Second Hand Pick up Trucks to buy

[stupidfarang]

Hi, want to buy a second hand truck, I think it would be best to buy from a dealership like Toyota Sure for peace of mind as I know the pickup trucks do get a hard life in Thailand. My question is "do any other manufactures like Isuzu, Nissan etc have a second hand sales system like Toyota Sure? Cannot find anything on google.

Also were is the best place to buy?

You might find your post will get more answers if you put or ask the mods to change it to Motoring section.

Also be a good idea if you stated where you are situated.

Well, in the long run...it would be better to buy a new one.. it is throwing the dice.. some ok, some a money pit.

Mitsubishi has Diamond Second Hand outlets.

Nissan also has certified second hand outlets and so does Isuzu.

I was advised to buy new as second hand prices are high and pick ups take a hammering in the country. We eventually settled for the new Izuzu 1.9

Yes the pick ups do have a hard life in Thailand and it is a throw of the dice, yet I know there are many owned by westerners that are hardly used and with a friend paying over 1 million bhat for his isuzu 2 years ago and it is only worth around 500,000 bhat now, he is not happy. There is an over supply of trucks now. If I was to buy second hand then I would want to do it via Toyota Sure or another manufacturers outlet with a warranty.

One thing to look at with 2nd hand is the spec, many do not have Air-bags or ABS

I find it hard to believe a 1 million baht new, 2 year old isuzu pick up is only worth 500,000 baht, unless of course its done high milage and abused, a member on here sold a 5 year or so model on here for a high 500,000 baht figure, more likely to be 700,000 baht plus

Yep, a 2014 top spec V-cross Auto 4x4 is going for 700-800K, depending on KM's and condition. 500K sounds more like the lowest of lowball trade in offers

so true, amazing how the cars have less spec than in the west especially safety spec, drove the wifes sisters new Toyota Revo pickup last month, I was driving as always told the family in the back seat to put their seat belts on, but there were no seat belts! Was shocked. Toyota do not put seat belts in a brand new pick up!

If it was an extra space cab, not a 4 door, then no. They are not supposed to have passengers in the back. Few in LOS would take notice though.

Take a look at Kaidee..Most of them are private seller or small time buy/sell people..If you are thinking of buying from like Toyota sure, it will be better to buy a new car.

Same with our last pickup. Ford did fit seat belts when requested.

Thank you for the tip, never heard of Kaidee before, looks like a good site

If you want a fairly late model, I too would advise to to buy a new one. There are far too many late model vehicles that have had serious damage from accidents.

That's why Ford are the only serious option here.

Let me guess, you have one. You know you don't get a commission if someone else buys one?
