flossmoorX535d is on a distinguished road
Paid $500 over invoice on my order. Couldn't find what I was looking for on a lot, so the dealer took one of it's allocated showroom builds and inserted my order in its place. Did this the Tuesday after Easter and it should arrive at the dealer tomorrow or Thursday. Amazed at how quick this went.

I liked the LR3 and didn't have many problems with it. My air suspension never gave me an issue. The HDC feature had been faulting quite a bit lately though. After my last oil change, there was about $2,500 of work maintenance suggested (including new tires) and I knew breaks wouldn't be to far away again either at 66K for mileage. Given the HDC faulting and it's link to the ABS system decided it was time to get out while the getting was still good. Good truck, tried my damndest and couldn't ever get it stuck in the snow. I'll never buy another. They kind of shot themselves in the foot, Tata (sp?) that is when they took over. Got rid of the certified pre-owned program altogether.

This will be our 2nd diesel. Looking forward to much better mileage and a better ride on our longer family trips now.
