My new tow vehicle
 
I've wanted one for a while.. hemed and hawed over it... figured what the hell, you only live once..:head: (and besides, I'm worth it).

It's a 2002 with a 4.5L Aluminum V8, 95,400 miles on it. Automatic trans. Rated towing capacity is 5500lbs. Factory equipped Class 3 tow hitch. 15 MPG AWD w/a low range for sticky stuff. All leather seats, 2 sun roofs, front and rear A/C, power everything. PO only used Syntec oil in it from day one. Had all receipts, serviced every 3000 miles. Brakes were done 1700 miles ago. Disk brakes all around. CarFax came back negative. All in all a very nice vehicle for the money. It's a Land Rover.. very well made, tough truck...but repairs will be costly if/when needed. I know it, and that's what the heming and hawing was about.

(It's a trade off.. my Jeep Cherokee got hit 2 weeks ago by an idiot!!!! :cen: crossing over a double solid yellow line making an illegal left turn and hitting my vehicle in the slow lane of oncoming traffic.:bat: My damage was $2700 round numbers. So I could take that money and fix my Jeep (Left front fender, bumper, lights, etc.) ..or I could use the money towards a different vehicle. I decided to upgrade. I've fixed a large amount of the damage to the Jeep already, and I know that with winter coming on I can sell the Jeep easy for 2 grand as is....It's drivable and I'm using it for work everyday. So that's the plan. Meanwhile I get to ride in this totally awesome, super deluxe truck. Ahhhh...life is good. ) :beer:



(and besides, I think the V will look great behind it) :love:

WOW! Looks like new. Somebody really took good care of it. Congrats!

OK Destroyer here's the plan, you hook up your V to the new chariot, and you drive me and RW down to Carolina for the rendezvous.
We will sip tea with our pinky finger pointed up the whole way down and relax in that leather living room of a vehicle you got there.
Make all them southern boys green with envy!
