    Replacement Keys on Backorder?

    Conclusion... almost I received my replacement key from Rover Connections today. Cut was correct, but bottons don't work... I am hoping it is just that the battery is not charged. I'll use it to drive to work tomorrow and get some juice into it then try again. Will keep you all posted...

    Towing - Who has towed what?

    TrailManor 3023 We purchased a used TrailManor 3023 a couple of weeks ago. I had to install the trailer wiring and brake control in our 2005 LR3... which went without much trouble in less than 60 minutes. The TM3023 came with a load leveler and anti-sway hitch setup. That went on the LR3 and...

    Replacement Keys on Backorder?

    I didn't check with dealer since the 2nd key was a good bit cheaper than through Rover Connection... plus the nearest dealer is 350 miles away. I did get a UPS e-notice that Rover Connection sent me something yesterday... it arrives tomorrow. Hope it is the key! TomK Black Hills of South...

    Replacement Keys on Backorder?

    I have had a replacement key on order with Rover Connection since January 08. They sent me one and charged my cc, but when the key arrived (after 4 weeks) it was cut wrong. I returned it to them and they said they would have a new key cut correctly and sent to me. Now ~8 weeks later they have...

    Extended Warranties

    I believe the Suggested Retail Price for the Easy Care Gold TOTALCare $100 ded plan in April for your mileage/yr was $3,172; $200 ded was $2,834. I'd ask the dealer to show you the rate sheets! Maybe there is a geographical adjustments... I'm in the western part of the Midwest. California may...

    LR3 needs new front brakes at 12k miles?

    At recent 22,500 checkup on 2005 LR3 I had an estimated 40% left. I plan in a couple of months to to order pads from somewhere and have them installed locally since nearest dealer is 350 miles away. TomK Black Hills of SD

    Extended Warranties

    Added 5 years from Date of Purchase (today) or 100,000 miles on odometer... whichever comes first. So, if my calculations are correct, I can drive an average of 15,400 miles a year for the next 5 years... under warranty. But I suspect I will trade for another LR before then. TK

    Suroco Urban Rack

    Change of plans... After seeing Landy Man's "One can take it all with you" setup, I was compelled to look into a Travel Trailer solution. We are now looking at a TrailManor 3023. Its not for off-raod pullin' for sure, but the TrailManor looks like a very well designed and built camper. I...

    Suroco Urban Rack

    Landy Man... Nice rig! I've been directed towards a TrailManor 3023. Apparently tows like a pop-up and lives like a travel trailer. A dealer near here has a new 2006 on sale. We'll see. It may be just the ticket... except pulling it to some of the remote campgrounds we go to (e.g., Hole in...

    Suroco Urban Rack

    Surco Urban Rack I am getting my new (to me) LR3 ready for the camping season rapidly approaching. My wife and I tent camp in luxury... and incomprehensible concept for many of our friends... one of whom considers staying in a Super 8 to be "roughing it". Consequently we have LOTS of...

    Looking for Ideas on Personalized Plates.

    In South Dakota I have LR3 on my plates. Elicited quite a few comments from the staff of the dealer in Denver when I was down there a couple of weeks ago.

    New Guy from the Black Hills of South Dakota

    Hello! Last Friday I "bought" a 2005 LR3. "Bought" doesn't seem quite the right word though. My #2 son was home for the Holidays and since my 97 Lexus LX 450 was getting near 150,000, we went shopping for a new vehicle for "DAD". I had my mind made up to get a Hummer 2, but #2 son would...
