    Swapping toyota reliability for land rover is a huge decision to make..land rover is comfy for both wife and baby,but hopefully its not gonna left them stranded on the middle or side of the road because of breakdown 🤘🏻 congratulation Mr&Mrs Ben plus baby

    Nice choice, for the year or two you keep it, it should be just fine. The Defender is way bigger in real life than in pictures/video, that’s one thing I notice every time I see one.

    Very Nice!! Great choice on the color. Defenders are cool straight from the dealer - no mods required. 4Runners are cool after being modded, straight from the factory - not so much. Looking forward to long term reviews 🚙 👍

    What a great SUV, rugged and luxurious like Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, but even moreso in some ways like the refrigerated compartment. More rugged than the Outlander, for sure.

    Because you never hold on to a vehicle for more than a year, this isn't a terrible vehicle for you. If you held on to it for more than a year, you would get to see the beautiful English vehicle experience. In the bright side, they get free parking in the repair lot.

    Long time Cruiser/Toyota guy, but I did a stint with a 5 speed Discovery overland rig back in the day and it was great. More enjoyable and better riding than my Land Cruisers. Thinking about getting a 4 Runner for the wife’s daily and a secondary backcountry rig as I agree, I think the current 4Runner is the best built, most long lasting thing available….. BUT, the base 110 in the coil spring suspension is pretty tempting. You think the second row can fit three kids comfortably? Curious if the ride quality of the coil spring version, I have an aversion to LR air suspension. Is there a reliability difference between the 4 and 6? I must have missed that.

    How’s that Land Rover Defender holding up now? 😂 I bet it went to a shop at least once’s already for few issues and it has probably less then 1000 miles. Everyone I know and every defender that I seen being sold from my Land Rover dealership went back to the shop within 2-3 weeks of us selling them. Especially P400 models with inline 6cyl also they all get major electrical and digital clutches constantly and you can’t fix it permanently only temporary and it comes back again. Good luck with it Ben soon enough you will be kicking yourself in the head for selling your extremely reliable 4Runner TRD Pro and getting this piece of crap. And you will definitely regret getting it when you will get tired of it and believe me you will extremely soon you will also cry once you get your trade value on it.
