While I was broke down at the beach today 2 Disco owners cruised by taking the time to stare but offered no help, one of which was approaching while I was crawling out from under the vehicle. I had the hood up, thought that was a universal sign that there's a issue, guess not. Once I left the beach I made it to a convenience store after the third over heat and I approached a Jeep owner who pulled up and asked if he had some tools, he said today was my lucky day, he had just put them in it. He let me use his tools and assisted me in the work at hand. While we were working on it a third Disco owner pulled up stared, didn't say a word went in the store came out and left. DONT BE THOSE GUYS! If a fellow LR owner appears to be in trouble the least we can do is ask if they need any thing.

 

wow, that sucks too. surly, they were the original owners, that way overpaid, and assume that only a lr tech could do anything for you.

 

Amen.

 

When I drive the jeep most jeepers wave same with harley, I find I am more likely to get the finger or ignored when waving to rover owners so I gave up on that, guess they are the snobs that own a rover as a status symbol

 

Or Maybe, they are too busy staring at that damn scangauge.

 

Prob yuppy mall crawlers that don't know how to change the oil.

 

Winner winner chicken dinner

 

Yeah, probably better that they didn't stop...more of a liability if they don't know what they're doing. Doubt they had even jumper cables in their trucks.

Different story if they were rigged for recovery, then that's just bad form.

That is a shame, though. Glad you got out.

 

When I drive my D3 (or when I had my D2) I don't wave first very often because most disco drivers are soccer moms and I don't want to scare one into calling the cops on me.

When I drive the old beat up defender, I get lots of stares and sometimes the jeep guys wave and I wave back, but I doubt any of the land rover owners even know what it is.

 

we need official " Land Rover Forum" decals to ID ourselves.
