I bought a new 2019 Holden Colorado dual cab tray back in the fire sale in March 2020. I live on acreage so it’s handy for that. I’m not a tradie it stays on the blacktop. I regularly pick up the granddaughters up from school. I put some marine carpet in the tray to stop the school bags from sliding around. The kids tie them down. The point is, I get good use from the Ute unlike most suits in utes. It only cost me $34k , it came with Apple car play and digital speedo so I don’t feel I’m missing out. How prices have risen in only 18 months. Great video by the way.
Nedahl is such a breath of fresh air. Fantastic to see her reviewing utes which you typically see guys reviewing, and ticked all boxes about real world stuff where it matters more of the time than not. Awesome work!! :)
The 58990 price was a promo deal which Isuzu would probably planned pre-covid. I'm kicking myself that I didn't get it as they are now 71k or more drive away.
The value winner is the GWM Cannon X $43,000 and it does everything you need. Condition being it has 400nm of torque so I would buy the less luxurious Hilux If you were towing a big toy just for the 500nm
@@Gix321 I'm one of the sceptics on the merging Chinese brand but they are selling in huge numbers it took the maps in the 60s and the Koreans in the 80s about 15 years to gain serous trackion in our market the Chinese got there in a couple of years I don't believe there bad
I too was in the market for a new ute and test drove the Isuzu D-Max..Sure, it's all fairly nice and all, however a continual rattle from both the roof (speakers integrated into the headlining) and B-pillar soon put me off. Then I jumped into the Ssangyong Musso and was immediately impressed with solid build and very nice interior. All for 47K drive away! Put down a deposit that same day.
@@TheHayabusa09 the new Musso actually looks pretty good. I'd still go with the dmax though. Korean cars are pretty impressive. I do like those Kia Stingers for a weekender maybe
The thing I don’t like about the Mazda BT-50 is that it has a 3 litre engine, but for some reason, I don’t quite understand; it only has four cylinders. It should have six cylinders.
@@DaveDVideoMaker it's the future, sadly. It's not pointless with today's technology and big 4 cylinders existed previously in sportscars too (eg Porsche 968).
@@nessuno5403 They’ve actually done 3-litre 4-cylinder engines since the first generation Isuzu D-Max, and that was from 2002, so it’s not really the future.
@@DaveDVideoMaker obviously the market accepts and buys them. A 2002 donk is not comparable to a 2021 rendition. I don't support this path, I just said it's the dumb downsizing forced by environmentalists.

Fair comparison would be the GT against the x terrain. You put the second bottom mazda against the top dmax.
And it still came out on top.

Nedahl's overlay image at 0:08 is so poorly cropped... still using only MS Paint? (2:30am video editing?)
Yeah I was gonna offer to Photoshop it for them hahaha
Both win
Da,they are identical despite the looks
😊 I choose the Isuzu DMax
I enjoyed watching the Video. Both are very good
Your last review price of Isuzu X terrain is 58,990$ drive away and after 3 months the price is changed to $63,990. It’s beat price on cost
Global supply shortage and likely introductory pricing 3 months ago xterrain is 75k in nz
The 58990 price was a promo deal which Isuzu would probably planned pre-covid.
I'm kicking myself that I didn't get it as they are now 71k or more drive away.
So really the winner in the end is Isuzu
Have a 2017 bt50
Have the arb ome bp51 suspension. Every vehicle should have it.
Complete overkill for the vast majority of people.
Should of compared the BT-50 GT or Thunder instead of mid range
Hey...cause u a Chic I went straight past..
CANT RELY ON CHICS OPINIONS 😁😎😎🇦🇺🇦🇺
why didnt you review the GT ? way more comparable
Excellent, well made comparison!
Who would have thought work orientated Ute's would have the title ' family Ute's compared '.
They are the replacement wagons now because they carry everything and go anywhere it’s only natural

Only if you want a piece of crap built in China that will fall apart within 5 years.
The base model dmax is miles better than any GWM and cheaper

Welcome to downsizing to make tree huggers happy

Just another Ute...meh. Pay more for less.
