The discussion was why would someone pay $100K+ for a RR. Apple is the example of people buying high priced products based on image even though the underlying technology is pretty run of the mill. The latest example is the iWatch or whatever it is called. This is really Marketing101. Apple and...

Your fanboi is showing. Under the covers they are using Intel or ARM technology, just like everyone else. Apple is good at packaging and forward thinking consumer products although even that is coming into question. Is Apple now a Gen 2 product company? Apple does a good job but let's not...

Ask Saudi Arabia .......... they have a recommendation.

Off-grid makes sense. On-grid PowerWall will be severely challenged as subsidies disappear. Tesla has 2 or 3 quarters before their cash burn rate forces some hard decisions.

Most articles highlight the economic stupidity of Tesla's Powerwall. It only makes sense off-grid and requires heavy subsidies. How You Get Suckered Jesus, the stupid is strong with people....

Quick google search says parts should be $450 to $550 per side. Add in front/rear O2 sensors for one side and your in the $750 range. Even at LR shop rates $1800 is too high.

A good example of how terminology can muddle the water. The LR3/4 is a traditional ladder frame, to which a monocoque passenger compartment/engine bay "body" is lowered onto it. The body can be removed. Book time is 8.x hours? Body on frame is the original method of vehicle design in which...

And I agree the Discovery Sport is targeted at the Subaru Forester market segment. If they sell even a fraction of the number of Subaru's in Colorado the Discovery Sport will be a roaring success. Thinking every garage has a Subaru.

Part-time 4WD is reliable. My Scout never had driveline issues, other than the front hubs. Full time 4WD with center diff does have advantages over part-time, no center diff, when is comes to tread lightly and highly variable driving conditions. Comparing a Scout II at ~4500lbs / 100" wheelbase...

In summary, the technology equivalent of my 70's Scout. As for vehicle choice consider towing, snow/ice, 4WD trails and a platform to modify. Why immediately limit your capabilities?

I would hope a MAC would be more reliable than a Rover that is constantly pushing the technology envelope. MAC's are based on standard Intel technology and age old Unix. Apples strength is packaging, walled garden apps that move slowly and marketing. Profit margin is derived from selling...

Apple's acquisition of Beat was very telling. Beat product was characterized as "Extraordinarily Bad" by audiophiles. But they are sexy and worn by the cool people! And now they are Apple! First, I'm not comparing Land Rover to Apple or Beat. It is simply a observation on marketing and...

Why do people buy Apple products?

12,500 is high but 95RRC's in decent shape are getting hard to find. It was an "example". I have a 95 LWB. Heating / Cooling is the same as my 98 D1. Fine for Colorado. Pikes Peak Rovers is closed/gone. Sometime in 2014? I'm not surprised.

Looking forward to the effort. Hoping they return to their previous work, similar to the Great Divide Edition (89/90) and the Camel Trophy series. So, has the Expedition Portal LR4 been kidnapped by Land Rover?

If it would work, take it to JC's and pay the cost of an inspection.

Relative to Woodland Park, Boulder is local. Nothing like touching, inspecting and driving the prospective vehicle.

A little pricey but as always, you get what you pay for. Go cheap and over time you probably have spent the $$$ Rare 1995 Range Rover Classic LWB - $12500 (Boulder) and video of truck. Apparently from Yuma, AZ 1995 Range Rover Classic LWB for sale

Land Rover gives Discovery Sport new Ingenium diesel power [w/videos] "....JLR has just announced that the new Ingenium diesel engines will be offered in the Discovery Sport – in some markets, anyway. The seven-seat off-roader will be offered with the 2.0-liter diesel four, mated to...

Haven't seen the fine print, only the following article: Price comparison: Google's Project Fi versus Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile It's cheaper, but the difference may not be worth switching over In addition to having to buy a Google phone: But there are limits to what Project Fi can...
