So the reliability concerns are really a matter of poor design? I was under the impression that the design was solid, just the execution was sub standard. I guess that really blows a hole in my theory. I have somewhere around $15,000 in my bronco now and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it to...

Jason, that is exactly what I was talking about. I have taken this approach with trucks, 4 wheelers, motorcycles and even a lawn mower. This strategy has always served me well in every area except one; resale. It only really seems like a viable approach if you intend to keep the vehicle and...

Well, lets say that you find a Disco II with the HSE package with a perfect body and interior, which seems like an easy enough proposition. Worst case scenario, you end up with ten thousand in the purchase price. If you put $5,000 in prophylactic maintenance, would that not give you enough...

I messed up posting the Bronco pic, so I'll try again.

I bought this Bronco with full intentions of spending much more than the purchase price to get it squared away. Now, I am thinking about a Discovery II and I am just intrigued by the number of complaints I find on the forums. It seems like all the problems with Discos are well known and easy...

Land Rovers obviously have the performance and heritage that everyone is looking for in an expedition vehicle. The big knock on US models is the reliability. What if one were to buy, say, a well maintained Discovery II for $7-10,000 with the intention of heading off all the well known problems...

I understand that the low mounts aren't necessarily going to give me a lot of trouble from a totally practical point of view, but from a theoretical view, I have a hard time understanding why they are designed that way on certain axles and not others. I have looked at numerous undercarriages...

I have a 2004 extended cab, 4wd, Silverado. I am trying to decided whether to keep this truck to use as a learning platform or just go ahead and make the investment and buy a new truck that is exactly what I like. I have been able to use the search function to answer all but one question I...
