Nikson
Explorer
Pretty basic build - full of love for overland adventures - just as most of us can relate to...
Feel free to ask questions as I post, please edit your replies to exclude large amounts of "other's context", thus it will be an easy thread for everyone to review and weigh in...
I've gone to Lexus LX470 from the Chrysler group mainly, started with various builds of XJs/TJs & the last of my favorite the LJ.
As family grew, along with my adventures & destinations, need for a larger & more comforting vehicle grew as well.
Thus I started searching, and our first choice fell on a Land Rover LR3 HSE (2005) w/HD package.
It was a great vehicle, had few trips on it, but it just never given me that comfort of being a reliable vehicle,
people talking - and the LR3 itself given some minor hiccups - I decided to let it go...
Was very disappointed in the loss of the value over the 9months we owned it... that was another down side to it as well...
Fortunately, timing was right and found a local private seller with exactly what I was looking for
2003 Lexus LX470
142k miles
1 owner (local Oregon) with complete service history from Lexus of Portland.
all great options even night vision
and very reasonably priced at $15k cash, I couldnt pass on...
How it is after the first modification - some proper A/T tires for an overlanding rig.
