. Looks like a stubby version of a RR Sport and that soft feminine look; taillights look near identical - ugh. I was really hoping for a more rugged-looking successor to the super feminine, ultra-soft looking Discovery. Why did they do that to the new...

    Any experience with the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform?

    Water Pump Hose - is it covered under Factory Warranty?

    Hey folks - I tried searching the forum ahead of time but does anyone know if hoses are covered under the Factory Warranty? Reason I ask is I went in for a check-up and the Tech indicated some hoses are showing signs of leakage. I figured if they were under warranty, the Tech would have simply...
