Hello, newbie in every sense. New to the brand, new to the site, etc. First post.
Background - need a do everything vehicle. Drive around clients for business lunches, but also handle the rough terrain at our TX hill country ranch. Occasionally tow our motocycles/ATV/UTVs, etc. I LOVE diesel engines. For all these reasons, I have always purchased loaded diesel trucks. A new one every 12-24 months. Currently 17 F250 platinum srw.
Decided to give a Range Rover diesel a try. Couldn't find what I wanted on lots at the time so I put in an order. 2018 HSE Td6, SVO paint, ivory interior, loaded. But the wait is killing me! April. Also in retrospect a little concerned about how the ivory interior will hold up. Originally thought black would make things too dark. But alas, another TX dealer just had a 2017 show up on their lot. Fuji white/black. HSE Td6. Ready now. So tempting! Actually thinking the white /black combo looks pretty sporty. And maybe even lends itself a bit more to how I will present/use the vehicle. I am planning on putting some all terrain tires on, and a rack on top, etc. Add a bit of an overland/offroad accessory approach to it.
Thoughts? Anyone else with an 18 on order, just decide to grab a 17? Seems like the changes are fairly cosmetic overall (LED lights being exception). Do you think the white/black lends itself more to offroad accessorizing vs blue/ivory as I have it ordered for 18?
high class problems but still stressful!
