    Convince me

    Honestly the Nissan is about half the build strength of the Montero. And everyone I've ever known to have an xterra has transmission issues.

    Getting Back To Land Rover (aka Quixotic TD5 Swap)

    Gen 3 debate, 3.5 or 3.8?

    My 06 has 202k miles on it. I would absolutely get a 03-06 limited. You can swap the lsd and lower gears if you want. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gen 3 Montero traction control vs mud -- tire selection?

    You can turn it off with the switch. I think it still leaves on the stability control but in the wet I can slide it all over spinning the tires. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
