This car is not of the quality of the Triton. It says it has a 3 tonne towing capacity. Maybe it has but that is at about 60kph. The inside is cheap without any extras. The tray is tiny and is good for mum to do the shopping. Avoid this car.

I am looking at towing a double horse float with a ute. The Hilux is way out of my price range and I am not too fussed by the egg-shaped Triton. Anyone out there using a 4×4 Dmax for towing, and can you comment on handling with standard suspension? I am told to avoid Navara, Ranger and Mazda. Is this good advice? Looking forward to hearing some wisdom.

We have always had the Hilux 4×4 twin cab, and never been able to fault it. In the process of purchasing a caravan and need 3 ton towing capacity, which even the new Hilux doesn’t have. We are looking at the D Max and would love some extra insite.

I with you mate, I purchased a D-Max in Jan this year and have just clock 10,000k, My wife and I have had more fun in this 4WD then any other vechicle we have owned. I cannot fault the D-max in anyway.

I have just purchased a D-Max and I cannot fault this thing in anyway. Regardless of what I do in it or to it, it just keeps on going.

I have a grey (looks great) duel cab 4×4.

Totally amazing. Any questions from people here please thrwo them at me!
