Ok guys, I need some serious opinions here. I've been somewhat involved in this forum for the past year or so and I really enjoy it. I was completely intent on purchasing a new LR4, but then LR did the unthinkable and moved into the soccer mom market. I understand that the 2014 is cool, but without the V8, towing my camper around would be a nightmare. I've looked at a few other vehicles that would be better at towing, but always came back to my 2011 LR4. I like having a new car and modifying it to have all the luxuries or the newest model along with the capabilities that only mods will provide. I also have to admit that the looks help a lot as well.
Additionally, my local dealership is completely useless. I could detail my disappointments, but their attitude and pure laziness is one of the reasons I'm not driving a new 2013. So after disgust with Land Rover and continued disappointment at my local dealership, I'm planning to make a change. I wouldn't ever badmouth my experience with the LR4, I love it and will always admire what once was.
At this time, I'm considering trading in my LR4 for a 2014 Land Cruiser. I've looked it over and I really like what I see. My only real issue is easily corrected. I think that the Land Cruiser, like the JK, looks like crap out of the showroom, but with 2" and larger rubber, it's absolutely awesome.
So here's where you guys come in. Am I nuts? Is the LC200 crap? Am I alone in my thinking or just not patient enough. I keep hoping that they'll announce a diesel or a V8 option, but tired of worrying about it. Thoughts?
