If they lifted their game by improving the fit and finish, including the paintwork they would be reasonable in the price department. The cabin needs some rethinking especially the plastics and the stupid doors. Fix the seats and include a rear view camera as standard, improve the wading depth, add a factory diff lock or option it and keep the price the same. I think they are all overpriced and mostly underdone but the Dmax has a chance at keeping market share if they would get their heads out of the sand and have a look around...they didn't even do an update this year ( as far as I know) and the new Hilux is released.....work that out. Just plain stupid in my book. They should have been working on a revamp 2 years ago.

I tend to agree with that, the D-MAX and MU-X are still fantastic vehicles but their pricing will need to reflect the ' slight falling behind other makes ' in the short term and if so, they will keep selling for a while until new models arrive in 2017 that's my guess. With the Fortuner looking to become very popular and I am already spotting the new Hilux everywhere on the roads and the new Mitsubishi Challenger about to be released tells me that Isuzu need to stay right on price to make acceptable sales over the next 12 months.

Billy:
Not sure if you are able to see attached but these prices are highway robbery.....Hello Isuzu!

BMux:
18" wheels on the "Crusade"? Be interesting to see how that goes off-road and in the sand  :laughing7:

So you need to spend $68k to get GPS? Ouch.

Seems like the perfect Toorak Tractor. No doubt there will be zillions of them on the road by Christmas.

Billy:
No doubt there will be millions of them - The base GX doesn't even get alloy wheels, no roof rails, it gets a reversing camera but that will cost you $15,000 over the price of a LS-M MU-X, nuts.  :tool:

Parko96:
Wow the Crusade is first car I have seen with a built in 220v power inverter.

And $60,000 for the GLX you still get no DRL's.

And where are the heated mirrors?

I was actually expecting them to be much more expensive, for a Toyota they are well priced.
