Note from configuration website though they are finally offering option of 21 inch boots and factory fit electronic tow bar... too little too late....

Nothing to report so far although do echo some other posts that highlight how easily marked some of the interior trim is.

Hi picked mine up identical end of March.
Totally agree marks are a nightmare and bits keep falling off . Got miner scrap on front as sensors don't always work.

I love that Silicon Silver. Here is one with a Johnson Rod 1.5 inch lift kit and 275-55-20 (31.9 inches) Goodyear DuraTrac Mud Terrain tires.
I like the look of the larger tires and mud terrains. you can see more here: http://johnsonrods.com/johnson_rods_3_010.htm

Sweet. I love the color and the tire upgrade. Can you share the tire and rim size?

Thanks!

I noticed the tire size on the photos in the website link. I added the Goodrich ATA to my 2017 Disco HSE and it's a perfect fit. I've been hitting some good trails in the pacific northwest this past month and the tires a nice upgrade. What is the benefit of the lift and would you recommend it?

That looks great, I love that liquid metal look of the Silicon Silver. Those roof bars sit quite high don't they? Is that to help with wind noise I wonder?
