I'll offer you my professional advice. Lived in Scottsdale for 10 years and had two full-service carwashes (with full-service detail shops) for 10 years in SoCal. (just to qualify where my advice is coming from).
Water spots on the glass are fairly easy. As few other posters said, steel wool...
That's the right attitude. Money is not important. I never understand the statement "I can't afford it". Just make more. It's easy, trust me. Been doing it my whole life.
Maybe that's why I don't have problems! I was born as an asshole (in two or three first posts on this forum). After just a small number of posts, the title of "The Asshat" was bestowed on me by the good people of this forum. And low and behold,....last week I received the honorary Doctorate...
Yes. You made a big mistake buying an American vehicle. Most dealerships of the American made vehicles are employing rude, uneducated, dumb, and lazy personnel. Unfortunately, educated, polite, customer service oriented, intelligent, and hard working American people don't usually aspire to work...
When he said 2" spacers, I thought he's talking about wheel spacers. Body lift "spacers" are seldom called "spacers" as you know. 2" pucks will definitely do it, but crash bars need to come out also.

My serious advice: Go to any auto mechanic and talk to him. Invite him to drive with you on the highway (buy him a drink and/or lunch). Put him behind the wheel, and he will tell you what's wrong (I see your experience in this is lacking). He will tell you right away if it's a tire or...
If you remove crash bars, and do the body lift 3/4", use 2" wheel spacers, you'll be OK on the pavement, gravel road, and SOME mild "trails" (minimal suspension flex). Body lift is easy to do, and if you are going just for looks, you could explore the suspension tower spacers also (not too much...
WT looks like a better deal. These are the "asking" prices, right? I would do some heavy negotiation on that unit. Sold at that price, WT is what's known in the car sales world, a "five pounder" (speaking in the real American money). 47K (US) OTD should be your target (first offer from you...
I have an opinion (don't we all?). There is a proven exodus of people from the overpopulated areas of California (for example), and elsewhere, to rural America. It's VERY visible here in the rural Idaho (hell, I came here from Cali nine years ago!). This county grew a lot in population in the...
Great story. Awesome vehicle. I want one, wife says if we drop that kind of cash on another set of wheels (we own 11 vehicles), she wants a Range Rover (we just gave our L322 to my grandson back in March). I'd like a Raptor. I'm too old to replace the wife (not because of the performance, but...
