Default NO hazing right?


New disco 1 owner from Denver Colorado. Just picked it up from a work friend. Its having a few problems and doesn’t have time to worry about that himself so boom. Loving this thing in the snow. I’m now one of the jerks flying by all the small cars. Looking forward to the summer and maybe some off roading.

No doubt about the supremeness in the snow!

Plus, owning a rover is both a hobby and a passtime: there is always something to fix or tweak, but it will (almost) always get you there or back.

I'm new to the forum, too, but Welcome!

I’ll check that out, good to know there is some local clubs to show me the ropes. I’m totally new to 4 x 4 action, but have been a car guy for a long time. All of my cars have been small cars, 3 fiero’s, prelude, integra, tc, 3 mr2’s ya I think that’s it. Looking forward to curbs not holding me back, stupid parking lots.

Just remember that on icy snowy roads it will slide out of control just like any other vehicle will. So keep flying by all those cars and you will be another one of those idiots that crashes because he can't stop, just like everybody else on the road.

Drive it like an idiot thinking you are invincable because you are in a Land Rover and you will destroy it before long. Learn the right way to handle it and you can enjoy it for a longtime.

Remember the motto: " As slow as possible, as fast as necessary" especially off-roading. Take a look at UTube and see how badly so many idiots destroy a perfectly good Land Rover because they think they are Superman behind the wheel.

Good Luck and Best Wishes.
