I am - I just wish the pandemic would stop causing delays to check one out

Thanks! I've been reading yours over time as well as checking out 4x4wire, and on MMOC Facebook group. Seems like a lot of the gen2 montero swaps in as well, and can get an air locker rear if I find an SR.

so on Friday, I picked up this Raider for a song ( $2,000 ). Rare V6 5spd. I'll say this, I've lurked this forum for a long time wanting to get into something off road capable, and I've owned Starions in the past, so the previous weekend I helped a friend pick up a 5spd Raider with a G54B (2.6L...

Yup! I believe you're right. Also the stepped up rear roof line is reminiscent of the old Disco II's - now they just need to come in a sandglow color... how to instigate 101

Thoughts on it? Seems like the Badlands trim still have a lot going for it - there's videos of them doing Moab and Hells Gate without much trouble.

For a second I thought I saw you at Halcyon on Friday but realized it doesnt have a snorkel

Those are gorgeous photos

The 2021 Tahoe Z71's are already out at the dealership, and the Yukon AT4's are coming out shortly. Omitting the departure angle, whats everyone thoughts on it? I think its interesting they did away with solid axles, but also give it an air suspension + magnetic ride to where it can lift itself...

There's one for sale in VA - any, trying to judge the merits or disadvantage of purchasing the older G500. https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/810413985/overview/?aff=atempest&utm_source=AutoTempest&utm_medium=TRP&utm_campaign=atempest

Hm, that is something to definitely consider. I've also heard that it might not matter as long as you do the delete and the higher sulphur diesel would be better due to lubrication. Of course there's always the 6.2L, or the newer 7.3L gasser as well. There's of course alternatives too -...

US-based diesels are now designed to burn ultra-low sulphur. From what I've read is, if you're towing a 5th wheel, doing into Mexico etc you can be fine with their low sulphur diesel, but without the load you'll have issues. Or, the fix is to just delete all the emissions equipment. Can anyone...

Yeah, I mean the only thing I can see where the "underpowered" could come into play is weight and obstacles - however I feel like that's more torque and setup than anything. The 2-4 gears is a wash to me. I mean, it's great to me if it means increase fuel efficiency as a daily driver, as long...

Yeah, I was looking at the Z71 Considering I'm also looking at a 200 Series Land Cruiser/LX570, and the GX460s, its far cheaper lol How is it a dog? outside of the 5.3l v8 is sub 400hp

Been eyeing this generation as a 80% daily/kid hauler, 20% mild overland ( being in GA there isn't as much as out west ) I havent found much information one way or another, but it seems they come with some nice goodies from the factory. Feedback is appreciated!

So, one of the moderators ( I believe ) has a nicely built Excursion https://expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/expos-2000-7-3-excursion-build.162674/page-29 31 pages to peruse https://expeditionportal.com/the-expedition-portal-diesel-excursion-wrap-up/

I too am a MGS fan :) digging the build!

At this point I just want to see these legal in the US w/modern V6 ( i.e. the pentastar that's stupidly reliable )

Ah, I must have missed that. Looks like for some, you have to outfit the HSE Luxury package to get the two speed transfer box.

I think the Discovery is the only one that has that. I don't think the Range Rover has one ( although now they have some awesome downhill descent control systems, and crawl systems )

They apparently have better departure angles or near the same as the previous ones have had. Now in regards to the aftermarket, that's a bit different
