I prefer HILUX

Land Rover is the company name, Freelander is the cheapest (2nd cheapest after Defender) model from Land Rover.

AMG tuned G55, supercharged engine 476 hp at 6,100 r.p.m. and 516 lb.-ft. of torque from 2,650 r.p.m. to 4,500 r.p.m., putting the 2,550 kilogram (5,621 lb.) G 55 into the same league as some world class super cars. 0-62mph in 5.6 seconds. Top speed is an electronically governed at 210 km/h.

I've heard news that thousands batch of Hummer recalled to the factory due to wheel come off from the spindels. Very dangerous. Check via google.com.

hahahah ..... really gosh....thats bad.....but the new hummer looks kinda cool with night vision tech...

Hilux = 100 Hp
Hurricane = 121 hp
Storm = 120 hp
Frontier = 133 hp

just booked my Hurricane...

I didn't read every single post so forgive me if I said something that has already been said. Here's my opinion. I'm driving a 2001 Ranger myself.

1. Ford Ranger (older model) - Tends to have problems with the clutch. Got mine changed at about 80'000k's. I'm having problems with the clutch pump valve too. My mechanic suspects that it's too near to the engine thus being too hot. Rear axel tends to give way prematurely with heavy loads. Not sure if they have addressed these issues in the new Ranger.

2. Hilux Vigo - More spacious interior. Lacking an intercooler but better fuel economy. Can't fit a bull bar and go off-road due to the air bags. Don't like the clutch pedal. Too darn high.

3. Frontier - Lacking of a limited slip differential. That's why it's cheaper.

4. Defender - Good non-rust aluminium body but engine is pretty expensive to maintain. Most avid offroaders with a Defenders just keep the body and change the engine + gearbox.

Nothing about range rovers, pajeros, prados as they are in a different class.

well said...i hope to get my hilux soon maybe in a week time...keeping my finger cross...if got lio will post some pics for you all!!!
