High seat positioning was a hallmark of the defender as well
Thanks for all the impressions! If you still have the LC, it would be great to see a profile pic of it and your Grenadier parked right behind.Definitely feels like it on the road. I can't say whether actual ground clearance is higher, but in the driver's seat, looking down on the road and/or looking across at trucks, it's higher for sure.
Certainly not - lots of us here seem to be in that boat.Am I the only guy that would be using the IG as a daily driver?

I found this video a while back, which is helpfulThanks for all the impressions! If you still have the LC, it would be great to see a profile pic of it and your Grenadier parked right behind.
I have a heavily modified 2015 LC200 that I am not getting rid of. It's just too good of a truck to let go.It seems like a lot of people that are buying the IG currently have a 200. I would love to know how many people are keeping their 200? I have a 2010 LX and it's my daily driver and would be swapping that for the IG. Am I the only guy that would be using the IG as a daily driver?
Why does anything automotive labeled 'Made in France' kinda scare me a littleView attachment 7835978
I did a base build. Safari windows, 17" alloy, K02s, weather mats, Leather seats, heated seats, roof bars, tailgate table, hitch
Thanks, but actually that is not the payload sticker. The payload sticker looks like thisView attachment 7835978

60 mph on tight twisty roads is my everyday driving experience and my experience is of a totally grounded vehicle.yikes. did you lower the seat all the way? I'm worried about not feeling grounded when driving twisty roads at 50-60mph. I own a 2014 LC200 btw. stock suspension
Nope. It’s the grocery getting school running city driving interstate tripping off-road adventure everything sauce vehicle for me.It seems like a lot of people that are buying the IG currently have a 200.

Seriously?Thanks, but actually that is not the payload sticker. The payload sticker looks like this
Payload sticker
That's AWESOME!!And we have a negotiated club discount with them as well now.
I’ll post later.
I am coming from LX 570 she is keeping it, and my daily now is a FJ but I will be daily driving the IGIt seems like a lot of people that are buying the IG currently have a 200.

If that is a Payload sticker from a Demo, the sticker is wrong, there is a thread somewhere on here that @Stu_Barnes, posted that have the correct numbers.Seriously?
The total combined payload can not exceed 264kg!
That’s ridiculous
Can’t even load four average (aviation standard) 80kg adults
I’m struggling to believe that sticker
Everyone has an opinion but what matters is what you think. It probably won't be a fit for everyone but you need to determine this for yourself. I would recommend driving one before deciding against it. I was planning to get mine without a test drive but a friend got there's and I drove it today. Wow, what a machine! I am picking up the 26th and I am more excited than ever after driving one.Thanks for the review! Your comments, and others, resonated with me and have us hitting pause (again). Time to put this adventure on the back burner. I’ll be checking this thread on occasion and anxious to hear your updates. Best to you on your trek!
Great point. For myself I’ve driven the grenadier several times; highway, freeway, city streets, off road. Off road was best but at 80k+ its not much of a city or daily driver (height in public parking, turning radius, blind spots…). At 70mph I didn’t feel as comfortable as I wanted…definitely required more attention. To be fair, “More attention” depends on what you’re coming from (1986 LC, g-wagon, ????).Everyone has an opinion but what matters is what you think.
