I Wish I Knew This Before Buying The Ineos Grenadier...

Ben, your lawn looks like it was carpet bombed by a squadron of B-52’s 😊

Picked up my Grenadier up March 7th. Have 2K miles on it. It's an incredible vehicle. Nice as a daily driver, fantastic off road. Someone just took a similar if not identical stock Grenadier to yours and ran the Baja 1000 start to finish with zero mods. Same spec as my Grenadier and Shale Blue too, like mine and yours. Sir Jim Racliffe, who conceived the Grenadier because of his love affair with the original Land Rover 110's has done a great job. He went to Magna Steyr in Austria, (who engineered and builds the Mercedes G-Wagon), to engineer and design the Grenadier. It's built more robust then the G-Wagon. This vehicle is designed to last 25 years. Jump on in, the waters fine.

My late Father used to say never be the first to try out a new thing. Wait and see if anyone dies from it. Also Ben you are young enough not to remember how cars were ordered back in ancient times. Some packages were available but a lot of items were an individual option. And color choices were widely available. From what you say it seems like these folks are returning to that a bit.

The reason why they didnt go direct like Tesla or Rivian. The laws in US are antiquated and Electric car manufactuers were able to bypass the law of dealerships because the law was written for ICE. Ineos could have fought it but it would have taken 5 years and lot of cash to have goverment say yea no. So hence the dealer network was created.

Ignore the hate my man. It's fueled by jealousy. You've got your shit together, and some people can't handle it. Keep it up.

So you, a car expert, dropped 80 k ona completely unknown, untested, First year vehicle with No dealer network? Maybe you should move into testing riding lawnmowers👌

They look super cool, i just have zero reason to trust them yet.

My local dealer has about 20 Grenadiers sitting on the lot ready for customers. I wanted to dislike it, but checking it out IRL... they are awesome. For the price that dealers are asking for the new Toyota LandCruiser - with a four cylinder engine, street tires and 8 inches of ground clearance... you can buy a Grenadier. Crazy.

Great info, thanks Ben.

Idk why there's a bunch of hate comments, but i appreciate you taking a risk that not only you enjoy but us the viewers as well

Just buy a Toyota Landcruiser, and get on with your life.

The biggest obstacle in my opinion is the distance to the dealership network if you do not live within a reasonable distance of a dealership.

Great video and a sweet looking truck ! Love the color and the options you ended up with . Would love one and maybe some day , Safe travels in it and love your channel .

Thank you for the info. I think it looks Great

You make some great points! I like these vehicles, but I'd like to see how they age and what kind of maintenance issues they will have before committing to one. I like the color on that one.

I really like that "thing" and the color is fantastic....Cheers Ben!

Was skeptical when you first purchased but since have seen other vids on it where they were going through the under carriage and that is a high quality piece of kit. Good on you. 👍

Ben like your video because you explained about the any vehicle you to know

Very honest views and review.

In Europe, for alleged pedestrian safety reasons, Alfa Romeo is no longer allowed to fit an off centre front licence plate. Yet you can drive around with a winch on the front. What a weird world we live in.
