If it is a 3.2 triton to 2.5 Fortuner/PS, it'll be a down grade...

Super Select gear of Pajero Sport will be nice to play with... but you pay 40 to 50% of the price in taxes when compare to the triton...Worth it?

i went offroading with james, cool guy

haha thanks Kev . Will post pictures soon. once i upload em in photo bucket

Mine is triton 2.5. I need a fast, comfortable and durable 4x4 and of course that will last for several years as I traveling to project site frequently. Any recommendation guys? Double cab bump like hell on the offroad and often feels like to puke driving with full stomach after lunch. And onroad the triton feel like snail with almost full throttle 3000rpm and speedometer only 110/120/130km/h .

Wondering how come the pajero sport price is double triton price when they just add minor things and almost identical to triton. Seems like just adding canopy on the backside, change the headlamp, leather seat and dvd monitor for triton.

Triton 2.5L is quite powerful already. If u hv tried older pick up without common rail engine, then u will know how it feels like.
Triton can reach 160kkm/h easily on highway.
Due to our taxation system, SUV is more expensive. Too bad. Most $$ into tax and wasted.

As mentioned... different tax bracket, were gov. sees it as a competition to Local produced sedan/cars. Double cabs are the only (foreign branded CKD/CBU) private own vehicle with low tax. Actually the market is ripe for a Full-Time 4WD all coil spring double cab, basically Fortuner/Pajero Sport suspension/gears with dual-cab body (shortened flatbed)

Hi, Hilux driver here

I wanna ask is there any cheap place to install canvas cover on hilux?

Went to a shop in Bt caves and was quoted rm850

Is it a good price? have to buy today or tomorrow because need to balik kampongggggg

Thanks in advance guys

What's the shop's name ?

Why dont you install a canopy, much sporty and elegant on Hilux.

This :

Canopy is of course much much more expensive compared to a single canves. But with a canopy, there are more advantages compared to disadvantages especially for balik kampung trip.

just installed 2 spot light on my ride. Looks good.

Hi guys, I plan to start a small business in the near future so I think a pickup truck should be suitable for me. unfortunately my budget is quite tight (around 20K) so any recommendations?

Also recently saw a used Tata Telcoline in motor trader. is it worth it? I mean, it's cheap but that's about it. I don't know much about this pickup truck.

used toyota hilux would be fine.. dont buy tata.. expensive spare part.

HI all , im a Owner of Pajero IO , any here ?? KInd of a rare 4x4 car ?

a pajero mini. rare indeed! my neighbour own one. was a 1.8 displacement if am not mistaken. drove once.
i prefer the 2 doors v6 3000. more umphh!

btw, stay away from tata double cab pick up. the car sux to the max. a friend of mine bought a used one and within
a month, he dully trade it in for a used vitara.

RM850 is normal price already for canvas.
If flat one, around rm550. there is one 2nd
flat canvas for sale in mudah.com

you go to batu caves4x4 or ORE4x4?

check out the mother trucker 6 speed manual navarra... more powerful than the bigger displacement hummer
too bad the power delivery is not as smooth as the hummer nor does it was as stream line as the bigger displacement 3.2 triton.
waiting for the 3.0 hilux.... wonder how it will fare in with our diesel quality.

damn
u guys offroading
my vitara dont think can do that since most stuff are stock except engine

haha
