Hi Locky,

What type of Hilux (eg. engine) are you comparing to ?

I'm a newbie to, so welcome anyway.

Hey Daryn,
i was comparing to the D4D i think the DiD has much more pull when the turbo kicks in ( and the triton has a better interior)

Hi Locky and welcome to the site.
Very interesting that you reckon it's got more grunt than the D4D and a better interior :o
What year Lux was it, was it an SR5 or just an SR :?:

One of the few add-ons that may increase your resale. :lol: :lol: (if the buyer doesn't look under the bonnet)
I'd rather have a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal labotomy!
