Are you ready for anything? NO.  Because you don't have this truck.  If you're man enough for it, this truck is a zombie killing off-road monster. 

Pound for pound, and dollar for dollar, there is no better truck on the market to meet YOUR needs.  Designed to excel in the Amazon, the Sahara, The mountains, or the Outback, This truck was built from the ground up to tackle anything,

Equipped With a Safari guard steel front bumper made of plate steel forged in the fires of Mt doom, This thing has a winch mount, deflector plate, and a brush guard for when you need to smash through the woods, or the traffic in a hurry.

Rock sliders for when the almost 18" of side clearance isn't enough.

Oversized off road tires ensure traction in even the harshest mud bogs or snow covered mountainsides.

Raised on heavy duty lifted suspension, there's hardly an obstacle on the planet you won'e be ready to tackle.

A Steel roof rack fit for the toughest of men.  What do you need a epic roof rack for? if you're asking that question, you're not man enough for this car
put your gear on top. put your boat on top. put TWO couches on top, Camp on top.  And, a ladder to access all that.

Does it have four wheel drive?  It ONLY has four wheel drive.  Four different settings of it.

Class IV trailer hitch to haul your tractor through the backwoods, and a winch mount so you can pull all those other wimpy cars on the road out of the snow and mud when they get stuck.

With a factory jump seat installed in back, this truck seats 6, So you're ready to take your whole assault team on your next mission.

How many head lights does it have? 2? 4? 6? no.  EIGHT.  So you're ready to light up the night.  Perfect for blazing trails through the middle of nowhere, or scaring off your enemies, like zombies,  or just leave them on so you can work late into the night.  

Did you forget to turn all those lights off last night? Battery dead in the morning? No big deal, the truck's got an extra.  With the flip of a switch, you can jump yourself.

Whether i was tearing up a field, blasting through mud bogs, pulling E-350 Vans out of ditches or snow,  This truck was ready.  Whether I was hauling a hundred boards of lumber, camping in the backwoods or hauling a trailer,  This truck can handle it.  I've driven it through feet solid of snow and seen 3 axle municipal snow plow vehicles stuck and i kept going.  If it can be done, this truck can do it.  Loyal to me for 10 years, this Beast of a machine never left me stranded.

And with just a little work, this tank is ready for anything.
Now for the bad:
A/C needs a recharge, Steering Stabilizer needs to be replaced (included) Rust/hole in jamb at rear doors, Cruise control vacuum needs leak repaired, Power steering leaks, Rear windows open intermittently, Computer faults cause dash (engine) lights, Does not pass cook county emissions test. Antilock sensors failing, Handbrake sensor failing. Folding seats lock up occasionally.

As a bonus:
I will include all the spare parts I've accumulated over 10 years of land rover ownership including an extra alternator, differential, radio, stabilizer bar, steering dampener, Air Filter housing, relays, spare tire cover, and more.

Ferrari exec to lead Jaguar North America

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Jaguar has announced that Jeff Curry will be serving as the brand's new North American vice president, effective August 13. The move is a coup for Jag, which lured Curry away from his previous posting as VP of marketing for Ferrari North America, and is further evidence of just how strong Jaguar's comeback has gotten.
Curry has spent over 20 years in the auto industry, and has worked with Audi, SiriusXM and Land Rover, where he made his start in the industry. His primary responsibilities with Jaguar will cover marketing communications, customer relationship management, and product planning.
Jaguar Land Rover's North American president, Andy Goss, heaped praise on the brand's newest addition saying, "Jeff brings with him extensive automotive and luxury marketing experience, critical expertise in leading-edge technologies and a personal passion for automobiles."

Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

Jaguar and Land Rover are set to merge their sales facilities, according to Inside Line. Jaguar Land Rover North America President Andy Gross says 45 percent of Jaguar owners also have an SUV in their stable, so it makes sense to give customers as much exposure to the cat's high-riding cousins and possible. The number of overall outlets will remain the same, and the brands will reportedly remain separate on the showroom floor, however.
So far, just one dealer has made the move to combine under the roof of one 68,000 square-foot facility in Paramus, New Jersey (above), though a further 20 are ready to make the shift and become Jaguar Land Rover outlets. Gross believes the shift is necessary so that his company's dealer network will accurately reflect the company's products. We'll see how cozy the brands are when Jaguar starts rolling out its own SUVs in a few years.
