Anyone with experience on BFG Trail Terrain vs Goodyear Duratrac R/T? My concern is noise related. My current Duratracs are not noisy (IMO).

I really want the Edition One but the earliest I could stomach it would be Jan 2026, and not sure if it’ll still be available. Maybe I’ll wait for a good CPO offer.

.. I'll just keep my 2022 Defender 90 and my Mercedes AMG GLE 63s coupe . The hype is just so much BS for a Defender that I guarantee will be the star of so many high speed rollovers videos on the hwy

I continue to be unimpressed by the Octa.

Thanks for sharing the video. I like it. Value and preference is of course subjective. You couldn't pay me enough to drive around in an AMG G-wagon.

Interesting that the Grenadier in the video is the limited edition 'Detour' (200) which I think is going to be around $130K (no V8, just better leather and bits).

I wouldn't drive a G Wagon, I have a GLE 63s coupe and Defender 90... The coupe does 0-60 3.2 sec and has all the off road settings of the Defender .

My post wasn't referring to you.....just comparing to something else in the same (even higher) price range.

No worries, the fact that LR wants to produce this truck with such a high center of gravity is just insane..
My 90 has a roll over warning on the sun visor which tells me everything I need to know about the new OCTA ***** model .

Putting high heels and lipstick on a tall defender tells me you're gonna get ucked..
