    I have one as a work vehicle and have to turn the lane departure "Grandma grabs the wheel" feature off every time I start it up
    Don't forget the AI that is as smart as a retarded child which brakes randomly for things that it thinks look scary, often with no warning

    I hate my DMax with a passion and curse it every day but with free diesel on a 2 hour commute I suck it up

    Mate of mine has run D Max for years. Until he retired recently he did a lot of DOC contracts and also hunting. He tows a big boat and works them hard but always services on time. A suggestion no matter what you get Thar, consider putting a catch can on the engine to prevent carbon build up in your EGR valve and inlet manifold. Good luck with your decision.

    Used to be just the small wiene guys drove them, now every second builder has one or their coming out of the closet. At 120k they make a top end Hilux or Ranger look reasonable.
