The 3.2 Dilemma. Ranger or BT-50?

[Skyboogie]

Well, it's done. The Mazda dealer brought in another finance company, no thai guarantor required.

Thanks for all your help.

bought my mazda bt-50 3.2 auto in may 2012. ordered in April and got it 5 weeks later. Never had ay problems and think it is great,. Never considered a ranger as I like the looks of the mazda . the ranger looks very ordinary to me if you look from the back, if it was not for the big writing you not know what it was. If I was looking for a new pickup now I think I wait for the Toyota as they have lost a lot of ground in the last few years and I think the replacement will be a good one.

Lost ground, well the sales data would suggest otherwise, Toyota is still the big daddy of 1 ton pickup trucks here. I 'll stick with my 5 year old Hilux thanks.

I wanted a truck now so I got the Mazdarati. If they launched the new Hilux in 2014, I would have gotten that for sure. I am a Toyota believer.

I think he means in terms of styling, engine, safety and so on, not sales......

Yep, I kinda knew that, the 874 bods who purchased a Mazda truck in November must be very astute.

Just because more Whoppers get sold than Luger Burgers, doesn't mean they are better burgers.

On a serious note. Toyota and Isuzu are monsters. I wonder how how many are fleet sales.

[Skyboogie]

Toyota sold almost as many Hiluxes-is-s'? in March as Mazda did for the YTD. That's crazy.

not really if one considers the bulk of them would be the low spec two door MT's

To me, her face isn't as important as her ability to cook. Which truck makes the better lasagna?

The lasagna is the same it's just the bowls are different
