before all the hilux cult get in, we have 9 tritons at work, the first of the 2.4 one has a aussie quick spray unit mounted on it, it weighs 3.089t full, that truck works on many mine sites and has now done 230k, only had one rear wheel bearing just recently, standard front suspension, hd rear springs. now the kun hilux that had a lighter unit it replaced didnt even make it to 100k without needing (its a long list), 3 front diffs, 1 hd clutch,so many rear wheel bearings i lost count, steering rack, 4 front wheel bearings, injectors, rear diff, multiple ujs, cvs, front shocks and im sure im missing things. same drivers but we take the triton worse places offroad because it loves it. we do allot less repairs on the tritons than the hiluxs they replaced ( i know because i fix them). and if ya thinking we should get rangers, we dont own a transport trailer to get them off the side of the road.

The days of Hilux's being the top small diesel ute ended with the KZN series. Back when towing anything over 1600kg legally and safely was considered impressive. I think the Triton has been a quiet achiever for a long time. MK diesels all the way through. Mitsubishi seem to rectify weak points and honour warranty as good as anyone.

I bit the bullet an got the MV GLS after all the PR hype Mitsubishi were putting out there and I was pleasantly surprised. I have done a 2" lift with 32" tyres and bar work..... nothing crazy but drives great and is awesome offroad. Downsides? turning traction control off in 4wd hi is a pain in the ass (endless scrolling through menus involved). Also the driver monitoring system is the worst thing known to mankind (how Jesse put up with it in this video is beyond me) I turn it off on every drive because it so annoying.

After deciding not to jump into a next gen Ranger from my PX3 ranger, I copped a new MV GSR. Loving the underdog, sad the new model is kinda being slept on. I've had more questions and interests from clients i visit each day about the MV compared to when I had the Ranger. There is genuine interest out there for these, and they shouldn't be overlooked. Not a Triton tragic by any means, but I do not regret the purchase. I had no expectations for these (after owning an MQ and absolutely hating it), only a few boxes to tick, it did that and more surprisingly. There are a few reviews online that don't do these things justice sadly, but I get a sense those reviewers are paid by other brands, sometimes it's blatantly obvious. Are these things perfect - No. Do they have everything - No. Would I buy another - Yep! Strange to admit that, but they are a significant leap ahead of the MQ/MR model and definitely a solid option to a Ranger, which costs more anyway. But as I always say, ignore the online videos and reviews and drive one in person - some dealers will let you take one for 24 hours.....

Hey guys, the gear ratios have not changed in the auto model they are exactly the same as the MR same as the diff ratios. Was you referring to the manual gear ratios when you mentioned they changed ? Cheers!

Very interesting review. The older Tritons were always underrated. What is your take on them not having Superselect anymore? According to me that was a great systest.

Like any new dual/single cab utes it need time to break in to really see where it sits in the eco system of the market. The fact its price is near level with most other models it’s got a high bar to meet, where’s your previous models it’s was a bang for buck, paid what you get workhorse type. AdBlue personally is a real nuisance and worse if you can’t up level the capacity if you plan to go more remote. By the end of the day it’s still cheaper than hilux and ranger so it’s got that going for it at least (ain’t counting dmax with that statement). I saw this that the recent National 4x4 show in Melbourne when Opposite lock was showcasing their new bulbar for it, it does help a bit with that hideous bulldog face, and honestly it could still do what many have done to the older tritons, just more for either the retires with towing, or new drivers that wants a brand new Ute but on the low end of the spectrum in terms of cost.

I think the new MV ticks a lot of boxes for towing and touring and certainly be on the shopping list. As an owner of a Dmax Xterrain for 3.5 years and 77000kms towing a lot. The Dmax has been impressive. But I was expecting a bit more than what’s been offered in the 2024 Dmax. Sorry, but I’m a bit disappointed in Isuzu.

Mate... they don't do recalls to make the driver monitoring system "even better" (9:96) .... they do recalls because the system is Faulty, not because they want to make it even better. There is a big difference between the two.

I've got a 2005 Triton V6 highride dual cab 2 wheel drive with a tradie box on it which I bought in Townsville back in 2019 and its been a great car even took it of road through a couple of creek's and small sand dunes and it went well , just let the tyre pressure down. It was even better to drive than my mate's 4x4 ranger and out performed it!

Why does the older one look newer than the newer version…
@einfelder82623 ай бұрын
Anyone thinking of towing 3.5 ton with this should study GVM, GCM, axle load front/rear, payload before hooking up. Because as soon as you put some proper tyres on, fill up with fuel, put a bull bar and winch on, put some stuff in the tray under the canopy and load up at least one passenger you may find you are over the limits. Check carefully because policing of these weights is intense, and if you crash while over you will still get weighed and your insurance company will walk away.

16:30 no, you can't tow 3.5 tonne, you have the capacity for a 3.5 tonne tow depending on your GVM, ATM and GCM. GVM + ATM must never exceed GCM.
