This will be interesting to see how it actually performs off-road if they decide to produce it. There is a good bit of rear overhang, but it would still probably do OK. I'd assume it will have more of Bronco sport style "AWD" system, though it could still be decent - I know the Defender isn't...
They're definitely trying to copy the Defender, including parts of the interior (though they can keep that hideous rear). That said, the photoshop in this first photo is funny to me, because while the Defender actually made it up there, the comparatively low ground clearance of the Hyundai (8.2...
TFL ruined TFL Offroad for me when they created this obvious click bait. I assume it's that, because I'm not sure who, in reality, would be dumb enough to air down a tire that normally runs at 65psi because it lacks sidewall rigidity (in exchange for being lighter and getting better MPG).
It's...
Are you being serious? Are you some sort of wiring genius who can identify every single wire in a torched Bronco?
Most of the random wires you're seeing were probably covered in a wire loom that burned / melted off, and are factory-installed. Other wires that just seem to be laying around...
That article is not very clear. From their own press release:
"Jaguar and Land Rover will offer pure electric power, nameplate by nameplate, by 2030. By this time, in addition to 100% of Jaguar sales, it is anticipated that around 60% of Land Rovers sold will be equipped with zero tailpipe...
Exactly this. All that damage can happen in the few moments between the lugs / studs letting go and the wheel departing the vehicle.
As far as the "attempted theft" theory, I assume nobody has seen how wheel theft occurs. It's a few people or small group, they jack up the car, wedge something...
I hate to say this because a lot of people suggest it way too soon and for crazy small things, but you might want to chat with a lawyer to at least see what your options are and chances of different outcomes. I totally get the hesitation about taking it back, and the initial denial doesn't sit...
This is all figured up by marketing people to maximize profits. You make up a package that is close to what someone wants, and then offer what would be even MORE popular on another trim higher that comes with even more features and a higher profit margin.
Look how they limit lux to certain...
Excuse me, I've had no reliability issues with my Defender in 18 months of on and off-road, plus a long road trip, too (and yes, real off-road). Fewer recalls than the Bronco, too (just 1 for an EGR replacement). :cool::p It was a touch more than my Badlands build, and maintenance is looking to...
He's in Northern Virginia, so the humidity is even worse (I can say from experience). I don't have soft top experience, but with the humidity and occasional large temperature swings I wonder if moisture could be condensing on the interior sometimes? Hard tops don't do this but maybe soft tops...
There are serious concerns about an auto loan "bubble" popping. Lots of people doing dumb things - trading in cars they owe money on and financing that debt into a new vehicle purchase, really long terms (as mentioned), and late payments have been increasing since at least mid-last year. Plenty...
I'm not 100% on the fog lights thing (though logically it makes sense to not have high-beams and fog lights on since the high beams would blind you in fog - I know, lots of people aren't using fog lights just for fog...), but the rear camera thing isn't mandated by law. A software update enabled...
