    Good call, on both counts. That's Pleasant Valley in Joshua Tree National Park. It's been a slice T4R.org

    I actually bought it for the seating space. My Trail didn't have a third row, and I found the third rows in the Ltd.s too tight. This fits my family like a glove...and it rocks offroad.

    FYI: "topped off" means I didn't fill the tank, I just added enough to fill it to the top. It required 3.918 gallons to do so. I travelled 79 miles between the tank being full and it requiring 3.918 gallons to be full again. I don't know another way to explain it.

    Correction, I just topped off. Hand calculated 20.16 mpg over 74 miles and 5 city miles. The best I ever calculated on the Trail was 16.67 mpg, all hwy.

    Thanks, I'm real happy with how this all turned out. As much as I loved my Trail, this is a much better solution for a family of five. The best part? I got 21 mpg highway yesterday, which beats the best I got with the pretty much stock Trail by 3mpg!!! That's after lift and tires and comes with...

    Am I asking too much?

    Get over yourself and the royal "us". Nobody is trying to convince anyone of anything. I'm simply sharing information (what this website and the Internet is designed to do), and asking for rational, impartial advice (what most T4R.org members are known to be able to impart). I'm aware that I may...

    I took out the bits about removing add-ons per your advice. I wasn't sure it was a good idea in the first place. I think I'll let the asking price ride for a bit and see what happens. As for the '11 vs. '12, I bought it in 2012 so the warranty is good for another 18 months or 25K miles. But...

    Am I asking too much?

    I agree and regret not taking the $34K. It was actually the wife who came out to look at it and made the offer. The guy wanted it right out of the ad. Lesson learned about the add-ons, however. I'm thinking of taking off the rock sliders and weathertechs and just posting them on craigslist, then...

    Am I asking too much?

    Looking to make switch to a Land Cruiser. Link below goes (I hope) to my Autotrader ad. Am I asking too much? I had an offer for 34K but turned it down. Made a counter offer the next day of 35.2 with rocksliders or 34.7 without. His wife changed her mind by then and they're going with a 2wd 2013...

    What makes for a squirrelly trailer?

    Hey hearno, I can see you're new here but, FYI, people are pretty welcoming, helpful, and friendly in this section. Save your nonsense for the Klan meeting.

    what to consider when buying...

    That's possibly true. If you check out the Rover forums, however, you'll find people who've owned these things without complaint. And they are in a class of their own - extremely capable off road right out of the box, amazing fit-and-finish, real-life adults can actually sit in the 3rd row...
