    I like the white color Jack, that was my second choice.

    The D5 I ordered is also a road trip car. I have almost 30k miles on my 2016 Rubicon already. The D5 will replace it.
    Ordered - HSE 3.0 V6 Diesel Kaikoura Stone 20" Black pack + more.

    Jack,
    Did your window sticker advertise mpg city-highway for the TD6 D5 you bought?

    Land Rover North America website still says TBD.

    My dealer is showing an in stock diesel at 26/21 vs 21/16 for the gasoline variant. Glad I ordered the diesel, just wish it would show up already.

    I hope so. I was expecting 29 highway.

    One of the guys at Land Rover told me that the RRS easily gets 32 mpg on the highway - and he says he did a road trip where he got as high as 37 mpg. We'll have to see how the D5 does. I'm planning on keeping a log book to track mileage.

    First partial fill up on the new car calculates to 21,1 mpg with the engine still breaking in and almost all of the miles so far in stop and go type city traffic. I'd like to get it out and go for drive in the country to see what it will do as a baseline.

    Thanks. It's the same color scheme I had with my LR4. Wink

    No, those are 20". I was afraid the 21" would be a bit too harsh. I was originally going for the Dynamic Design package, but I for the life of me couldn't figure out how to order one with massage seats. My dealer couldn't either, their build system kept kicking it back when trying to add those type of climate/massaging seats.

    But, now I'm kinda happy I didn't because I think the Dynamic package is a bit too blingy for me anyways.
