    Dealer: 2013 production for LR4 is over. No changes for 2014.

    I've decided that I'll definitely order a new 2014, but I'm going to wait until after the first of the year. I battle with the decision to Drop the Landrover completely for something else, but I honestly cannot think of a single other vehicle that offers such luxury and capability all in one...

    LR4 2011 map update

    Yep, the navigation is the single biggest frustration for me on my rig. I hate it. Yes, I know I can use my iPhone or buy a Garmin. It annoys the crap out of me that for $58k, the navigation is so poor.

    Showoff Your LR4

    Dirt Truck did fantastic on the Alabama trail. Narrow, muddy path so tight we couldn't open the doors. The truck never even hesitated.

    Painting with Plasti-Dip

    I ordered mine off of Ebay last week and I just got them in my hand. They are landrover originals part number LR040890. They're awesome looking. Funny how even the little stuff gets me amped up. I also just realized that I only ordered 4. Now I need one more.

    Post Powder Coat Picked up the wheels today and promptly bolted them on. Here's the final product. I also ordered black & silver caps and I'll probably stick with the stock silver lug nuts.

    Kaymar Bumper Question

    Sadly, I don't know. There was a small metal bracket that we just couldn't figure out. They make the instructions in pictures rather than words and I'm ashamed to say that we had a hard time with it. We did figure it out, but even afterwards, the pictures still didn't make sense. They're in...

    Questions About the 2013

    I was just kidding, but... Take a look at wet Okoles before you order from LR. Great fit, neoprene like a wetsuit, custom colors, etc. I ordered a set for the back seats to protect the leather from my two monkeys, 5 & 14.

    Painting with Plasti-Dip

    Yep, I painted the side grilles and the front grill over the weekend. i removed all the badges and will install the Kaymar on Saturday. The Dukes are going to be matte black with the same brushed lip as before. I'm basically changing the gunmetal to black. I left the lip because I was...

    Painting with Plasti-Dip

    Not much to say here but to acknowledge the Good and Bad of trying to paint my wheels. I cleaned the wheels and wiped them with alcohol and then with a dry towel. I masked off the parts I wanted clean, and proceeded to put down three coats of black plasti-dip paint. I started with one wheel...

    Lug Nuts

    I'm getting my Redbourne Duke wheels powder coated black with the brushed aluminum lip. With the main part of the wheel black, I'd like to order black lug nuts to match. Does anyone have a good source on lug nuts for landrover? There are a lot of manufacturer's, but I really need to know the...

    IIDTool for LR4 - When???

    I'll have to check again. I updated the firmware this week and didn't see it. I'll check again. I specifically looked for it and didn't find it. Huh? Anyway, if you have the trailering package on, you should definitely see the icon.

    IIDTool for LR4 - When???

    Yes it is. You have to get the ccf turned on by the dealer, and then the light comes on when you connect the trailer electrics. I have the vision assist, so there's a whole set-up screen for the trailer type and stuff. The latest version of the IIDTool still doesn't have the ccf option to...

    Winch Mount

    Mike, Actually I'm completely on the fence. There's a pretty good write up on Landrovers Only about the three options being; hidden, landrover, or bumper, (ARB or other). To me the ARB is the obvious choice, but I'm just not sure whether I want to commit to all that weight full time. I...

    Winch Mount

    Does anyone know if the Landrover winch mount is available separate from the winch? I can only find the whole kit winch and all for over $4k so that ain't happening.
