If buy Navara,, jadi begini...



Best reason why purchase Isuzu Dmax ...

More then that,, my friend at sg petani drive in town area at full tank diesel , can reach 1200 km ..
Siapa mahu challenge ? Hahaha...

Why no triton. Tdy just sent for major car service rm1.2k.

Hilux can be insured under msig n rhb.

tq tq. yes i totally noob bout truck. coz never interest me at all. so now have to consider buying coz need for kebun. trying to get the idea of which to get.

Dmax is well known as workhorse vehicle..
U will hardly see other own sell them 2nd in market

but some people i met say not suitable for going offroad / kebun

if only to ferry fruits..then get Hilux

if use for work & personal, then Navara

btw, how heavy is those fruits for 1 time carry?

triton athlete

Triton for quietest MIVEC diesel

if used at fruitfarm, and fruitfarm only, consider getting hilux single cab. ranger and navara tends to be abit lemak when it comes to heavy duty job. u can use it for heavy duty, yes, but u must never skip ur maintenance. hilux not so.

based on my personal experience+ppl who use 4x4 to angkat kelapa sawit

why not dmax
their parts is better, designed for rough uses

Only those idot thinking off must powerful pickup truck baru blh masuk kebun ,, hahaha ...
Think again ,, why all contactor , businesses own pakai Isuzu ?

This because ,, from every single money are safe from serving, maintaince , spare parts and fuel consumption ..

The only weakens about Dmax is lower HP only ,, but to ask yourself ,, do always drive like rally driver at kebun ?

Do you want to drive a vehicle which can safe your monthly expenses ?
If only u are Kaya ,, then can afford expensive truck like ford ranger .. then don't mind purchase it to mania the truck everyday ...

And if u are average Malaysia working class ,, to bare in mind ,just go ahead with those pickup truck which is reailable , durability and safe fuel in long run ...

Faham hang ...

dmax ladder frame is weak..

Sure boh,, but how come Thailand market already 2 years leading the pickup truck market ? Can win Hilux , ford ranger, Navara & Triton ...

And if ladder frame is weak,, then this video panggil apa ?
Rubbish truck ?

am disappointed ts didnt state Triton.. proud owner of Triton MIVEC here.. smooth, tough & reliable engine. plus tough body.. survived a T-Bone crash in it.. car manage to protect occupants well but sustain heavy damage.. luckily able to repair damage and everything is well again..

Ranger, best driving experience, not so reliable parts

Hilux, reliable but thief magnet

Navara, not really best in class

mau drive inside farm nia

get isuzu single cab
really is work horse

Australians are pretty rough with their vehicles even in city, and we carry and tow heavy shit

The top 3 selling trucks are

Hilux
Ranger
Triton

I can only tell you these, the rest you figure out sendiri

Everyone spits on Isuzu here, no idea why and not bothered to find out, I prefer wagon to haul my goods and I don't tow much

Hilux single cab not good as dmax single cab? I always see hilux in farm nia, maybe resale good mentality. Anyway my wallet say yes to resale

isuzu dmax
been used for towing bike
already 4-5 years no issue just service as per manual

Yes. But it has the noisiest engine and most uncomfortable ride. Very harsh and noisy.

The best allrounder is Navara

Hilux dont take la. Anytime get stolen

do you really need 4x4 capability?
do you think u will get stuck in a lorry or just dusty and muddy at best?
if not, as kebun owner and kerja kampung guy i suggest u look for 1 ton lorry instead
u can haul more, offer transport service to offset your cost (it do cost considerably more in upkeep). but a decent 30 years old toyota hi ace could be had with under 10k. and thats after taking in the cost for adding additional spring, sending it to a good workshop for mechanical make over and such.

if you really need 4x4 and it must be a pickup truck,



this is the choice. its leaf sprung in the front. will take any abuse u throw at it. but it commands near 30k price tag. even for a 25 years old car. highly sought after too


if you need new/new-ish truch with loan and all, i would suggest navara np300. contrary to popular malaysian belief, this truck is capable for heavy load
a simple coil helper air bag is all that is needed

http://www.4x4airbags.com.au/nissan-navara...oil-helper-kit/

company been using Hilux since SiR era

got Courier , Ranger , Triton and Hilux from different eras since almost span for 18 years

For ultimate work horse? Go for Hilux. nuff said.

quite surprised a number of /k suggest dmax. i will consider it and find more info about it.

for triton i donno. never come to picture. lol.

Hilux was always mentioned and recommended. was thinking buy this. but due to thief magnet part i also quite worry.

Lol towing bike

This is what people here use it for

No wonder not much Isuzu

Triton 2nd hand

Isuzu single cab ...

2011 Ford Ranger towing four other rival trucks!

https://<link removed>/2012/01/20/video-2011-f...r-rival-trucks/

Ranger tow a total of four black trucks – from the rearmost truck in order we have the previous generation Ranger, the Mitsubishi Triton, the Toyota Hilux, and the Isuzu D-MAX! The feat looked so incredible that Hafiz thought he was looking at a Ford F150 at first, not a Ranger which is a segment below.

Navara
If you got money to mod go for ranger

Support.

All those cap ayam brand apart of Hilux is good for city ride.

Ni doubt,, hilux is a good vehicle..
But only because of little problem like high risk thefts which no insurance company dare to cover from following year ..and this handling problem ...

be objective
ts mau masuk kebun bukan tarik rumah
so no need that high hp
i use 2.5 dmax setel

coz dmax is made in thai? idk...

i use single cab hilux sr to carry ffb to collection centre. almost 20 years, all dinged up, but ladder frame is still straight, engine still strong altho got emit black smoke during heavy load.

hilux can carry 1 tonne easily. even even close to 2 tonne if u know how to stack the ffb

dmax after 5 years carrying 1-1.5 tonne, the ladder frame become warped, as told by ppl who use it as workhorse, be it private use or as company truck.

Be understanding about the usage ,, some vehicle are use for certain purpose ...

I interviewed some of my Sabahan friends. They told me Triton 4W getting popular already compare to Hilux. Btw ur Hilux SR got leak at motor oil?

u mean makan minyak issit? idk... makan minyak usually white or blue smoke. this one black smoke. friend say commonrail need servicing.

which in this case, is to be a workhorse. deswai when ppl suggest dmax over hilux for workhorse, i say frame ladder is weak. i cant see whats wrong with my statement

Dmax
Cheap
Mainteanance kk

Smart people avoids Ranger.

Use Ranger to pickup sawit? Now, that is rare shit...

Hilux all the way, 99% people in my district use Hilux single cab for transporting sawit, pepper and etc etc

pretty sure thats deliberate tyre failure

funny thing when toyota reached them to try replicate it, it cannot be done that time

try drive it in real life, its stable even on cornering dude

Your company used isuzu dmax as well? Hilux good in sir era, but when isuzu dmax came, our site prefers dmax.

I drive a Triton, smooth and quite interior, very car like.,not bumpy at all. Power like crazy. Only downside is makan minyak (maybe I heavy footed cos too much power not to tekan) and expensive maintenance (ranger more expensive).

Hilux more expensive to buy, insurance also more expensive. Very harsh ride.

Dmax fuel efficient, service cheapest compared to the rest. Very durable (I drove a dmax for 12 years). Interior more utilitarian. Would I recommend dmax? Yes I would.

your source : "dude trust me"


Seriously la, u go sabah sarawak ask car guy or those foreman, dmax is the best for realiblity la, not to mention those mod truck one, dmax mod capablebility much higher compare to other brand with stock internal.

the only isuzu used was trooper but it was the suv. it was fairly ok. but hilux just so robust. 1ton loads 400k km nothing major just maintenance.

n ur source : "dude trust me"

oh the irony.

u want to believe or not is up to u. u belip or not, i didnt lose or gain anything. i merely retelling whats been told by my friends and families.

n btw...im a sabahan

u know why dmax is the best platform for modding? coz the engine is detuned to maximize fuel economy.

btw with same level of tuning, navara can achieve more power than dmax. then again... tuning a car is all about how much money ure willing to throw at the engine.

btw stock dmax 1st gen is notorious for its midrange power dip. get urself 1st gen dmax go drive kundasang hill, ull know what im talking about.

n btw... ts is asking about which truck is good for workhorse. not as a platform for tuning

Lol nobody mentioned triton? Uncle drove one in sarawak, always ikut him go kebun, drive up like almost degree hill like no prob je. crazy

Hilux or Triton for heavy duty use. Navara offers a comfortable ride. Ranger I heard quite manja (high maintenance).

get isuzu dmax save fuel

since everyone mentioned dmax, but does it have capability to carry 1 ton load like Revamperz said which hilux can?

Hilux is better overall but Hilux many thief like to steal if u buy dmax at least not so many people steal many car reviewer claim dmax is quite good n the FC is better than hilux

Lol we never have 1 tonne load. Just the usual site equipments - genset, woods, steel

cakap only 1 ton

saw so many pickups whatever brand also carry more than 1 tonne lol (maybe not navara lel)

highest i saw one hilux vigo carrying 1.5-1.6 tonnes of raw rubber with 5 passengers

damn, let me troll a bit...go for Chevy Colorado

hailat, cheaper parts, maintenance & aftersales services quite okay. install dual key pedal lock. kena curik also claim insurance je la.

in W.M Hailak really Hailat coz many insurance company wont want to cover.

in Sabah Sarawak many Hailak je.

nothing to do with tyre failure... and toyota themselves admit the problem, that's why they came up with a specific model in eu to fix this prob... but that's only in eu with nobody going for that nerfed model

triton is a budget choice...
