I'm using Aeroklas Sport Deck with motorized cover. Got it at RM 3.8k @ SS2. I'm sure can do cheaper than RM 3.5k elsewhere. Important is workmanship.

Hi all, I have a couple of MOTUL Tekma Mega X 15W40 in 5L packs for sale since I sold my ride already.

It is Semi-Syn for diesel.

I think you must choose Isuzu D-max. I think this is a brilliant car and it has sold for half a million in the world. The number of Isuzu D-max you will see on the road in Thailand is huge.

This car has few great advantages over others, let's compare with Toyota Hilux,

(1) Low maintanence cost - no doubt the toyota hilux is also a engine-powerful car but the spare part for toyota could cost you a lot whereas if you choose Isuzu D-max, the spare part does not cost you a lot because this is a Thailand made car so mostly the autoparts come from Thailand.

For instance, the oil filter (genuine) for D-max is only rm40 whereas the oil filter (genuine) for hilux is rm60. The toyota filter also made in Thailand.

(2) Fuel efficiency - Isuzu is well known for its Diesel engine. It has the ability to generate great power and consume less fuel. It is proven by test. Also, the Timing gear has been used in D-max, you do not need to change the belt. This timing gear can last you for live.

(3) reputation - although the reputation of Isuzu is not as popular as Toyota but you got to believe the strength of the Isuzu brand. I am thrilled with the performance of the car.

I personally own a D-max and I find it very cool. It is stylish and easy in maintenance. In addition, I have known one of the Isuzu parts stockist, the company is H.S.T. AUTO SPARE SDN. BHD. located in Batu 4 1/2, Jalan Ipoh, KL (next to pos office). They offer cheap price and they directly import from Thailand and Japan so you won't need to go through the retailer and workshop for the spare parts. They also recommend me a workshop so I really save a lot for my car service.

Hope this help!

Yes I`m heavily considering the DMAX...but end up buying the Hilux.

Depends on personal taste in the end. Triton a real no-no.

lol only IF we can get those "real mother trucker" here in Malaysia.. the roadtax really..

In terms of commercial (heavy mover..lorry..) Isuzu is..on par or slightly above Toyota.

even cheaper in sarawak.
this is due to no other means of transportation(no lrt / express train) and no highway in most part of sabah. mostly single lane hilly terrain which is good to polish the driving skill. except those to lawas, right?
btw, during my recent visit to kota kinabalu, the sight is so different compare to late 90s. back then, more 4wd around, this time, more kancil and viva.
