Check this out guys....

by Hicko
Just started a new job in a coal mine west of Brisbane and this is the land of the Hilux. The Triton looks very lonely in the car park surrounded by 20 or so new Hiluxs and a couple of Navaras .
I have been driving the Navara ( 75000kns on the clock)around the mine site until the Triton get the proper light set up installed.
I am not impressed with it. I keep stalling the motor on takeoff because it has no low down talk compared to the Triton. The ride is the same bit the seats are a bit better. Although after setting in the Navara seats for an extended drive (250km) I was getting a bit uncomfortable. The triton seats after 95000kms fit me perfectly and are very good over a long drives.
The Navara drives more like a petrol engine vehicle and revs up to 5000rpms. About the same noise level as the Triton but a bit quieter at idle. It used more fuel than the Triton about a 100kms less under the same conditions per tank and the lack of torque is noticeable at higher revs . The motor seems to work a lot harder than the Triton for the same results and I would suspect ware out a lot quicker. The gear box to is a bit mushy when changing and has long throughs between gears, but it doesn’t have a transfer case gear stick to get in the way. (Switch on the dash)
I haven’t driven a Hilux yet for any extended amount of time to compare it with the Triton, but no doubt that time will come.
I am glad that I have the opportunity to compare the vehicles under the same working conditions.
If the New Triton motor is anything like the Navara I won’t be buying one next time around and that may be sooner than later with the lengthy kms. that I am clocking up getting.
I won’t be buying a Navara and I may have to jump the fence to a new Hilux and chip it with one of Monsters DMS Piggy Back or go to the new Challenger if it come out with the 3.2 diesel or even a Pajero.
Only time will tell.

ayan na.....enough said.....

Thanks sir TP.

I believe in your statement - you didn't mean to hurt the other members of the said to-be-formed Navara Club.

I also believe that you are just informing those people what could be happening if they aren't taking well of their vehicles properly. And I suppose, if any trucks out there may it be cheap or expensive, are not taken well of properly, it will still end up the same - smoke belching.

And so now I hope that both of the clubs will be in peace soon

We might not know, the members of the said clubs might be the best buddies of all time.

Yes indeed... Thank you, Sir Renzo. It is very much appreciated.

Late addition: this is lifted from a post i wrote in our private threads:
"The BOSBs here are the living testament that despite the issues with the Strada's imperfection, we still appreciate it in a wholistic approach- styling, power, tried and tested components to name a few."
