R1S vs Range Rover P530

[R1S Fan]

I own both these 2 cars. One is trouble free…the other is not. Can you guess which one is stress free?

One is descended from Lucas, prince of darkness so it’s unlikely to be trouble free.

The P530 because its tires have a bit more wear…

$5/gallon at 19mpg sounds stressful to me

The newer one?

We do as well and thus far, both have been fine. Rover had a software issue with touchscreen and a wheel adjustment while Rivian T is still a virgin with the sc.

Buddy used to say Range Rovers are like owning a haunted luxury 25,000 mansion in the alps. Beautiful, great craftsmanship, materials, technology and features.

But every once in a while all the burners in the kitchen will turn on, while music blares by the pool, doors will all fly open and toilets will all flush destroying the plumbing in the basement.

I have a 2023 Defender. It's now parked as I don't want the DC to DC converter to fail and cripple the vehicle while driving. Recall letters should start flying today. No fix as of yet, at least it's still under warranty.

That noted, the Defender has been rock solid for 3 1/2 years - now it sits on a battery tender effectively unusable.

Mild hybrids - unnecessary complexity. Avoid if possible, especially a LR mild hybrid.
