What are you planning to use the truck for?
They are few and far between and from what I have heard they are good trucks.
Have you had this sort of vehicle before?
Mike

My neighbor has one and has had some issues with his. The most major was it throwing faulty codes. I believe on one occasion, he was a couple hundred miles away from home and had to have it towed to a LR dealer, which gave him a minivan to drive the rest of the way while they fixed it. He didn't get it back for a couple of weeks after he got back home. They shipped it back here to NC on a flatbed. Very uncool for a vehicle with only a couple hundred miles on it.

This isn't to shed a bad light on the RRS, but you have to understand it's still a brand new vehicle and they may not have worked all the bugs out of it yet. Kind of like the first year of the LR3. The newer model years of the LR3 have been much more reliable.

Go with what your heart desires. Every vehicle has it's own personality and because they are mechanical & electrical, eventually some component will wear out or break down.

Those have been one of our biggest sellers here in Alberta - can't get them in fast enough. Ditto the comments on fault codes - early ones needed a flash reprogram but no faults lately. Tire wear is an issue and most of our customers have changed them out asap - not a fault of LR but just a consequence of weight and speed

Good all round vehicle - all I need to do now is find a spare $130 thou
