Ford Bronco?

Certainly not high end, but has a bit of the G class boxy cool factor.

Edit: Weird.. none of the Bentayga posts were "up" when I hit reply, so I assumed it wasn't one. Definite good call on the Bentley, it's on the list to replace my girlfriends X5 50i when the time comes.

Sorry to hear Tesla didn’t work out for you. Me - I wouldn’t drive anything but a Tesla now... to each their own... good luck with the next vehicle purchase, hopefully it’s another environment friendly and exciting one 👍

Congrats regardless of what car you will choose (or have chosen). I won't buy an electric car, unless it becomes mandatory.

This was my exact feelings with the car, all of them. Just cheap crap and never understood the appeal. As MB, BMW, etc start coming out with alternative energy options, Tesla will become irrelevant.

Great choice - what was Fletcher Jones selling the G63 for? Over MSRP?

Congrats!

I have said this many times I think this is a best Ultra SUV currently offered, I dont see any competitors honestly as you pointed out. The RR is ehhh, the G is a G but I don't feel its a direct comparo, the lamb is ehh I just feel after the LM they took the a turn in the wrong direction almost infiniti like. The Bently stands on its own.

Damn...what a sweet ride!

And awfully gracious of you not to call out Fletcher Jones more thoroughly. Glad that they were able to properly convince you that they're not worth doing business with.

They really have done some great marketing and they even have a showroom in the mall in the large town near me.


But every time I open any Tesla thread here inevitably there will be all of these comments as to how their build quality sucks and ability to get parts is almost non-existent.


Eventually if he sells enough maybe things will change, but who's all buying this crap in the meantime?


Congrats on the one you eventually chose, great choice.
