Is The Range Rover Still The King Of Off-Road Luxury SUVs? 

No kidding with this comment 😂

I don’t know anyone who holds a car for 10 years. NOT A SINGLE PERSON.

@@eranmaron909 You are a statistical outlier. I have a 2005 Jaguar, 1989 Ford, 2007 Mazda, and a 2011 Ford. About 90% of the people I know have at least one 10+ year-old car.

Lol now a days hardly anybody keep for 10 years. Lexus is good for used market not for if they owner. wants to keep for 3 or 5 years the first owner Since they lack in tech and luxuriousness than other auto brand and they feel older faster than other auto brands

exactly. We caretake for an older couple and their ranger rover was in the shop more than it was in the garage. This went on for about 6 years before they finally just sold it for pennies on the dollar. It ended up with an electrical draw that couldnt be fixed without some crazy dollar amount to replace the whole harness or something. It was pretty good in the snow and drove well.

Forgot to mention they bought a used 2008? land cruiser after that and they drive it back and forth to Canada. I think it has 350k or more on it now and has been very reliable.

Wow imagine being so boring that reliably makes you a fan of a car😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@Jabber-ig3iwimagine caring why someone else likes a car

@@Jabber-ig3iw am I not allowed to like Toyota because they are proven to be reliable?

Also rock crawl was the wrong mode. Mud and ruts would have done way better

Also get one with rear lock diff

@@olegb8115not needed for that test.

1960s is old

I had chance to test New Defender in offroad. And when I mean offroad it was actually muddy corners and steep hills and just a real offroad. The Defender was absolutely beast.

Shame its hideous

@@jameshogg601 I like that hideous FU grille in people's rearview mirror. Get get the F out of my way.... or I chew you up and crap it out of my quad tailpipes. 🤣🤣

@@jameshogg601naw it ain’t hideous

​@@jameshogg601 who your mom?

Huh?

@@flight2k5That front look like a cheap Chinese EV!!

If you squint, you can see Darth Vader's mask!...but seriously, not many people are spending this kind of money to offroad a luxury SUV...and if they are, they aren't going for any of these 3 vehicles. The real shame here is that there is no button on the dash that makes the car go "whoooo-paaahhh, whoooo-paaahhh, whoooo-paaahhh".

Just get the F-Sport trim if you're not a fan of this grille. It looks much better.

Especially when you consider that design came out in 2012

You beat me to it.

Is not like the new one stands a chance. Range Rover is history. Only people will no knowledge want them.

​@@Offensivebeast of course you like those money pits. You think that design has anything to do with off road performance.

@@manuelpiston obviously if it can keep up with other off road vehicles 😂

How do you know the Lexus won’t have issues ?

@@Natethegreat200c .....because it's a Lexus....

​@functionalfitness1013 they all will have problems lexus is starting to add as much tech as the german and British counterparts so in a couple years It will have more issues than you think. It's not the same tech as the land cruisers of the 90s and early 2000s

But you will hear no one mentioning these things, just praises.

@@stop_lying_broexactly- people go; “wow it’s a reliable Toyota” even though LC’s have a lot of well known flaws and issues.. LC200 steering rack issues - and drinking oil like a drunken sailor…

The older ones are better at it. They get less and less off-road capable with every update.

Totally agree with you I own a 2019 LX and imma keep it forever, also have a 2020 rover sport so far no issues fingers crossed

I have a 2019 LX. It has “weapons grade” 4WD systems!

Toggle switches are killer

Mercedes while not as OR oriented(obviously)would compete with the Lexus for all the other check boxes. Accept long term cost might be higher for license and insurance. Maintenance. But that is not to say it has repair issues. Just that Mercedes going in for regular service intervals will be more expensive than a Lexus. Trust me, I have had Mercedes, they are under rated for long term reliability. Older generations, could get a lemon. But modern day Mercs are just as reliable in my experience. And I have had both Lexus and Mercedes. (and BMW, along with a slew of others lol)

Why is it always a friend 😅

@@LandRoverDS2020What do you mean!? (Sometimes it is also “my father” or “my uncle”..)

@@scandinavia6271 oh ya forget about the relatives, never, my land Rover I had for 3 years .

@@LandRoverDS2020I have had my RR for 8 years - never missed a beat! 🇬🇧

Couldn’t engage 1st gear, start in 2nd.

So you take the worst one just because of looks

@@manuelpiston it definitely isn’t the worst, it does a great job on and off road, while still being a luxury vehicle that’s stylish, always been a Land Rover fan, sure reliability is iffy but I work on my own cars anyways

​@@Offensivebeastit is the worst in this video. And definitely bottom 10 for high end vehicles.

@@manuelpiston spec savers is a place a recommend for you, you’ll thank me!

​@@manuelpistonbet you just watch the roller test then stop to comment lol

Surprisingly? Those GLE’s and the ML before them have been know off roaders. Our 2017 GLE 350 couldn’t get stuck no matter how hard we tried haha.

@@S58985 I mean..it kinda hard to get stuck off-road when it is on a flat bed being pulled into a repair shop.

@@Baebon6259😂😂

@@Baebon6259confusing with Range Rover? Mercedes is decently reliable.

@@bradleyscarreviews yeah...reliably take money from your wallet or reliably visit repair shop.

Nope

No Americans don't deserve it 😂

@@bk27117yep

@@bk27117 I meant instead of the LX600...

A vehicle we want that nobody buys

Overland is coming to LX?

@faheemabbas3965 sorry for the confused. Lexus did say that the trim is coming to other models, but it's not confirmed if it's coming to the LX model.

This one is a long wheelbase with no locking rear diff which is very uncommon in a Range Rover which is why it was slipping so much

@@lbnewell23 I've seen others as well with no locking rear. Heck, even the L322 slips less.

Because he was using rock crawl mode when it should have been Auto or Mud/Ruts. The error is always the nut behind the wheel.

@@lbnewell23was nothing to do with no rear locker. He had it in the wrong mode. If you don’t KNOW (not guess) which mode use Auto.

@@jerrymyahzcat he may well have had it in the wrong mode and it would’ve done better in the correct one but in that circumstance it had everything to do with the rear locker. If it had one both rear tires would’ve turned at identical speeds and because it was a rear tire that had traction it would’ve simply driven off the rollers with no slip at all

That think is hideous

😂😂😂

Why wouldn’t it be? The notion of Toyota somehow being more reliable than everyone else is nonsense.

@@tylermacconnell217 All auto manufacturers need to spend as little as possible + make as much as possible per vehicle (= profit margin). All auto manufacturers spend their money on vehicles differently. Toyota often lags behind other manufacturers for the latest tech and "newer" powertrains, but Toyota has always invested far more into engineering their vehicles for longer, more reliable performance. For example, if you've been waiting for a hybrid power train option in the 4runner, you've been waiting a very long time, but the 4runner has arguable one of the most reliable powertrains in the world. The Landcruiser is known to be engineered to last 20+ years (every single component of the vehicle). The big 3 U.S. auto manufacturers will give you newer and more tech and features, but they don't spend the money on over-engineering like Toyota does. If you buy your cars new and you're only planning on keeping your vehicle for 2-5 years then getting the latest, coolest stuff is fine and you won't likely really notice much difference (although with the only Dodge I owned I spent 3 different days at the dealer service shop getting various electrical and mechanical issues fixed...I've never once been near a service shop in the 2 Toyotas I've owned). I owned a FJ Cruiser for 13 years and when I sold it, it drove exactly as it did the day I took it off the lot (from 9 miles to 97K miles)...every mechanical part, button dial, everything worked exactly as it did when I bought it. I drove it offroad in Utah, many long road trips, commuted to work and back every day, it was absolutely driven...and still felt brand new. So, in short, yes, it is true that Toyota is more reliable (because that's where they spend their money) than other manufacturers...and the resulting data also proves it...just search for "most reliable auto brands" and every single credible source will list Toyota and Lexus in the top 3 every single year (with Ford, Dodge, and Chevy usually being at or very near the bottom).

Dont forget to hand calculate fuel economy and adjust your AFE Bias.

@@ALMX5DP Hand calculated 18.5 to 20.5 relatively in town, Truck says over 21 after 9k miles. Went from Aztec to Denver and back on one tank (obviously at elevation). Truck said 23+, I didn't bother. If I had gotten 17 on that trip I would have been happy.

Overpriced crap for asshole moms 🤣 yup! Gotta add the Tahoe zl1 also

Based on the performance here, I'm guessing admirable. But most certainly would have needed a change to snow tires for that one.

Can't do it. They are filled up already with Wranglers and 4runners.
