    Had my Isuzu held out long enough, I was waiting for these to hit the shores to give them a serious look. I love the idea of a diesel in a compact truck.

    I like it because it's an old school styled truck.. and the fact that it has a diesel engine.

    I'm sure this thing is built much tougher than our vanilla grade tacoma, both 1st and 2nd gens and probably the Tundra as well... Hilux? that's different...

    Do some reading. Every article that I've read mentions that the specs will be different for U.S. bound trucks.

    Engine specs for us are on the second page here: http://www.mahindrana.com/pdf/specsheet.pdf

    But adding Tranny fluid to the oil gives you like an additional 25hp!

    You realize Kia is Hyundai right and they've been putting out some really good stuff as of late.

    Hyundai now is what Toyota used to be. The underdog. Crappy little cars that just keep running and are actually well made.



    Cept it's a Hyundai.



    Hell, I remember my sister's Hyundai Pony. Fucking thing came with a choke you had to pull out to start it and push in when it was going. HA!

    useful trucks in every other country look like this, when they build a truck they build them to last and to get the job done, not to appeal to mall crawlers. look at the hilux.
