break down faster. Higher fc. Higher maintenance. Higher power. Uncomfortable rear seat. Worth it?Triton 2.5 or Hilux 2.5 or Hilux 3.0 - [Auto], Maintenance? Durability? FC?

The RA version kinda nice man... Especially the leather seats. But 2.5 only... |

QUOTE(peachmonkey @ Nov 28 2011, 10:30 PM) Was just wondering, if the Hilux (both 2.5 and 3.0) is underpowered would a Unichipping or tuning the engine using AEM parts increase it to be on par with the rest of the 4X4? 2.5 is underpowered, 3.0 is not.This is assuming the warranty period is already over or the person removes the AEM tuning kit during servicing. Unichip can make 2.5 and 3.0 fast. But a normal chipped truck can smoke the 2.5 very easily. Unless you are willing to spent a lum sum on upgrading the Hilux lah... Quite alot of stuff not compatible with Hilux. Plus they are little sensitive to play with the sensors. Get the 3.0 if roadtax is not a issue for you. Hilux has the looks and good for people who want tall ride with macho looking. (IMO) |

QUOTE(Darkcity212 @ Nov 29 2011, 12:25 AM) Hilux-Looks tough,underpower,bumpy ride,uncomfortable stiff rear passenger seat,reasonable consumption. Chev colorado = Isuzu Dmax. Everything are the same except for the looks and interior.Navara-Toughest and meanest looks among other trucks,goes really fast,high consumption,reasonable comfort but still bumpy,uncomfortable stiff rear passenger seat Triton-Aerodynamic look,has that aggressive styling from the honeycomb grill,2.5 diesel fast enough for a pickup truck,comfortable ride for driver and passenger(good suspension),feels like driving sedan,reasonable consumption and also good braking system. Isuzu DMAx-Tough styling,worse uncomfortable ride especially rear passenger going through every bumper makes them hop.braking sux,consumption the best. Chevrolet Colorado?-impressive toughness looks to take over the navara but no details about this truck yet. if i were u i would rather wait for chev colorado or just get 2.5 triton talk about lasting for 8-9 years?no one here can give a definite answer.all brands are reliable but depends on how the owner maintains their car DMAX brakes is very good bro. Have you tried one? True about the uncomfortable at the rear, but then most of the truck are also like that. Regarding the looks, very subjective since it's all down to personal preference. |

QUOTE(Darkcity212 @ Nov 29 2011, 07:40 PM) bro i tried the dmax.i stepped hard for it to brake but the triton brake response is really good compared to dmax.and how can u said all the trucks feel the same as dmax?compare triton and dmax,way way difference in terms or comfort and rear passanger comfort.the dmax suspension sux. Bro, have you been to Thai and look at the Colorado yet? Only the difference is outlook and interior. Engine bay, transmission, and 90% of the other parts are all the same. Both 2.5 and 3.0 are the same, 4JJ1 and 4JH1.and how did u know about chev colorado like isuzu dmax?any links to this claims? What i meant is all truck equipped with leaf spring won't give you sedan car like comfortn. If it does, why would people still upgrading their suspension? Yes, Triton is more "comfort" than the DMAX for sure. At least it is much more reliable than the 3-ton. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isuzu_D-Max Only the 2012 new Colorado which recently launched on this month has upgraded the overall and looks. But then the looks are still 80% similar to the new 2012 Isuzu DMAX. And in case you wonder why they are sharing almost 90% of the platform, GM has sold some of their share to Isuzu hence the reason. http://paultan.org/2011/11/12/chevrolet-co...rom-chiang-rai/ How we wish Naza can bring in the 2.8 diesel Duramax. 180hp with 480nm of torque. yummilicious !!!
