New or second hand Rim?

Hilux if you can afford it over a Navara, they hold their value much better than any of the other utilities. But don't get anything less than a 3 litre diese Hiluxl...the 2.8 diesels and 2.4 petrol etc. have piss weak gearboxes and are all flogged out on the second hand market. People expect way too much from them.

Navara D22 turbo diesel is a nice car to drive and has good pulling power but the gearboxes aren't up to the task and a mate who worked at Nissan HQ in customer complaints, reckons the most common complaint he dealt with was the clutch wearing out on newish Navaras...pretty easily dismissed by warranty, as it's a driver input...

He had some funny stories lol, people calling up with 10 year old cars wanting things replaced under warranty.

Navara or Hilux?

Hilux! Known a few people in the motorcycle industry who have had a Navara then changed to a Hilux. Everyone I know who has had a Hilux has loved it, so much fun and never any issues, even the abused ones.

do you like race bikes for a living ?

[Flynnn]

Hilux.. tested and proven by Top Gear

If you want to support the Aussie car industry you would buy a Ford Ranger. Designed and engineered by our guys..

[PENGUYEN]

TRD Hilux

Does ford ranger look like that? Or is that USA version? Looks decent

[PENGUYEN]

Thats the USA version, much better looking than the aus version.

Edit, actually no idea.

Ranger isn't going to sell in USA (the aussie designed one). I'm guessing that photo above is just some photoshop from ford before the final model releases or something. Cause the wild track looks a bit different to that thing above.

One design for all markets

[Count Grantleyish]

Thought Ranger is Thailand built like Toyota Hilux, Holden Colorado/Isuzu D-max?

Now where in my post did i say it was built in Australia?

" Ford’s new Ranger, which has been designed, engineered and tested here in Australia, is about to give a rude wake-up call to its major rivals. With class leading towing capacity, car-like interior, advanced powertrain and transmission packages, and superior safety, Ford has a sure winner in its stable. "

Looks pretty tough, will be interesting to see if that's what the released model looks like...Has that concept car look about it

[Count Grantleyish]

I wonder what are my chances of getting a RW cert for a car with big single hanging along the motor these days?

[alr33x]

Most likely it will look nothing like that

Just saw the new camry been driven in altona - well I think new camry they covered every badge even on the wheels but forgot the massive Toyota on the boot

[Flynnn]

Its already on sale and on road

do you like race bikes for a living ?

Was that at me? If by 'living' you mean at a great financial expense. Then yes, yes I do

Hopefully one day I will experience the perks of sponsorship/race team.

If I ever live in the US, even if only for six months, I'm getting one of these:

Daddy Hilux, effing awesome.

[Mohsen]

Imagine the things you can drive over with that thing
