Well ok, but not exactly a glowing endorsement is it.

I've got the 4x4 extra cab 3ltr Vigo, great pick-up and gets used off road all the time so it has off road tyres.

The only thing wrong (for me) with this pick-up is the lack of a windscreen demister, which is very much needed when it rains or at night during the cool season up here in the mountains.

I like the new gold series D-Max (has a screen demister) and the interior is very plush, but doesn't drive as well as the Vigo, the suspension feels too soft, so the cab rolls too much for my likeing.

Edit

Expat motors in Bangkok can add the screen demister, but I live right up north so can't really be bothered to drive down to Bangkok to have it fitted. Anyone know of a good outfit in Chiang Mai who can fit them?
