We got to see the Alu-Cab Grenadier conversion at the Mule where it was between Overland shows. Saw how to open it up and sat up on the bed. Convinced us to put our deposit down, now trying to decide how to configure living quarters once the rear seat is removed.

Have had no transfer case issues with our 958 six cyl diesel.

A North American diesel is not an option unless modified to accept ROW diesel and Add-Blue delete. Also depends on what type rally is being run - for example high speed is not required for TSDs. - Consider purchasing a ROW diesel over there first. For NA Cayenne's a well cared for and sorted...

Tangential post, Question, how long can potable 'city' water remain useful for drinking? Yes boiling is an option but curious what the straight out of the can shelf life is. Currently store ours in a couple of blue 20L Sceptre's. We are preping for much longer trips than we have been taking. -...

Just over 1k miles on our Trialmaster. Agree with what @KitCamper posted above. This does not drive like our 911 nor the 958! It was definitely built with their motto in mind 'Purpose Built' - We purchased our petrol Grenadier to go where our 958 diesel can not as ULSD fuel is not available...

Principle reason for getting the IG is to explore Central & South America where ULSD is not available. Cayenne diesels got our attention after Jan Kalmar and two friends set the world speed record driving from Nord Cape Norway to Cape Town SA in less than nine days. He took his many other places...

From the Boise IG dealership - Did not know there are 110 plugs in the tailgate: .

- Lift kit never needed or wanted - 'Otis' being used to teach an off-road driving class at BCOR Totally stock with only body protection and camping gear added 11 years and 144k principally off-road miles with many more adventures ahead

Two Scepter 20l for water attached to our swing arm spare tire carrier For long trips also carry two 4 gallon containers with a water purification kit .

138k principally off-road miles - Overlanding & endurance rally Tire swing-out with two 20l Scepter cans, Trash-a-Roo, and additional gear as needed Photo from doing the WABDR from Oregon to Canada. We keep rotating our KO2s for three season and Hakkapeliitta's for snow & ice racing.

As I currently have way to many accounts to keep up with and would rather be outside on adventures myself, feel free to post this link: https://rennlist.com/forums/cayenne-955-957-2003-2010/968788-meet-otis.html

Two Scepter 20L water containers mounted to our swing out have worked for us these past 138k principally off-road miles. For longer trips have brought along 2 four gallon jugs stored inside. Note: you can order Scepter products directly from Scepter vs giving Amazon non-value added profit. ...

Really like your marine pump solution better than the electric ones What brand and part number did y'all use?

Back to topic, Next month we are signed up to drive an IG at Rowher Flat OVP / Santa Clarita Has anyone driven there & what was it like?

. "all those features / upgrades in the Petrol" were available when new, rarely ordered on a base model or diesel . Yes it is popular right now to add lift kits - very difficult and expensive to add air suspension due to all of the multiple computers and software involved. Not a fan of the lift...

. Very nice for around town. This one as a base model low torque six banger, big no with all the issues with a pano roof, less range, and w/o air suspension = not enough ground clearance. In our and others opinion the diesel with air suspension we have is a unicorn. Would not part with it...

. Intend to first take a few extended NA trips of 7k to 10k miles each. This will also enable us to fit out our IG a lot easier than remotely. Several BDRs some of which we have already done, TAT one way then TCT return. Would exclude Tuktoyaktuk as we have already been there as part of a 5,500...

Are you coming to the Northwest Overland Rally Jun 15-18, 2023 – Plain, WA - have attended for 8 years, many which they have had us lead trail runs. This is truly a family friendly overland event not a rock climbing / crawling event. Also near-by is the WABDR which we have done. Good trip would...

. Yes a petrol Cayenne could be an answer but, the new ones are more oriented to in town driving vs overland. Another reason for a fresh new vehicle is that our current has seen a lot of miles. For the very long trips envisioned we would prefer a fresher rig with similar towing capabilities...

Why we have pre-ordered a Grenadier, Spent over 200k miles off-roading our Miti Montero. Next 10 years & 137k principally off-road miles, we have taken our 958 Cayenne diesel to more places than most thought possible. It meets most of our overland needs with one big exception the requirement for...
