Hey guys! Great to see you on the trail that day! I’m the other LR3 camping at 9:17 up at 11,700 feet. What a wonderful trail and the views! Glad to see our 10 min talk with Tommy didn’t cost the race! Blessings and hope to see you guys again soon!

Nice ! Hi from other Rover Brother from Florida

[@GhassanAlHarthy]

I bought a 2006 LR3 HSE V8 two days ago with 40k miles for $5500, 100% inspired by TFL. Thanks for the content!

[@turbovolvos40]

Can't beat that kind of deal!

[@RockmanDash]

awesome I have owned my 2006 range rover hse for 10 years.

[@TFLcar]

Great vehicle, and thanks for watching! I hope it treats you well!

[@Ganbala]

Nice choice 👌 don't worry about maintenance just give him love and she going to protect you...

[@Paulinthewyld]

Great truck! Keep that v8 well fed and she’ll keep you going where you want

[@robbieevans6536]

Drove my old Chevy K5 Blazer up there around 1989. Broke a shock off the frame. Stalled at one point, and had to use a can of WD40 to get started again. You could see the old wrecks in the valley below. Super sketchy, and it was late summer and about to snow and shut the trail down for the winter. I was just thankful to get out of there...Biked and skied up there on occasion too. My buddy Dean Cummings actually lived up there in an abandoned miners shack for a while.... Lent him my snowmobile to get up there.

[@LukeEdward]

The Fast Lane Car - I hope people are complimenting you on the drone shots. They are really well executed and well cut into the footage. Your production quality and content of these videos is really top tier. I don’t even care if the race was staged at points - a’la Top Gear “races” of years past. The entertainment factor is quite high and enjoyed by many, me included. Thanks, again.

[@TFLcar]

Thank you for the kind words. We’re working hard to make it entertaining!

[@dommm111]

I really like this kind of videos. The landscape is abdolutely breathtaking

[@TheCurtisLogan]

This is one of the best videos I have watched from tfl. Great job guys!

[@TFLcar]

Thanks for the kind words. We are making more of these kind of videos now.

The Turag sold poorly Becuse it was not good long term it just didn’t hold up the stupid transmission was 4 to 8 grand

No, stop it. JLR is not owned by the Chinese.

You've convinced me to put an old V8 Touareg in the garage at some point in my life. 😜

I kind of want one too. I would much rather beat up on a $4,000 VW than my 4Runner which is probably worth around 17.

That camping spot at 9:45 is AMAZING!

[@speterbilt]

I was thinking the same thing

[@AnissaEx]

Touraeg's were actually fairly reliable aside from the V10 TDI's lack of serviceability. Being a jointly developed platform with the Porsche Cayenne they were really overbuilt. I worked at an independent VW/Audi specialty shop for 12 years and the most we ever really did on these were control arm replacements, brakes and timing belts. The V8's were solid, the VR6's had breather issues but those were fairly easy jobs, but the V10's were just prone to leaks and since they basically shoehorned them in there you had to drop the whole drivetrain out of the body to service most things. However having a twin turbo V10 diesel in a midsize SUV was a lot of fun. Just my $.02! Loved the video, you guys have the best variety out of any other car channel on here. Keep up the good work!

[@scotturich]

Got to love the sound of Touaregs....when I rev the engine on mine it confuses people because they can’t believe that’s the sound coming out of the mommy wagon

[@jerrymyahzcat]

Tommy’s one sounded rattly and not that great sadly.

[@TommyboyGTP]

That's a rowdy Audi V8 under the hood, that's why :-)

[@ericksanchez7787]

And if you take it offroad you will confuse the jeep people with how capable the touareg is

[@brianmoore4778]

Own both 2005 lr3 hse locking rear differential, and 2006 touareg 4.2 standard suspension, center lock differential, 40 mm lift 275 65 18 cooper discoverer II on both. Touareg handles better ,discovery III offroads better. More room for camping no need for tent on top. Sleep inside comfortably. Dual sunroof. Way faster up the mountain in the touareg. Apples and oranges. My license plate bracket says. " another jeep how ordinary " lr3 says " another jeep how common " paid 12k for both stock condition. Pick a part wrecking is my savior for used parts. Here in Southern California lots of discarded luxury suvs.

[@OverlandTT]

Switching from iPad to watching on TV with a hot cup of coffee! Excited 👍

[@edgy21]

I really enjoy watching the overly underrated VW Touareg could do it. Moar plz?

[@Beary98]

Really made feel like it was one of the better top gear or grand tour episodes. Great guys, all ya need now is James may to tell you you're both silly as he Flys in on an ultralight

[@TheCurtisLogan]

James would get lost flying in.. lol

[@mikesteinbrecher7577]

You make us Touareg owners proud. Like to bring V10 out to play, it’s equipped exactly like yours. The big motor sure does pull.

[@xxmeanyheadxx]

i'm jealous ! i couldnt find a v10 with a rear locker, hell for three months of waiting i only saw one v10 for sale in my state lol!

[@bertpeters8217]

Interesting to hear the prices… in Holland we pay 15-25.000,- for an old disco 3

[@1950harleycharley]

This was one of the BEST videos on racing I have seen yet! Father and son racing against each other in older, high quality/high priced vehicles....How about trying it in some old Jeeps...only problem, you would never find them that cheap...It was a close race! I like to see the bantering and interaction between father and son...just how things ought to be!

[@davep2945]

Great video. A father and son enjoying a good natured competition in a heck of a slice of nature. About four months a year I wished I lived in Colorado. My uncle used to live in Denver when I was a kid and we made it out once to visit him before he passed. Last year I made a return trip as an adult and got to explore a much larger swath of the state. I tell people just go. Stay for a few weeks if at all possible. The scenery can not be captured on camera no matter how high definition it may be. The scale and the vistas are epic. At least in the mountains and the small towns. The cities, well, they're cities. Nothing special there except they have views of the mountains!

[@D4lover]

that Touareg is indestructible!

[@timothycc711]

I thought he was gonna say "I am not gonna be beat by a crusty old man", lol. I love this father/son team. Wonderful, imaginative videos that aren't run of the mill. Keep up the great work TFL (love all the reviewers).

Nice! I did this just last week in my 2000 Grand Cherokee, completely stock, after learning about the Saints John road from you guys in an earlier video. A few unavoidable bottom scrapes, but nothing major enough to worry about. Fun road!
