LOL. Clearly a Quest person. Your approach is very telling. No proof in those pics. They don’t show anything real. Prove your build. No one’s that stupid pal.

My experience couldn't have gone smoother, plus, Jason was super happy to give discounts for cash payments, and encouraged me to find my own parts (roof lights, high lift jack, etc) so i wouldn't incur any of his shops charges on sourcing them. He also steered me away from some VERY expensive build options, that a dishonest shop would have pushed me towards.
its interesting that you claim to be a new LR enthusiast in your post yet you seem to know enough to say that it seems that most people wanted a $20k rig for $7k and done fast and thats its “Lofty goals, versus the harsh reality of Land Rover ownership costs get people salty”. What kind of new
LR enthusiast says that or even knows that? Its so clear that this was type by someone who owns this business. Later on your non confrontational posts are telling after you posted something like this that is so direct. You are talking rebuild numbers like you know LRs and arent a new enthusiast... what experience do you have if you are a new enthusiast but others dont understand the “harsh reality of Land Rover ownership costs get people salty.” Sorry you just aren’t very bright. Then posting pics from inside
of Quest. 🤦‍♂️

what is laughable if your individual experience is
made up. A new LR enthusiast who feels like
he got a good deal on his repairs... what do you actually know? Thats laughable.

Someone out there owns questoffroad4x4.com and is going to post all of the proof of his scams from over 10 victims. it will make it nice and easy to expose his garbage and inform consumers. Jason has been known to curse out customers and
get aggressive on the phone. No one in his town has anything good to say about him. Sucks to suck

And the really notable omission from that description? That it has a rebuilt engine. Someone who's really happy with a rebuild -- recent or not -- isn't going to leave that out.

A minor point but how do you have an old man ENU (sic) 3" lift with Terrafirma springs and shocks?

Very true.
But at least they did take the effort to point out the cheap $2 ebay toggle switches.

6 Custom wired Hella lights in the front, 2 LED lights in the rear, attached to custom mounted interior "flip and toggle" switches.

This truck has been floating around on Craigslist for a while.

https://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/ct...091367173.html

Never heard of Quest off road until I saw it mentioned in link above.
