I saw this drawing describing a proposed SVX version of the new Discovery with smaller brakes to allow for 18" wheels.

I hadn't thought of that - how much were the pieces to convert the back deck?

I've got a 5 seat HSE with the diesel and the Capability package already on order - however I really wanted the Capability Plus Package which adds the rear locker and ATPC but Land Rover says you have to get the seven seat version for that. I have a seven seat LR3 and in the four years I've...

Passenger side - the entrance to my older Maggiolina roof tent is on the driver side. Plus I like having the awning deployed on the curb side anyway.

For the truck I have a plastic 20" tool box (to help prevent rust) with a couple of tool rolls and a few loose tools that don't easily fit in the rolls (socket rails, hammer, hacksaw) plus a baggie with extra bolts (especially brake caliper bolts - lose one of those on the trail and you have a...

Nice patina - don't even think about painting it.

No Only on the ones with the folding jump seats in the rear. If you want the Discovery with only seating for 5 you can't get the rear locker or All Terrain Progress Control (sort of an off road cruise control that is really cool) you can't order the Capability Plus package. I have a LR3 with...

Actually the rear locker is part of the "Capability Plus" package along with the two speed transfer case, terrain response 2, air suspension and the All Terrain Progress Control but as of right now the Plus package is only available on the seven seat version. The five seat version gets the...

So it sounds like the plans for this device is to continually develop it and provide updates to existing owners as it improves? Can you download standard .GPX files written for other devices? You definitely have my attention. Does it have single button press for marking a waypoint? I saw on one...

Can the TRX also function as a road based GPS? I'm also looking for a better solution and the TRX has caught my attention. I've got a Magellan Roadmate in one of my cars now and its ok for street use but not for off pavement. I had a Lowrance Baja which had a great display but no aftermarket...

I just bought a Monterra a few months ago - a week after I took delivery I found out they were discontinuing the device. One of the main reasons I bought it over the Montana was the hope that updated versions of Android would eventually make it more capable in the long run. I feel somewhat...

I priced out a 2017 Discovery the way I would want it and came up with $65,265 on the build your own sheet. Basically went HSE diesel with all of the off road and towing goodies, better sound system, and the neat trailer assist package for backing up the travel trailer. A similarly equipped...

I'm not sure what he paid but he said it was significantly less than a National Luna and when you factored in the included transit bag was even comparable to an Engel or ARB. David has several older ARB's or Engels and am 80 quart National Luna so he must have been pretty impressed to buy one.

Check out the SnoMaster line of fridge/freezers - I saw them at Overland Expo East and was very impressed with them. One of my friends bought one. The dual compartment BD/C-60D has two compartments of 32L & 24L - either or both compartments can be independently set to be either a freezer or...

Just ordered this collapsible dish pan from Bed Bath and Beyond with a 20% off coupon - 1-1/2" thick when collapsed

Just got my 16" Partner Steel stove today - just the right size for me and it will fit in my wolf type ammo box with enough room left over for all of the pots and pans I need and a couple of 1 lb propane bottles.

I've had four different Eureka tents and would say they are some of the best tents I've ever used - easy to erect, sturdy and durable. My first Eureka tent was an eight man canvas Draw-Tite - it was big enough to park a small car in and packed down to the size of a US Army duffel bag - about 40...

These pictures were taken around 35 years apart

OK Bill -you've thrown down the gauntlet - it's time for a report that will make yours seem tame by comparison. Instead of one border crossing - how about eight? The only question will be which one of my four Land Rovers will the tires go on. Round 4 - stay tuned...

MSR fuel bottle for me and a small plastic funnel in a 1 quart freezer bag.
