Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times
Whale, it looks like I might have a buyer for the tires and wheels together. I can recoupe 100% of the tire cost if I sell the factory wheels with it for $400/set. That puts the winter set back on the T-reg, they are a gloss black that Nicole kind of likes better esthetically. We are still working o...

Thanks folks, wife says the truck sounds like an airplane on the freeway lol.. she will try them for a couple more days, and if she doesn't like them I'll just take it on the chin and sell them gently used. We don't care about MPGs on this rig. It's already an abysmal 17 avg. It doesn't go far daily...

It's great when dealers charge fairly, I don't mind spending a little extra for the expertise. I've asked numerous times, trans fluid is lifetime, apparently. I don't remember what the deets are on the transfer case, but I'll look into the service history tomorrow. Thanks, I'm totally happy with how...

Sorry, the heating element in the seat went, the power stuff still works. Getting that pad out requires it to be removed, and taken apart. It's a lot of labor for a fairly cheap part.

Will do, no air suspension on that thing. Btw can you post up some deets on your ownership experience ? It’s a 2016 vr6? How many miles? How has it been over time ? Just a water pump ?

Based on what you are saying here, the wife will probably get over the new/cool factor and make me put regular tires on her truck. It's getting older (we bought it in 2016) so she will probably only want to keep it for another 3yrs. I don't really want to buy two sets of tires, so I'll need to find...

Ops, sounds like I bought too much tire. They're pretty sick, but the wife may hate them. We'll see, I would like to keep them if she isn't opposed to it, they can handle snow and shit so maybe I'll grab a summer set next year, she really doesn't drive much anymore, so they will likely hit 5 k every...

We were looking for tires on the T-reg, wife was cool with buying something badass that can stay on rain, snow, or shine. I think I might have gone a bit overboard, BFG K02s :facepalm: :lol: They are really cool looking, but I'm a bit worried that the wife will think they're too loud. https://i.post...

I would pump and dump, buy near end of warranty then dump after warranty expires. I don't trust the Defender personally.
