    i think your actually a closet triton fan.

    On a still not very serious note I had a look at the new triton yesterday. First time Iv thought a new model was an overall improvement, though that could say more about the last one than the new. Power/torque 135kw/437nm are up, 25% more torque at 1500rpm, kept the great tuning circle and even made an attempt to increase exit angle. Kept the 10 year drivetrain warranty,defiantly looks better and will probly still be the cheapest

    They are value for money, no question. I seriously thought about it last year when looking to upgrade my Landcruiser. Almost signed the dotted line on a new Triton with all the gear strapped on it. I just couldn't get over the idea that they are pretty damned ugly! Haha.

    Then I found another Landcruiser and went with that instead, pleased I did in the end, very hard to go past a Landcruiser in my experience, however --- they're not a ute are they.

    Had a sniff at the new model Triton yesterday, they do look a bit better than the older model.

    One thing I do like about driving a Landcruiser though, is unlike almost every other 4wd on the road, there's not literally dozens of trucks the same passing you everyday. Sh*t I see some Hilux's and Rangers and Tritons on the roads down here. Like to be a bit different

    A bit like saying Bett Midler is better looking than Susan Boyle though eh

    Ha, something like that. Although there are some creatures uglier than Susan roaming the streets down here I can tell you...
