[swinny]

Been looking at some 4x4 vehicles

 

Specifcally the izuzu rodeo 2.5 and the ford ranger 2.5 2010-2013 models

 

Anyone had either and can shed some light on them?

Cheers in advance

Anyone? Kind of a pressing matter lol

Both good trucks I believe, but hold fire for a more concise answer.

I trailed both for a week at a time and the Toyota.

We eventually went for Navara's.

The Isuzu was better than the Ford,but a bit plasticky.

Navara( accenta) was just nicer to drive,stronger,more bhp,better standard extras.

Only thing I've changed on it are the headlight bulbs,higher wattage ones fitted.

It's on 120,000 miles still going strong.

What year navara and prices?

Mines an 11 plate,with snug top back on in grey.was about £12,000 when new but company bought 10 of em which is why they were cheap.

Came with climate control,Bluetooth,alloys ect as standard.

I think out of all of them i tried the Toyota was the best but came in the most basic spec,when you started adding bits to bring it up to the same level of spec the price got too high.

The Rodeo was ok ,just not as good as the Navara imo.

The ford was agricultural in comparison was due for a major update,which i think they did the next year,not driven one of the new ones.

Test drive a few see what you think.

Hi chief, I've just bought an 08 , plate one just waiting for delivery, anyway I've heard good things about the rodeos, fuel consumption is pretty good and from the 07 plates onward they have cam chains not belts,

I used to drive ranger when with commission, th at was a while ago and the rangers were quite thirsty, though I would think spares would be cheaper for the Ford.
