It spends most of its time at under 2krpm, gets to maybe 2.5krpm in the highway and it never feels taxed. In passing, it just drops one gear and the job is done smoothly. If you need to punch it, it is pretty quick for how heavy it is. There really is nothing out there I would consider replacing it with. Ours is probably worth a surprising amount to the right buyer (~$25k? - here's a comp).



If a GLS cost half as much and my wife were willing to got to the back garage to get it to use it, maybe. But since neither will happen, then no.


Yeah they do seem to hold their value well. Plus they just have a classic elegant yet rugged look. I think comparable Range Rover sports are much cheaper for example. Like you said they have a lot of unique qualities - and the v8 paired with the LR4 updates is pretty rare breed.
