I wish it was easier to get rollmops around here...

That LR short wheelbase thing looks like an automotive butt plug...

Man, I love the cameras. Where were they when I was playing in the dirt with my lil' trucks and LC? Go to 5:30.

I love to have a wagon like Vash posted. I am not sure if I buy the Bronco or LR? I am still not too trusting of the LR in terms of reliability. Like they say in Australia. If you want to go out to the bush, take a LR. If you want to come back, take a Land Cruiser. Suddenly, there are so many capable vehicles. I hear there's a huge interest in Overland exploration? I just can't wait to get my kid's 4 runner done. We are going to go play. It has a factory rear locker. How cool is that?

If I were new vehicle shopping I would not buy anything till the new Bronco is available. Folks comparing LR to Toyota are funny, two entirely different approaches to off road capable, both pretty good stock, Toyota more reliable but cheap interior similar to econobox sedans, where the LR is luxury, visibility, and if you ignore service intervals less reliable. Having owned multiple LR products my advice is to invest in cardboard boxes to protect your driveway �� But for the most part LR vs Toyota is like comparing micro brew vs Budweiser, whatever floats your boat or toilet float valve.

Is it me, or is there a bit of a Honda Element-ish look to it?

Land Rover has jumped the shark a bit.

The tag line for the Range Rover Velar is “the avant-garde Range Rover”

Wtf
