LR3 for Overland Travel
New here, just registered...I've been thinking about getting a LR3 for my daily driver and to use it on expedition or overland travel = extended amounts of time spent in remote locations living for weeks on end etc...
So I am wondering if this vehicle is the right choice? Off the bat, I am 6'3 so visibility is an issue as well as sleeping quarters. Do the 2nd row seats fold flat? I am thinking of sleeping in the rig with my K-9 (65lbs) until I get a roof top tent set up.
Which leads me to my second set of issues and thats aftermarket support...I am not really sure who makes what for an LR3, the only things I have seen is an ARB front bull bar and the factory/safari snorkel...I'm looking to add larger tires 31.5" I've read 32's rub? I need a roof rack but dont want that plastic factory one thats offered. A tire carrier and rear bumper would be great too.
Lastly is the daily driving part. I think I've read this right but the suspension can be electronically lifted and lowered? So going off road I can raise it to gain clearance then when I hit the highway I can lower it for better handling?
Let me know what you think, thanks for your time
