Hi Andrew
It wasn't a suggestion for you mate. (smiling)
For several reasons we got sick of the trailer/van inhibiting going to the
places we wanted. So we sold the camper van.
One son has a range rover or land rover that has it and they never use it. I now believe that it is called Active Height Control. They just leave it disabled. I only know he has it because when he brought it around to "brag to Dad!!" and I went to get in he told me to wait and he lowered it. Maybe he thought I was a cripple or something. Just showing off.
Luckily we chose the GXL and not the Sahara. They were side by side. I am not scared of electronics as I worked for 48 years in the field. We travel solo in remote
places. So the less "smarts" that can go wrong to better we like it.
We didn't see a person in five days last trip and we were moving all the time. No internet or phones out there.
We had a "water in fuel" warning on the GXL when up in the high country. Got the book out and it said it was a warning and that I could drive for a short distance. Got
home and next day a mechanic said the bloody sensor was stuffed. No water in the fuel at all. What if it had been a real exhaust sensor, or the like, that stopped the motor etc.
But I also acknowledge that for some they are great and may in some situations work better than the some drivers. So -- Enjoy
Phil
