    Off-Roading Pictures

    I believe our trucks are water sealed up to 2-3 ft of water. Thats why the air intakes are on the side and further up. Check YouTube as there are tons of video showing lr4s going through creeks and steams. I have to do a search but there is on out there showing a Narza bronze just leisurely...

    Off-Roading Pictures

    Gotcha. Beautiful backdrop - love California. I wish we had hills like that. Keep the pics coming as it's always awesome to see our trucks doing their thing.

    Off-Roading Pictures

    So did you actually go into the mud as it looks like you stop just short and your truck looks clean in the other photos? Eitherway, it looked like a lot of fun.

    Brakes...LR or elsewhere?

    Also don't forget the pad sensor which is a one-time use part.

    leather cleaner

    I'm another person who uses lexol ceaner/conditioner since I got my truck with the premium lux leather and found that it keeps my leather very soft. Also, since the lux package wrappes the steering wheel in the same premium leather i have to clean/condition it more often since it seems to get...

    Surprised by poor snow performance

    I had the same issue and replaced my tires at 17k miles and it made the difference. My contis were not good in snow/ice but they were also wearing out funny before I got an alignment, which may have contributed to the issue.

    2012 LR4 review

    I had a 2012 hse last week while my lr4 was in the shop for an oil change and must say the new nav UI is really nice compared to my 2010 lux. There were a few things that I didn't like about the hse package: - The led accent lights without the hid low beams look goofy to me as the light...

    First ever off-roading experience in LR4

    Hey Jam, I also live in Dallas and have been meaning to head out to Bridgeport to give it a shot and also do a night of camping on their monthly camp weekends. I have heard from our local DFW land rover club that Bridgeport is a little conservative with their ratings and to be extremely...

    Alignment issue & tire wear

    You may have a point but I didn't take it up with them. I've done some off roading and at the time, thought it may have been that.

    Alignment issue & tire wear

    Yup, had that issue earlier this year and got an alignment done to fix. What stunk was by the time I figured it out, my tires were well down the road of wearing out extremely unevenly. I ended up replacing my tire in August with Michelins and it's been very smooth ever since. Regarding the...

    2012 LR4 at Cost—anyone get a deal on their 2012?

    Ah...that makes sense.

    2012 LR4 at Cost—anyone get a deal on their 2012?

    $66k sounds sorta high to me for the lux. Aren't they only $56-$60k range?

    Volume Indicator?

    I'm wondering if you have a newer software version that allows for this setting as I checked in both the nav main setting menu and I don't get these options. Just to clarify, I'm suppose to be in my nav settings and see an option for setup? I also checked the settings under audio/video and...

    Volume Indicator?

    What! Seriously? I installed an audison bit ten and did not see the volume level for knowing where roughly 75-80% volume level was to set my de-equalization. Thanks for the heads up. I'll take a look tomorrow.

    LR4 19" Wheels

    If he's getting the compmotive wheels he can't use the OEM 19" wheel/tires. He would probably buy 5 new wheels along with 5 new tires.

    iPhone IOS 5 WARNING

    I totally agree. I still use my iPod classic and carry all my music, leaving it in the truck all the time unless I'm needing to add new songs. FYI, the iPod integration makes scrolling/searching easier for large music libraries as I believe using regular USB thumb drives have a GB limit...

    continental 4x4 contact review tirerack.com

    They were horrible in the snow/ice we got here in Dallas last year. I was excited to use my snow mode and slipped and slid all over the place while even driving under 10mph. I literally could not even brake without sliding at a stop sign going 10mph...it was ridiculous. I ended up replacing...
