Advice on choosing

[Challenger]

im in de market for a new van 4x2 manual was lookin at either the new dmax or the navara. do u guys have any advice or suggestions open to other brands if properly justified. jus lookin for reliability and good allround service. if you guys have any pricing wud be helpful

i already know the price of the dmax (182k)
and navara (se 180k) (le 192k)

resale value would be better on the nav.

Only heard bad reviews from first hand Dmax owners, enough to generally discourage me from getting one.

like what VexXx?

[VexXx Dogg]

@Paul, mostly suspension issues, such as OEM shocks and bushings that can't handle rough roads. A couple mentioned really clunky gears and noisy engines.

I know the Nav has its own set of complaints but at the end of the day, the Nav will be a faster resell.

[Paullct]

Good to know. Hadn't heard anything bad about the Dmax until now.

[Challenger]

but are u guys referring to the older model having these issues or the new one??

agree with dieselburner.....hav my toyota hilux 4*2 almost a year n half now doing 41000km. best buy i ever made.

Navara gets my vote

[Preludeman1]

If ur looking to buy it for leisure, buy the hilux bro, your mind at ease, no problems at all, BUT if ur buying a truck as a work vehicle and can sacrifice the bells and whistles, i HIGHLY recommend a frontier, parts are easy to get and not expensive, neal and massy still sells em. They are really reliable, just look at wasa's fleet, they get really abused! They had plenty navaras and now they only buyin frontiers!
I have a frontier, well maintained, 10 years old.... Haven't changed any parts as yet!

My Nav havent had any complaints since i got it from the firm 4X2 SE . Maintained every 5K and never had an issue .

If i were you get the 4X2 LE

the hilux is the best bet in terms of resale and reliability..!

[Preludeman1]
