really nice. that's the next truck for me too, since we can't get the Defender Tdi here...

There's a guy here on CL who claims he gets 25 mpg.

Is that possible?

Not sure yet. It will be fun to test it out for a few months though. :smiley_drive:

Chris is currently testing it for an article in expeditionswest.com and I don't think he is too keen on handing over the keys.

Is that ARB bumper custome painted? Or there is an option to get it in white?? If I can get it in white the chance of it accepted by wife is much better!:confused:

Must be custom. ARB gives you only two choices. Clean black or dirty black.

Ask him for the receipts? Maybe he always drove under 60MPH? My V6 auto 5-speed got maybe 21 MPG on long steady drives at 65 MPH
