Anyone 'daily' or do a lot of miles in a Grenadier?

I've done 19,000 miles in mine now, daily driving and a couple of 2000 mile trips, I like it, it's comfortable and the diesel is ok for economy if you stay under 60. cruising at 80 burns a fair bit of fuel. It's fantastic for towing. Definitely a keeper.

I am currently driving a 2013 200 with BFG tires on steel wheels as a daily driver. Any thoughts on how the Grenadier does on the highway at 80 mph. Reality is that I end up doing that quite a bit. I briefly test drove one and not sure on the noise and power level at those speeds in comparison. Thanks.

It's fantastic. It's a brand new vehicle with a BMW turbocharged 6 and an 8 speed gearbox.

A close friend of mine just did a few thousand miles towing a 3500# TT and kept the cruise on 78 mph on the highway. I thought that was insane but he says he did it and he's not really one to exaggerate.

I have 6,000 miles on mine. It’s fine on the freeway, but it was designed as an overland or offroad vehicle and that is where it shines.
