My LR4 is in the shop for the dreaded coolant leak. Luckily it's just a pinhole leak in the radiator. After 24 years of Land Rover ownership I've just accepted that you can get hit with a thousand dollar repair or maintenance expense at any time. Right now I am averaging $381.51 per month in repair expenses per month over 3.42 years of LR4 ownership. That's repair expenses, not including regular maintenance. If I add in maintenance then my average per month is $623.02. Granted, I have a shop do it all so a lot of this is labor expense but I would either be paying the direct expense or paying with time.
It's such a crock of shit we can't get that here in the states. Except this color, it should be unavailable everywhere. And that LC Mini. Who the fuck puts a color like that on a vehicle and thinks "oh yeah, people will snatch these up".
Or, queers for palestine. Not sure how well that would sell in the off-road community.The Grinch
I’m tracking nearly the same. I still turn wrenches myself on smaller projects but not like I used toI've had my LR3 for six years, I don't think I've spent more than 6k total.

That is a very bizarre thing to say.
I've tried to think if I've ever seen a vehicle that color and I can't remember having done so. Maybe I have, but it's defiantly not a daily occurrence, or weekly, or monthly around here. It must be a regional thing. To me that's an absurd color for a vehicle, almost as absurd as queers for Palestine. Pea green cars, queers for Palestine, and calling people names over the 'net. They all exists on a certain level of stupid.That is a very bizarre thing to say. The color is common on jeeps, so it must sell just fine to the "off-road community". Also common on challengers.
That color, which is on quite a few cars that I see (mostly jeeps), is an iconic color. A like new limelight superbird went for $750k on Mecum.
Dude I've watched your post here. Gotta ask, you come across as a member of the lucky sperm club. Someone who was born on 3rd base and thinks they hit a triple. Am I wrong? I've seen you were a "white water guide" but I can't see how that pays for months long trips across the US. Have I miss judged you? It's easy to do on the interweb.It's an idiotic thing to say.
Definitely daily here. That color's history is at least 53 years old. It's not my cup of tea either, but many people dig it.I've tried to think if I've ever seen a vehicle that color and I can't remember having done so.

Bill Burke has been wheeling / testing a Rivian.Anyone checked out the Rivian RS1? I have an appointment to test drive one after the new year and after I get back from Mexico. Steep entry price but man it looks nice. More flat floor length with 2nd and 3rd row folded than the LR4. 835 HP and 908 torques. 350 or so miles on a full charge. Beats the hell out of my 250 mile per tank LR4. Vegan leather interior....LO fuckin' L. I might swan dive into the full electric hippie crowd.
But then wasn't it here that someone showed a rather minor fender bender that resulted it 42k worth of repairs? So when your monthly loan payment is stupid, but your insurance payment is even stupider..Bill Burke has been wheeling / testing a Rivian.
