Isuzu is the grandfather for all

I chose the MUX and it’s a great vehicle. Bulletproof!

Isuzu is the king of diesel engines.

I am a little bit shocked because all other motoring journalists normally would choose the Fortuner. I do have a question, however: have you driven them on gravel roads? THAT would have been an eye opener because the Toyota has never been able to compete with any Isuzu product in that regard - roadholding, comfort, safety etc. Thanks for a refreshingly different and honest review!!!

I choose MUX without a doubt and second thoughts

@FrankypankyV8 11 months ago

I had a 2024 Mux on holiday in Thailand...Really enjoyed that car, it was a big step up from my Kia Venga back at home. The Toyota is rather overrated due to it's age.

Isuzu it is!

Dave is just naturally funny and silly. No acting. No trying to be someone else. Just himself. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I've said it before.

I had the isuzu and sold it because of the gearbox hunting between 4,5,6 and in manual it will still kick back for the smallest uphill

I had a 2024 Fortuner. It gave me so much electrical issues I had to sell it. The dealership staff laughed at me… they said they’re happy I sold the car because they also didn’t know what was wrong and was tired of me bringing it back. Yeah. I paid for a top spec Fortuner and was laughed

Isuzu wins on looks

@mayormsuthu1465 1 year ago

Isuzu is the better car here just that most of us likes the Toyota more. But the senseful choice is the Isuzu it also looks good and it's just R27k difference in prices.

@nhlakaniphomiya380 1 year ago

That MUX Onyx....woooow🔥🔥🔥

@boirampai7404 1 year ago

The Isuzu consumption figures are really impressive 👌🏿👌🏿

My third Toyota (2 Fortuners) and am always smiling when trading it in for another Toyota, compared to other brands that always left me appaled by the trade in value.
