My Hilux fish tails like crazy when you push it in bends – especially when wet. This should be standard feature in all pick ups. It is in Aus, Uk and Thailand tapi kat Malaysia kita macam anak tiri bro.

Still waiting. SA says coming soon but I know better. Apparently they have stopped taking orders for this model in Malaysia. The Ford Rayong plant in Thailand have problems filling orders from Australia and Thailand as the demand was overwhelming. Orders backed up due to the 2011 flood. Lets hope quality don’t suffer. But if you check the Aussie forums and consumer reviews, they love this 3.2 Ranger and not many major problems.

There are a few Wildtraks on the road in KL but mostly the Orange one. My SA asked me a couple of weeks back if I wanted this one but I stuck to white. How to go offroading in an orange lah….. Not cool. White also not the best color but no choice. Malaysians get stuck with Orange and White only – what a rip off. Ford Malaysia, dengar in tak?

If you can wait 1 year then wait lor….. But if in a hurry, they Colorado is a pretty decent truck too.

White colour n manual transmission. Very good car compared to my previous Frontier. Very smooth when speeding at 150 kmh. very strong in mud n sand surface. I went to seashore at bukit keluang and felt very surprise with its horse power. One thing to remember..don’t fill up with petronas diesel coz commonrail engine hates petronas diesel.

You should come here and see for yourself the road conditions. Then you know why Sarawakians drives pick ups and SUV. We simply need them for long distance driving. If you most residence here (pure Sarawak residence) would usually have a pick up or SUV park in there home. Normal cars would not last long in our roads. It will if you use mostly in the city but even the roads in the city are not that smooth.

Then you will know why Pickup/Utes are popular.

The rich Sibu folks will most likely have a Ninja King parked in their Garage (Cygnus 420d/Lexus 470/570)

Went to Puchong branch and the lady sales rep is not knowledgeable and scold by her. No mood already. I call Seri Kembangan Ford and test drive the 2.2 auto recently. A good car but only problem is not stable when speed reached above 120km compared with my Triton. Another problem, according to the manager, change engine oil cost about RM700 for 10K km. i email to Ford Malaysia and got no reply…
