    We have had our Grenadier for a couple of months - 8000 K... and we love it! It's quiet and great fun. It is a top-class car.

    Grenadiers are selling very well here in Idaho. We are a rugged state with winters that can be very rough and a tough built 4x4 is worth its weight in gold. Things I instantly notice? The interior controls are all easy to use with space for gloved fingers and no reliance on silly touch sensitive sensors that won’t detect the touch of a gloved finger. A BMW straight 6 that is rugged, reliable and easy to work with. An interior with lots of room for kids, dogs and hunting/fishing buddies. Built for off-road use with external electric outlets. Room for larger wheels/tires. Underneath the truck everything looks purpose built for durability. Maintenance friendly design with room to work.

      Great feedback. I agree with you on all points. I’m excited to head back to CaTuned Off-road and test out the new equipment that is being installed. I definitely can’t wait to get engaged in some serious diverse terrain. Yes, definitely agree with the frame comment. It’s the type of frame that literally if somehow it was damaged or broken, it’s a cut and weld repair for sure.thank you for sharing your thoughts and insight. Greatly appreciate you subscribing tour channel as well.

    Test drove one the other day, the one I looked at was priced at $77k at Rusnak in Pasadena, Ca. Loved the utility and pure toughness of the vehicle overall... HATED the "recirculating-ball hydraulic steering system." It's probably a badass system for overlanding and bouncing over rocks and logs, etc. but the steering action takes a lot of getting used to (feels unresponsive and doesn't right itself immediately after a turn) and could possibly cause a bit a fatigue on longer roadtrips just getting to the overland trails... If you live on massive acreage that is mostly dirt roads or you're a farmer/rancher that needs to trek long distance over your lands, this vehicle is thoroughly for you BUT the Ineos Grenedier is definitely not designed to be a daily city driver.

      @@peopleschamp7258 An old-school truck, such as a Defender or Land Cruiser 70, doesn’t have such problems at all. Furthermore, when it comes to old-school trucks, they must have a manual gearbox, a better turning circle, higher clearance, a reliable engine (not a BMW), and gages in a proper place (not an iPad in the middle of the dashboard), among other features. This car is nothing but an extremely over-advertised and overpriced toy for metrosexuals.

    Is it worth the $90k? time will show - I'm sure many will buy considering uniqueness and a front axle setup which is proper for off-road style use.

      lol on take a breath, no kidding, the day before, I more or less lost my voice and it was somewhat a struggle to talk hahah, NO Excuses though. It was gas, apparently the diesel is not available in the US yet, maybe in time. I believe there is an initial build of around 7k vehicles designated for the US market.
      I will say this, the frame and chassis are solid. I’d trust that anywhere at anytime.
      I also like how it’s not over refined in electronics and that the engine bay is user friendly and adaptable to inspection and repair as needed.

    It’s an awesome vehicle it needs some improvements but the biggest thing is the cost they’re expensive and I am assuming that’s because of the tariffs that have to be paid when they come into the United States, the competition is the jeeps and the Ford broncos at least for off-roaders, Personally I feel it needs a little bit more ground clearance and it’s got a few things that I think they need to change to make it better but overall I think it’s an awesome vehicle if it was a little more affordable I definitely would consider one I really like it I sat inside one recently and felt right at home, a little bit more power would be nice & a little bit taller tires and lift springs and I think the vehicle would just be awesome off-road.

    This appears to be a well thought out vehicle. I like it - a solid engine and drive train (no turbos, thank God) and a big back storage area. Classic look too. Overall, I like the interior layout and the thought put into adding accessories on the exterior. It seems to have a nice combination of off road capabilities and long haul freeway driving. I think a big issue will be service in The US. If that happens and future reliability ratings are very good, I would consider getting one.

      The solid axles and the simplicity of the undercarriagewas refreshing.
      Often times there are so many plastic covers, miscellaneous items, and an assortment of unnecessary items that just get in the way of being able to be confident in diverse terrain.

      Tire pressure coming from the factory seems to be a bit over inflated which causes some of steering issues. After adjusting the tire pressure on the shop unit between 35-38 PSI there was a significant improvement. More predictable. But yes agreed initially very odd.

      What city are you located in? The reason I ask is in LA the featured vehicle in this video was 93k as it sat. When we got to Oregon, “Wilsonville”, the dealer showed the same rig at 83k, now you just shared a price of 73k. It will interesting to find out where all the variances of 20 K plus are coming from.
      I could see how someone would call it the poor man’s G wagon.
      But I think at this point if I was looking for a vehicle that is truly going to be capableoff the road I’m gonna lean towards the Grenadier.
      I’ve looked underneath the chassis of some of the G wagons in the past, as well as the refinements inside, and don’t get me wrong. It has a lot of luxury to it but I think we’re talking two different animals here when it’s time to get out there and get in the terrain. Thanks for taking time to watch our video and share your thoughts. I can’t wait to learn more more about this vehicle. If you have any additional information you can share I’m totally down to learn.

The safari windows on the roof are $2,200 alone. I did see one today on the street it looks good but idk I may just buy a Raptor and see if these are a fad.

    • @BryanPike
      @BryanPike 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If you go to the online build configuration you can see the base model and other packages. The great thing is every feature is a la carte. You are not locked into getting say the Fieldmaster package to get Safari Windows, like so many other manufacturers trim packages with stuff you may not want. You can prioritize what options you want based on your budget. Also the great thing is how many factory features you can get like the Aux power system extra battery, external power hookups, winch, etc which on many vehicles is a lot of extra time and labor after purchasing to build up an over lander. I will be putting in my order before Summer.
      And my build will be on that $80k mark. I plan on having this a long time so making sure to get everything I want, rather than have buyers remorse after the fact that I didn't get lockers or that dead sexy red contrast frame. The INEOS dealer outside Boston is still buying built out, so no lot full of pre-built Grenediers yet.... Cheers!

      Hello, thanks for checking out our channel and sharing some thoughts. I’ve heard thoughts on the pricing going both ways. While some folks consider it steep, many others are feeling it right in the market.
      I’m really curious what the comparison for vehicle capability, build out and reference are triggering “over priced concern”.
      Here is my thought so far, could change but just a thought. If I build out a Jeep Rubicon, as close as possible, low end MSRP on the Jeep 2024 WRANGLER RUBICON 4WD was $65,295 and comparable Jeep $93,935. Of course In strongly believe the Jeep is no comparison and the Grenadier overall is better built in many ways. Then there is the Defender which was hovering around $84,500 and $116,000.00 and simple not a vehicle I would go with and Lastly the G-Wagon, which can push $139k -$250k and Instill don’t believe it will be a match let alone comparing maintenance.
      It’s just an interesting new topic to have.
      I’ve been encouraging others to do a lot of research when doing the comparisons.
      I still feel that the INEOS is the dominant vehicle in many respects. Things in the steering these are manageable with a simple add-on. it’s also proven itself in other countries. Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts and opinion, and watching our channel. It’s been a great discussion. Let me know if you have any additional insider thoughts. I’d love learning as well.

      I do like the refinements of the G-wagons, but the overall expense of maintenance may detour me a bit. Also, I feel as if I would be more likely to get out and really use the INEOS in rough terrain and challenging back roads over that of the G-wagon. Thank you for taking time to check out our video.

      Hello,
      Thank you for taking time to check out the video video.
      It’s funny, I don’t disagree that $93,000 just in general is a lot of money.
      But I started doing some research and trying to find a comparable vehicle, which bleed or not was not easy.
      Most people would like to consider the defender, the G wagon, or even the jeep, it comparable vehicle.
      But with all due respect to those vehicles, the defender is not a comparable vehicle maybe by price tag, but that’s about it the G wagon would not be able to do with this sink, and do straight out of the box, and by all means it’s much more Pricey.
      In respect to the jeep and I say I’m speaking of the Rubicon if you’ve tried to get an apples to apples vehicle out the door, believe it or not I was seeing these things at 90,000 $116,000.00 equipped. and no, I’m not joking, it’s insane. No, don’t get me wrong you see people build jeeps beyond believe, but again, I’m talking as close to apples to apples off the lot comparison, and this vehicle would destroy a jeep in the wild. Thank you for taking the time to watch the video and share your thoughts. We plan on doing some videos on this in the near future as I’ve learned more about the vehicle, hope you’re having a great day and take care.

    I was considering buying this car and took it for a test drive. I learned more about it, read various feedback, and checked everything repeatedly. As a professional driver with relevant engineering degree (ICE) and extensive skills in both Europe and Australia, I’ve reached a verdict: this car is far from good. It’s overpriced and overhyped, a product of marketing rather than engineering excellence. I’m unsure of the target audience for this design. It’s probably not suitable for off-road enthusiasts or luxury car lovers. Perhaps it’s aimed at metrosexuals who don’t mind wasting money on something of little value.

      Thanks for checking out our video. As we continue to explore and learn more about the INEOS, in becoming more intrigued by a few things especially the Power plant and transmission choice, which I’ll hopefully be able to elaborate more on soon. But in respect to your thoughts/position on changing the shocks and springs, I can’t really see where this becomes a concern? Its robust suspension, features separate coils and shocks, which offers a straightforward system that allows for easy replacement. It’s also a design that ensures reliability on challenging terrains, with minimal complications. In case of issues, the ability to quickly repair such things will be of ease. Also, the Eibach springs are one of the most respected spring manufacturers on the market.
      If you have time please elaborate on what makes the car awful in respect to engineering. Thanks and safe travels.

      @@ekkonesters599 thanks for the reply, I mean I looked at quite a few at a dealership in Britain where I live and and there is no underbody protection unless you want to pay extra. I found the cabin area to be cramped. I was told by the salesman than the chassis is not galvanised as everyone was told in the early days but it’s just painted. When I asked the salesman how do you change the rear shocks as you have limited space he got a technician who told me, you have to undo the body to chassis mount bolts all of them from the rear but leave the front 2 attached at the engine so you can raise the body slightly to get access. Also there was a about 5 cables really close to the propshaft and exhaust that could become an issue off-road, I’m hoping it was just someone lazy at the factory not doing there job properly and not how it was intended.
      I took lots of pictures of all the flaws I found.

I sympathize with those who were duped into buying this junk for large sums of money. They are left with three options: to remain silent, to falsely praise this substandard vehicle, or to admit that they were fooled into wasting their money.

    There are countless individuals worldwide willing to spend extravagant sums on things that might not be worthwhile.
