thaicruze Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) Went to the dealer in front of my house. Within 10 minutes I had 3 guys from some dealer wanting to buy my Cruze. We argued that we didn't want to now. We were just looking. They offered 600,000. No. They said it could be more. They wouldn't leave it alone. Then we took the Dmax for a drive. Things I like: It's tall. Very tall. The brakes are great. Stops on a dime. Steering is precise. Where the love stops: Engine is really loud when you step on it. The interior looks cheap. But worst of all, it's like driving a trampoline down the road. Bouncing up and down and left and right every which way. We felt like we were inside a dryer tumbling around. We couldn't wait to get back to the Cruze. I don't think I'm a Pickup guy. I can't see myself commuting on that. Either Pajero or a sedan. No pickups.

hansnl Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) Now then, it is classified as a truck, so it should drive like a truck, feel like a truck. On the other hand, 200-300 kilo in the back will work wonders. The engine is 3 litres and a diesel, so bound to be noisier.

thaicruze Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) Ahhh. So now Isuzu is crap. Is it because I drove it? I guess everything is crap if I drive it. Before the Dmax was a favorite on here. Now, it's the bottom of the barrel. Which one do you suggest? Don't tell me. FORD? What is it with Englishmen and Fords?

No. Because a week or so ago I asked you guys "is the Dmax just a rebadged Colorado?" And YOU people said "NO". I can copy the quote if you want to. So now what?

thaicruze Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 Here it is. So before it was a favorite. Now it isn't. Weird. Funny thing was, the sales girl showed us her car. White Cruze. Parked next to the test drive Dmax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And maybe the Diesel Engines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaicruze Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) So two of you bought one and couldn't believe it. I saw 8 on my way home today. 1 in my parking lot at the school. 3 going to pick up my wife. 2 going to my house. 2 at the Index Mall next to mine. I take pictures of them once in a while. Yesterday this one was next to me with the custom lights so I took a pic The car is a huge hit here. Maybe you forgot this is about the Dmax? Why do you people always have to talk about the Cruze? It's like you're obsessed. Edited November 14, 2012 by thaicruze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
