Yo guys,

Here is my Triton :



Will sell it soon and get new SUV (Fortuner of Pajero Sport). No point of keeping "lorry like" car when we never put things on the 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. 

interesting. any more info to share where u get the tuning kit?

i'm looking around for some upgrade ... the is so many brand. typhoon, vector, tunit, and etc etc brand. every brand say they are good. confusing... any comparison?

Any Sifu can help i got some question..
If raining izzit better open 4W run?
can hilux using semi synthetic oil?
Thx

I'm no sifu on this but if you check your Hilux manual, it says that 4WD should not be used on 'dry hard surfaces' but can be used on 'icy, loose gravels or off-road conditions'.

You should also know by now that the Hilux is not the most stable truck around (presumably failed the 'elk test') so do take precautions when driving on wet roads whether on 2H or 4H.

That being said, I personally DO sometimes drive my Lux on 4H on wet highways, especially during heavy rain when the roads have puddles or rain water running across because it does provide more traction. I'll avoid switching to 4WD if  the road is narrow with many sharp turns though. I never go 4L on road, wet or dry alike.

And one more thing you might want to take note (I'm not sure if applicable) is that under the section of 'Operations of Instruments and Controls' in the Owner's Manual, there is a paragraph stating:

"You should drive in four-wheel drive for at least 16 km (10 miles) each month. This will assure that the front drive components are lubricated".  

If you don't go off-road often enough, then a wet road is the next best surface to shift to 4WD every now and then i guess.
As for Semi Syn, I'm not sure as yet so no comment.
