    Hello everyone, It's been a while since I have started a new project vehicle. Ever since I switched from a JK to a G Wagon it's been a little less aggressive of a build list. But after a couple years of a modern G Wagon minimalism I have to say I miss being able to reach my more challenging...

    Is 2017 the last W463?

    I have to admit that the reason I waited almost a year for the 2017 over the 2016 was because of the rumored 2018 update on the G-Wagen. From the spy shots, it's clearly getting softened up, widened, lowered, etc... This is all likely due to emission standards, pedestrian impact, cost, etc...

    Hey guys, I am at 800 miles on my new 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. I have run Red Line 5-30 in my past Land Rover Defender which had flat tappet style engines with great results. Transitioning to this much more modern 3.6 penstar V6 I am wondering what synthetic oil I should use. I...

    Sold my NAS Defender 110 for a 2014 Jeep Rubicon

    Today I sold my prized fully restored NAS Defender 110. After a decade of pure Land Rover enthusiasm I decided to hang up the hat with Land Rover. You would think the final blow was some major mechanical let down high up in a remote mountain when I needed to depend on her the most. Reality is...
