    Beautiful. What takes you to that area, specifically (other than the beauty, of course)?

    @GrateEggspectations - @Stormbringer will provide the specifics but he was the Queen's appropriate surrogate for this past Friday's zoom/speakeasy session.  I get running submerged and undected but... B)

    @GrateEggspectations @Canugghead it’s another holiday and migration research trip 😉. Also doing astrophotography this trip. The lack of light at night here is great and the core of the galaxy should be visible later this week.

    Honest question fish, was the Range Rover purchase like a dream car thing? I love the look of them but would never purchase any Land Rover product. If I was going to buy an older luxury 4x4 it would be a Toyota land cruiser or Lexus variant.

    i looked at alot of second hand vehicles when searching, for the money and the miles this one topped the list. owned by a guy in cambridge, garaged, and most of the mileage was back and forth between boston and florida and to dude ranches in new york. you need to really look over any toyota products up here closely, with the salt we put down in winter the frame is gone in 8 to 10 years. this thing really drives nice though, 4x4 modes are the best ive iver used in deep mud, tyres are close to 70k miles right now and would be good for another 30k or more if they didnt dry rot so quickly (3.5 years and the dry rot is really bad) kumho tyres. so far its been brakes, a 4 foot brake line, and the third tail light replaced. theres a small vibration at 75 which could be those tyres or could be a ball joint but that would be expected anyways with any car at this mileage.

    never buy a new range rover, the value sinks like a brick

    as a note with the toyota trucks, i did find a toyota last month to replace my dads old toyota ( 300,000 miles on it), his "new" one has 71000 with a new frame upgrade, frame replacement is free by toyota but somehow the bill adds up to 3k when you replace all the other stuff that gets destroyed replacing the frame.

    I like my Jeep, all those lights and warnings are expected.  Nobody expects you to fix them on a Jeep.  The Range Rover has an expectation that is should be fixed.

    my pet peeves with the rover, my major complaints.  drink holder is not refrigerated and or heated depending on what im drinking.  wiper blades are heated but should lift off the glass when parked at temps below 40f.  why are there no dog settings in the back seat for seat air conditioning and seat heating, why is it not automatic when my poor dog sits back there.  see.....three bad reviews for a range rover right there

    been driving for 42 years, 4 years ago i bought my first vehicle with AC.....its nice but no game changer. your car might have a heater strip under the wipers in the glass, alot of newer vehicles just have it built in now and most would never notice it

    Doesn't your driver warm up your car and prep it for the drive?

    Sounds like a scam.  I would wait for check to be back in your hand.  Their address screw up is not your issue, no sense in putting yourself at risk.  Make sure everything is 100% above board before you send anybody more money.

    just seems like the way things are done, invoiced from VA,  receivables in illinois, overdue receivables is in NC. nobody answers the damn phone, ask a question and they send me their memo from 2014, i started business with them in 2022. too easy to hide behind email.
