Upgrade... buy a DmaxDave
People will still buy prados as they are a bit bigger than the fortuners and target a different market. I've got nothing against prados as I drive them at work but still love my wife's mux and wouldn't change much about it.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Quote from: Billy on Nov 05, 2015, 03:33:21 PMWhen I first saw the current generation of MU-X and D-MAX, back in 2013 at the Royal Australian Easter Show I was skeptical. New consumer based models from a commercial based manufacturer. I thought, no way, can't match Toyota but I was totally wrong. The thing that surprised me the most is how Isuzu got it right the very first time with these models and they are standing the test of time. People that 'know' want them for the right reason, they aren't perfect or the most up to date but they are very well priced and dependable.Umm, the Isuzu MU has a long history, even badged as a Honda at one stage. Plus the Gemini, Colorado and Jackaroo, until mid 2012, were all Isuzus. Isuzu have a long history making "consumer based models".Dave

I doesn't say a lot for Toyota engineering advances if a 1993 vehicle can tow 2.5 and 23 years later Toyota still offer 2.5t on some of their models. Can't wait to drop in Bruce and have a look at the MU.
