UGLY,  windows too small for the bulky body, headlights small and look outdated to newer car model lights.

Hate paying for the Badge

This Pickups, Benz, Toyota or what else are ugly as Hell.....beware.

They are about as generic as they come.

Will the new owners automatically attain hiso status for owning a BENZ? Will they have the right to say "Do you know who I am"? when pulled up at a crackdown checkpoint.

Another car for the big insecure egos.

 

One of my "friends" on Koh Samui bought a Ford Ranger, latest model 3.2 l engine.

Yet 3.2 and how many horse power isn't enough for him, he wants to change a module in the engine to get even more horse power. Asked what for, you're only driving on Samui, never have to go any further than 40 km the most. His answer: I just like to feel the power. Haaa ?

I have one of these ugly ones and I'm very happy with it.

Who cares ?

All seem to be 4-door pseudo pickups (taxed like cars).

So not even a big advantage regarding load.

Even loading a scooter might be difficult?

A mystery to me who will pay a premium for that.

 

Now wait for the Benz look-alike pimping for Nissan Navara :biggrin:

From this.

 

"It’s not every day we get a brand new -class of Merc, is it? Particularly in an all-new market sector for the brand. So you probably won’t be surprised to learn that Mercedes has cheated.

 

The X-class is not only based on the latest Nissan NP300 Navara, introduced in 2016, it will be built by Nissan for Mercedes in the Navara factory in Spain."

 

"At launch, however, the X-class will be powered by a pair of 2.3-litre four-cylinder diesels, and both of these are Nissan units."

 

Some Merc parts have been scavenged to de-Nissan the interior though.

 

"The Mercedes parts bin helps – the dials are C-class, elements of the centre console, including the floating screen, come from the V-class; at 8.4 inches across with the optional COMAND Online infotainment system, this is the biggest screen in this mid-size pickup sector (you get a 7.0-inch unit as standard)."

How do you make that assessment without being able to see inside or under the bonnet, Thaivisa poster x-ray eyes?

The " hand strap " or whatever you call it ,  what the passenger usually holds onto is on the left side as you look at the vehicles. So if the passenger is sat there , I am assuming the driver sits in the other seat.  Or is that Just Weird ?

Agreed a Pickup is not the most aesthetically pleasing vehicle in the world but they just work and are fit for purpose . . . Simple !
