    LR3/LR4 Hitch Options for a Bike Rack

    Hey thanks for the reply. Actually current market costs for the factory adapter are around 400 bucks. Crazy. I've been talking with unseenone actually and I think I will get one of his. Decided to try and only cry once.

    LR3/LR4 Hitch Options for a Bike Rack

    Hello, I'm a new owner of a 2006 LR3 and I am looking to add a hitch rack to the truck to tow mountain bikes. I have no plans to do any other towing with it at this time. I have seen a few different options for hitches-- factory OEM option - ~550 Rhino Hitch -- $550 Atlantic British bolt on...

    2001-2002 vs 2003-2006 Gen III Montero

    For fun I thought I'd post a picture of the Retona, since most of you have likely never seen it. It had 2x4, 4H and 4L, but it was just a piece of crap. It got us around and we had some fun adventures, but everything broke on it except for the engine or transmission, and the thing only had...

    2001-2002 vs 2003-2006 Gen III Montero

    Haha that's a great picture! Thanks for the info on the Gen 3 vs the Sport everyone. It's definitely a difficult choice to make. I'm coming from a very utilitarian SUV that you've probably never heard of... a 1999 Kia Retona. Terrible little underpowered ute, but looked pretty good. The...

    Monteros on craigslist

    Thanks for the offer! In a few more weeks the funds should be coming together so I'll keep you in mind. My only question for you, is why haven't you bought that Yellow demon yet?!

    Monteros on craigslist

    I'm in Chicago and I'd probably be able to go 300 miles for one-- maybe a bit more, but it'd have to be pretty good though. Ideally staying within the Chicago-Milwaukee-Indianapolis region.

    Monteros on craigslist

    Yeah, the newest models seem to be pretty expensive. You'd think it's only one or two years newer so it shouldn't make a difference that much, but it seems to.

    Monteros on craigslist

    General street value of Montero's? I'm trying to source myself a Montero Gen III as well. I'm also primarially looking on Craigslist, however the problem is that I'm having a hard time knowing what ballpark to shoot for in terms of price. People seem to price them all over the place, and it...

    2001-2002 vs 2003-2006 Gen III Montero

    I suppose I'm more interested in sleeping in the back. Is the space in the back of the sport much smaller to the extent that it might make sleeping back there more difficult vs. the full size Montero? On a side note, in all my searching for the Montero Limited, I haven't seen if, after you...

    2001-2002 vs 2003-2006 Gen III Montero

    Thanks for the replies. W/respect to the sport, I had sort of assumed that the sport was smaller on the inside as well. Is this not the case? Our last car was a 2002 Mercedes E300 wagon. That thing had a 3rd row we never used, but it was so big that when you folded down the second row, you...

    2001-2002 vs 2003-2006 Gen III Montero

    Hello All, It's my first post, but I wanted to thank everyone for all the information that's been helping me out the last few weeks! I'm in the market for a Montero, have definitely narrowed it down to a Limited, Gen III model. Seems like the body style, offroad capabilities, onroad manners...
