I only have a 4 banger, but it is still,the best 4WD I have ever owned! I will only own Amarok from now on. I hope to get a V6 next time. I doubt I will ever want one that has been tainted by Ford.

Interesting you can lock the rear but effectively have a LSD in the centre (torsen) that you can’t lock. The torque is really good, but without low range to multiply it, it’s less than the competition. There is a lot to like. But unless you’re happy to add a transfer case, there is no simple mod path to make this a true off-roader. Okay for the worksite, nice to drive, good at the lights. But overall, hard pass from me.

V6 still the best engine of any of the basic utes. the Ford 2.0l is rubbish, the Toyota 2.8 is rubbish, all of the small 4 pot diesels are rubbish, except the 4JJ Isuzus.

I don't understand people's obsession with diesel engines. They're less reliable, pretty expensive to run and difficult to work on (depends on the engine and the vehicle), and (usually) very noisy. Apart from towing ability and fuel economy, I just don't see the benefit of diesel engines over petrol engines.

Get a Highline then, bi xenon headlights with LED daytime running lights. Or if you want to save money then get a set of LED globes and swap them out

What are you some kind of inner city weekend latte warrior or what ? Harden up man ! and apart from that - thank you for a good video !
