I don't know how they have any long term resale data on LR3's. it must just be for last year? Land Rovers have HORRIBLE quality. JD power ranks them 2nd to last just above some korean mfg.

Yeah, My Range Rover has a disgusting money factor, i almost screamed

Thats One Shitty Money Factor :P

WOW! After 3 years, you're only about $15k of paying off the whole MSRP if you had purchased the car in the first place...but instead, you get to walk away with nothing to show for your $81.5k in payments? That sounds like one crappy deal?
