2008 Land Rover LR3 - what's the good, bad, and the ugly? Should I just stick to a Toyota or Honda?
For the money your going to pay for that I would say go with a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, its reliable and if later on you want to sell it to upgrade people wont hesitate to take it off your hands. I don't know about current LR models, but I personally know of 3 friends that have owned a LR and they have all suffered the same fate - faulty electrical issues. One friend rolled it off the lot brand new here in the US and had to exchange it within a month because of issues, that was a 2009 model. The two other friends had 2003 and 2002 models.
Also, LR dont offer much room in the interior; yeah they look bad-ass, but still, in DR you have to think of a car purchase as an investment. Ask around, and you will see that most people will say the same.

I?m leaning towards a Tacoma.
I LOVE that car -- how many miles ??
I have one of these and I love it. It handles nice, it's good on gas and it look good.

I love that car too, the only thing I dislike is it doesn't have the 3rd row seating, or does it? I wonder how much it would cost to get someone to install it.
Mine has the third row of seats.

I'm not sure it can be a retrofit. You'd need a hole in the floor for a footwell.
Better to be the Beverley Hillbillies and strap chairs onto the roof
