My wife and I have enjoyed our defenders so much we have two now. Picked her up a 2023 XD in Fuji yesterday. She was so happy when she got home and her RRS was replaced.






I think my YW looks better and has more grrrrrr but she don’t care about that.

 

Right with you...my wife "stole" my Defender and gave me her X5 to drive instead. I didn't like the X5 either so I had to order a second Defender.

 

Sort of the same here. Wife decided she was tired of the minivan scene and said she wanted a Defender. So off we went to get one. Ended up with a 130. We drove it on a 2000 mile road trip a week after buying and when we got home I sold my truck and bought a 110.

 

^ Very nice! Defender is so comfortable on longer road trips. Between ski trips and college rowing regattas we put over 10K miles on ours in 3 months.

 

I agree on the comfort. The whole family agreed the Defender was a very different and better ride than the Sienna we replaced. We put 25-30K miles per year on the wife’s car. Three weeks in and she already has 3500 on it.

 

The defender rides as good or better than any vehicle I have owned.
