ilikethai Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 The boss at home wants a Nissan Terra 4x4 but I told her to go with another Mux but 1.9L 4x2. We had tested both of the MUX months ago and yesterday the Terra. The Mux it's 1 yr newer, 3.0L, and very conservative styling. The Terra has a muscular and modern look, a very good car, faster and quieter than the Mux and surprising smoother than MUX(?). The only thing MUX is missing that she wants is a surround view camera system which I don't blame her since it's a big car. The Terra has almost everything but I heard Nissan might come out with a new generation Terra since it's sharing with Mitsubishi and the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport next generation is coming out in 2022-2023. Imagine buying the current Terra and few more yrs from now there's a new generation Terra. I know it's somewhat a personal question but how bad is this waiting going to be? Anybody know. Chip shortage? Or a Isuzu scarcity stunt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not in the market anymore I'll keep my truck but I have driven many a Nissan and never been disappointed. Nowadays I would decide more on looks than to be bothered by what make is the best. Vehicles became so much reliable years and years ago. Lucky are the ones who got the Chevi SUV's at half price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinny41 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I would look closely at the manfacture year of the Nissan Terra there has been at least 2/3 model changes in the past 3 years, this time last year Nissan was offering 250,000-300,000 baht discount to shift current stock which does have an impact on used prices 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MrJ2U Posted December 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2021 I enjoy my Nissan Terra. Nice and big, comfortable. We use on adventures all over Asia, mainly Thailand since the pandemic. I put a covered luggage compartment on top to make more room for the family. No problems so far, 2018. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mrbojangles Posted December 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2021 I bought a brand new Terra 7 months ago. I've never owned a Nissan before and I shopped and shopped around looking at Mitsubishi, MG, Isuzu, Fortuna etc but taking everything into account I opted for the Terra and I love it. I regularly drive from Patters to Chaiyaphum, so I can attest that it is great to drive both long journey's and around town. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinRacing Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Both Nissan and Isuzu are inferior cars compared with a few in their class. Currently best made Japanese car is Mazda. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the camera and two chrome add ons. Don't get the camera, you can purchase a cheaper and better one from Shoppee or Amazon. I got the 4 wheel drive also.

The 360-degree Surround View Monitor (AVM) was installed in all VL models since 2019, initally you coulld only view camera through rear view mirror , Nissan provided at cost upgrade at some point where you could view through both rear view mirror and the entertainment display unit. Some people choose to install aftermarket cameras that allow you to both view 360 and record 360 useful if some decides to key your car Edited December 26, 2021 by vinny41 typo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have to buy this previous update Terra and just install an aftermarket power tailgate but then my Mux power tailgate sometimes it doesn't close properly.

Are youi buying a 2022 vehicle that hasn't been built yet or are you buying a 2022 vehicle that was built in 2021 you know when you come to resell there is a big price difference between a vehicle built in 2021 and a vehicle built in 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with a manual tailgate with the gas charged self raising lifts/struts....Less to break & trouble free....Click the remote & start the raise slightly - let it swing up.... Unless you're always going to be opening carrying 2 babies or 2 full shopping bags.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
