Land Rover Freelander Catalina Expedition 2004

Uber PR head of Land Rover's North American operations, Bill Baker, always knew how to create an interesting adventure for journalists. In 2004 he rounded up a bunch of scribes and hauled them over to Catalina to show off the abilities of Freelander.
The Land Rover Freelander is a compact sport utility vehicle (SUV) which was produced by the British manufacturer Land Rover, in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive versions, from 1997 to 2014. The second generation, launched in 2007, was sold as the LR2 in North America and as the Freelander 2 in Europe.

It uses a monocoque (unibody) structure, in common with almost all other crossovers in its class, but unlike traditional SUVs built with body-on-frame designs. The Freelander was replaced by the Discovery Sport in 2015.
