I remember my old boy getting a musso back in '05. for the price he paid, he got 300,000kms and 10 years out of it. Taught me how to drive in it and everything. it died slowly after the 8 year mark, but for a 4x4 under $30k you cant beat that. The worst part about it is listening to Hilux and Ranger owners talk with their heads up their own arses.
A Musso is a car, not a ute.
@@Senkino5o Wrong, it's designated a Ute, (Utility vehicle), in Australia, or a Pick up in the US. It''s brand, or correct name is Ssangyong Rexton for 'its SUV line, and Musso for the pick up variant. Thank you, your welcome...
@@Senkino5o I’ve just bought a new face lifted Musso 2021 and you know what? It’s the best CAR that I’ve ever owned(I’ve owned Veloster
@@davidhamilton506 Designate it how you want, no one who uses a ute for actual work uses a Musso. Prove me wrong.
@@Senkino5o Hold on a sec, you're saying that all those customers who has purchased a Ssangyong Rexton Musso Ute/Pick Up, do not use it for work? Are you serious? I've a neighbour, a "Tradie", down the end of my street, has one and uses it for work every day. Sorry to say, but I do not have to prove you wrong, when my own eyes do it for me. Anyhow enough said, enjoy the remains of your day, cheers...
I've been driving Ssangyongs for the last 8 years and just bought another one last week, because you stick with something that you know is good.
So I test driven the Musso and despite all the perceived negative comments I did not feel uncomfortable with any of the performances. I bought one the same day and am impressed with the safety and comfort experienced. Pulling a caravan does provide a more valid load test and such an experience would put the Musso in a good spot. Never understood why this assessment was not included in the review?
Now after 2 nearly two years of driving the Musso and crossing the Nulllabor with a 1.8 tome Caravan, followed by a 12000km trip to Darwin and the rugged Kimberly with a three tome caravan I can confirm the Musso can do it. The only thing that I missed under certain conditions was a few more "horses" under the bonnet. This was apparent when experiencing strong headwinds over long distances travelling in the outback. I often had to trim the travel speed down to 80 - 85 km/hour to keep the engine out of extreme strain and fuel consumption (26ltr/100km). I must stress that travelling under normal conditions the Musso moves comfortably at a 100km/hr using an average of 17-18 ltr/100km. I spoke on the trips with many campers with other vehicles and their experiences were not much different even with bigger engines. I have now 70000km on the clock with most of it doing it tough but so far it shows no signs of fatigue.
you're full of it.
@@lobsterwhisperer7932 Why. I drive one and it does what I want
Karl hows the car been? Any issues? Im thinking of getting one
Musso is my top 2 options when I finally buy a 'ute' in about 12 months.
The looks of the SsangYong have improved immensely but they still managed to tack on some fugly with that sports bar effect.
I have just bought a Musso 66 plate. Drives beautifully , drives like a car. I’m so impressed. It has a the lid on it and looks awesome. Tows my horse trailer without a problem uphill. It has surprised me
Reading these comments by Musso owners is very helpful, it seems like these are a pretty good car
For me, it’s the best car that I’ve ever driven
-2021 a new face lifted Musso owner-
If I had the money to buy one of these 2 it would be the musso and my wife found it easier to get in and out of when looking at them at are local dealers as she is disabled
Why didn't test them to go off road while carrying the 510 kg pallet?
I own a 2020 musso XLV long wheel base which has the largest tray in this segment. It has leaf springs and is rated to carry 1050kg and tow 3500kg combined.
It tows my caravan of 3000kg with ease and has the same engine out put as the tritan.
I paid $34 000 on the road with tow bare and tray cover along with all the extras over a tritan.
I drove both utes and more and found the musso to be the better ute over the tritan and the best ute over all for bang for your buck.
Have you had any problem with musso frank?
Damn frank, you've almost sold the bloody vehicle to me... what a deal, really.
Happy motoring!
The Musso loses on Resale, so if you buy one keep it till it's dead!
Not everyone wants a monster truck for small business or pleasure . the reason i bought a short wheel base Musso is due to it's 5.1 meter length . You can actually park it in Australian car park . All the others stick out 300mm and you don't need a ladder to get your gear out of the tub .
The longer wheel-based Musso with its suspension sorted out for local conditions would be a winner for me. 18” wheels with more rubber (higher profile tyres) would be a good start 👍🏽
would have really liked to have seen the Triton take a greater pay load than 510 KG just to see how it reacts to it too, but it is nice to see an you keep an even playing field.
I purchased my musso in 2005 still have it and still going strong have driven it like it was stolen from day 1 can still go to Brisbanr from Sydney on 1 tank. I dont think I could buy anything else considering the run I have had out of this old girl and I will most likely retire her down to the farm, so I guess that means I will be I will be buying myself a new musso very soon.
You should!!
I’ve just bought it 2 weeks ago and I fell in love with it off the bat and straight away
It’s just a mind blowing solid machine
Not to mention it’s the best looking Ute in the market(I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder)
SsangYong Musso
The Musso looks way better! What I took from this review is a Musso long wheel base with leaf suspension, off road tyres and 4x4 iron man lift kit make it the better ute. The new MY20.5 ELX XLV Musso has leaf suspension and limited slip diff.
A lot of utes are sold to people who don’t really need a Ute.
They don’t tow or carry huge weight. This includes Ranger and Lux owners too.
This Musso has a readymade market. Priced well and looks good. I reckon they will sell 2500 in the first year. Providing the dealers do the right thing and they prove to be reliable, sales will double the year after.
That’s my prediction.
LDV had there chance but they haven’t managed it well enough.
Hi what the deffrent between GWC Ute and LDV t60 ute and the Korean ute Musso thanks
to compare for dual cap & chassis tray, triton(only 1 model)37k vs musso(long wheel base/middle option)47k. Ssangyoung charges $4700 for chassis tray and $2500 for triton...
Took them both for a test drive.. musso is incredible although really needs a longer tray with leaf springs.. might wait and see what they can bring
There's a long bed model with leaf springs in Korea. Hope it reaches Australia!
@@dsgrts it's already here and about to be released for sale
its call XLV as an optional for extra 300mm in length. Cost extra $1500.
Have the changed the specification for the latest facelift we Musso? In the UK the official figures say it can carry 1100kg and tow 3,500kg at the same time? The model in this video nearly collapses with the 500kg weight in the back?
musso for start a better looking ute
Do you have a comparison with these utes towing]
How goes a bigger wheel find bumps?
I don't know why low profile tyres are still a thing. they offer nothing other than slightly better handling at non legal speeds.
they are worse for comfort, durability, economy, off-road performance, and besides it looks ridiculous anytime the rim makes up a larger percent of the wheel than the tyre on a 4x4
9:51 sometimes I miss not having power steering
Well you don’t just have triton to go on dates do you? No, utes are made for the name, utility. Best tradie Ute around
Wow Sangyong really upped their game.
Do a review on the mahindra pik up s10 dual cab...... Pretty please
If you said the name "ssangyong" 10 years ago, the reply would have been distant screams as the person you spoke to ran for the hills! However lose the stupid 20" wheels, add a longer tray and some leaf springs and these days you have a serious contender. I dont think it will ever out sell the triton, but theres no contesting the value with the trim level, long warranty, capped price servicing, and buy in price. Would love to see an entry level manual test and comparison. Better than a great wall thats for sure. Get used to them guys, i believe we'll be seeing a lot more of these in years to come!
so why dosen't the name ssangyong 10 years later still not make you scream and run for the hills? what recognition do they deserve? they shouldent even be mentioned in the same sentence as Mitsubishi Triton. th ed 7 year warranty seems to be there claim to fame.... huh big deal. the quality vehicles dont need the warranty. if people are happy to keep fixing a car and not pay a cent then perfect but the real ute owners that use them for trades dont want to be off the road even if the repair cost nothing. time is worth more money. i guess its inevitable that such a popular segment will become flooded with crap. everyone want a piece of thd pie.
@@cenzofrisina6517 what recognition does mitsubishi deserve? They've been around longer... thats about it! Mitsubishi are certainly not the most reliable manufacturer selling in australia right now. They rely on value and a long warranty for sales. All I'm pointing out is that Ssangyong seem to have pipped them at the post in both of these areas. Mitsubishi also have a 7 year warranty but its capped at 150ks. The ssangyong is not. Mitsi has capped price servicing, but it stops at 3 years where the ssangyongs doesnt. If you spec to a similar trim level with the triton, then the price is exponential! Unlimited km warranties are becoming the nowm now. It shows confidence in a product. Would the triton sell in the same numbers with no warranty? I doubt it. What experience do you have with a new ssangyong that proves it unreliable? Not that long ago hyundais and kias were horrible, now theyre well built cars that sell in the masses. Back in the 80s and early 90s mitsubishi's were unreliable, underpowered and uneconomical shitboxes, that now do their best to meet the market. It is possible through research and development for a manufacturer to develop an acceptable product. I suggest you have a closer encounter with the product before judgement. You may find theyre not as bad as you think.
@@simonlombardo6576 the question is, what will happen after the warranty expires, is this musso will be cheap to repair ?, how much that you will pay for an engine repair, suspension repair, frame repair, etc, etc, triton is dirt cheap to repair, even with this more "modern" engine version, the non MIVEC and VGT 2.4, 2.5 and the 2.8 is even cheaper to maintain, and its been out for so long that spare part won't be an issue for you, can ssangyong offer that kind of thing ?
@@yudhobaskoro8033 parts are considered to be quite reasonable, even supplied by the manufacturer.
@@cenzofrisina6517
What recognition do they deserve?
They have already earned their title as the most satisfying utes in Australia as they are rated 4.3 according to Australian Product Review(one of the most trustworthy review sites) followed by d max(3.7), triton(3.5), hilux(3.5), ranger(3.3)…
Musso is not just bang for your buck it actually a fairly good car in terms of conform, value, design, quality and most importantly reliability
Musso has been recognised and greatly paraised by those who has owned or driven
For me, it’s the best car I’ve ever purchased(I’ve purchased 6 cars including my current 2021 face lifted Musso for the last 10years Veloster >Sorento ex>Tiguan tdi>Q5 tfsi>C cdi250
You can get weight upgraded coil springs. I put them in my actyon. They are rock hard and you can load it up.
Don't forget, the SsangYong engine is based on a 90s Benz design
Did they spray the bumper on the Triton a complete different colour?
I picked that up looks like it had wither a accident or Mitsubishi can't match colors.
Hmmm... The Musso looks good, the interior looks great. Korean built, 7 year warranty. I'd have one over any Ute for city use.
"Look's good" haha
No, the ride is still choppy even with weight he said.
Your going to need the 7 year warranty
Rich X name a car on the market that doesn’t need a 7 year warranty?
How many Musso dealers are there to sort out the warranty in Australia... even bigger issue for that Musso is the resale
.
The Musso is a family twin cab ute with a soft and more refined feel where the Triton in a higher spec tradie ute. To compare the two and pronounce the Triton a "winner" it not a fair comparison of what market they are intended for. Like matching a commodore to a Rolls Royce. Both 4 door sedans but each focused of a different buying market. For me its the Musso. A great all round family twin cab for the urban life we lead. Good for picking up the kids and able to take a load to the tip on the w/end. Not as hard edged as the triton who i would suspect is marketed to the w/end 4wd male buyers looking for the occasional off road or the week day tradie.
I think it's also about price comparison, you won't find a Rolls Royce for the same money as a Commodore.
Love the price & equipment on the SsangYong but definitely needs a considerably longer tray! And that lap seatbelt in the rear is dangerous & tacky! Particularly on a top spec model. With the addition of optional leaf springs & longer tray i imagine some tradies will find it a lot more tempting.
Can anyone tell me what the Musso motor and gearbox manufacturer is?
I saw a review recently on the Rexton saying it's running gear is Mercedes-Benz.
I would be interested in the Musso Longwheel base with the leaf rear end.
Swap the 20s for some 15 or 16 inch rims and All terrains.
Add side steps, bullbar, tow bar, canopy (If they do them)
Great vehicle for under $40k
IVA Devon Head and The Funky Bunch Yes Ssangyong used to have a colab with Merc used their motors and transmissions but now Mahindra own Ssangyong not sure what motors they use and this particular Musso uses AISIN transmissions
@@SWATforce1 Thanks for the reply mate
$10,000 cheaper than triton.
They got almost same spec.
Musso won!
Josh Problem in UK, we get charged VAT 20% Extra
not almost same. Musso throw in much more.
NOT $10,000 cheaper anymore, the luxury Musso is dearer than the mitsubishi @$43,000, I've test drove each one last week and the LVD, , I'm going to test the cannon next and buy one of these.....the cheapest is the LVD, it also has the least power of the lot, but at $33,000 drive away it's by far the cheapest
You need to do the math on towing capacity. 3.5t is Bs when accounting for payload.
Yep, it shits me when people knock the tritons 3.1 ton... mitsubishi have actually been smart
I agree. I've got a ranger and there's no way I'm sticking 3.5t behind it. I value my life.
Is there a modification to fit a lap sash seatbelt in the rear?
Of course
A friend had a SsangYong Korando that just kept failing, the best was when the auto gearbox launched its internals out through the case! 😭😭
Perhaps they have improved..
Get a lemon in all makes. On the other hand I know of SsangYongs that have done 100's of thousands of K's and never missed a beat.
The auto fitted to a lot of Ssangyons in the past was the BTR Australian made automatic exported to Korea (The Aussie Borg Warner) Sam is fitted to a lot of falcons fitted with a different case.
I switched to musso from triton after driving triton for 7 years and musso is just so much more comfortable and easy to drive, my musso is still brand new so I can't say much about reliability yet but love this ute for its value
That 'Sports Bar' on the back of the Musso looks hard-core shopping centre carpark, much like the wheels. Yuck.
Have you seen some of the many bars on a Colorado?
@@davidanderson8381 Foget the Colorado. Only plus for it, is the Isuzu D-Max engine. And speaking of the Isuzu D-Max, the latest model has received a facelift and it looks mean. A truly aggressive look, by way of the new headlights. Best way to describe them, would be if for those folks that are old enough to remember the *Bad Boy* stickers that we'd stick on the rear windows of our cars, you know, those pair of intense looking eyes. All new interiors, so GM will have to come up with something spectacular to keep prospective buyers from gravitating to the Isuzu...
0:45-Is that a 'Daewoo' emblem.?
So the Ssangyong has better comfort, more equipment and tech, can tow more is cheaper and has longer warranty, the only thing the triton does better Is loading? And then it wins?? This is a joke right?
Then wait and test the musso grand and don't take the 20 inch wheels. I don't understand the result of this test
Mitsubishi need better QC regarding their painting sub assemblies, whoever the operator is mixing the paint is far off what the chassis is being sprayed on the assembly line. Look at the colour match difference on the Blue, Grey, Pearl white front bars to front guards. Paint does look different on plastic, but that's a pretty big difference. Looks like the clear is satin. Other than that, the Triton is great.
That's to be expected that the triton would feel better with weight in the back as it's probably got useless leaf springs. However if the triton is empty then you'd find it would be as stiff as in the back. Leaf springs unless you're a farmer and putting big loads in the back and totally useless as they are too rigid unless loaded. Coil springs or even better air bag suspension is superb and gives a very good ride quality. Most people would very rarely put that sort of load in the back however they might want to tow something with it, more than likely. As you say if you're a tradey and like to leave it loaded up then go for leaf spring option.
Both are good vehicles, but I rather have a Musso due to price difference and overall ride refinement.
The thing is with the Mitsubishi you have dealer backup.
The Ssangyong network is being re established as the brand re enters the market, backed by Ssangyong itself and not a import company like the last time. Given a 12mths i expect the dealer network and service back up to grow substantially.
Dang it SsangYong, 20" dubs?? If the Musso goes on sale here in SA, that would immediately rule it out for most lifestyle families or farmers. Our country roads and those of our neighbouring countries (which many Saffers will visit with their bakkie (ute)) are just as rough as those in the Outback and, apart from likely tyre failure with those wheels life will be hell inside. A shame, because the rest looks great for the price. The Musso was always meant to be a luxury sport utility ute rather than a full on workhorse but now it's pretty much useless off the tarmac. Bring it out with 17" rims and all-terrain tyres!
Mitsubishi Triton the best choice very good handling for speeding on highway
Ssanyong have got a ways to go in the Australian market.
They need street cred
Offroad cred reliable cred
And wouldn’t hurt to pick up looks dept. either.
too right. it seems to easy to gain recognition.
What a dog's breakfast
Musso
Maybe because most of these utes never go off road? I want to like the Musso much more than the Triton. It seems that the Musso has lots more positives and only three negatives - load capacity, high speed steering feel, and ride. I may buy a ute soon, and I hate the thought of paying more than $40K for one. Hopefully the ride will be improved by the Ironman tuning, and hopefully the steering isn't too bad (but steering feel is important), and as for the load capacity, I can't see me loading 700Kg in the back ever. I guess if the Musso can't pass my steering and ride acceptability test, then its back to the drawing board. Or the good quality, the warranty, and the features, including all the safety features, may win me over. I recently drove a 3.2 Ranger, and it was awful!
So you don’t want to go off road, or carry things. Why are you looking at a 4x4 dual cab ute then? Curious.
This would be for private use only, mainly towing a small racing car and its trailer around. I still need to carry stuff around, nothing too heavy, and carry passengers. I don't need to go off road. It needs to be comfortable and well appointed. The 4x4 comes standard, so I have no choice there, and at $40K for the top model, its still below the low range Triton spec. Look at all the utes driving around now. They rarely have their trays full up.
The Musso seems to be a building inspectors ute
Do you guys have the mpv version of the L200 triton? It's basically a downsized triton with a gasoline engine and FWD www.mitsubishi-motors.co.id/our-cars/xpander
I have the model before this triton, same motor. Yes it is quite noisy, but very good power and reliability. Just make sure to do an egr delete
Me too, i have a blackline edition. Would it need a tune? Any performance differences or just to prevent carbon buildup?
@@mr.h3603 yeah just for the buildup, I just put an egr delete cable on mine. I wanna remap mine next though and fit a oil catch can
phaze ho sounds like a good plan mate! Let me know how it all works out :)
@@adamdimo1954 , If you remap and delete EGR why do you need a catch can.?
Best thing to do with any diesel is fit a catch can
Whay about fuel consumption
Has the triton been crashed? The front looks like it’s been repainted.
Musso used to be a bloody awesome wagon with a Mercedes motor.
Unfortunately not anymore
Much better now, from the gearboxes to the engines they use. Plenty of good 3rd party manufacturers around with good reputations.
I love the triton, good for a budget. Doubt you'll see these getting around in 30 years time like a Hilux, Cruiser or Patrol though.
Plenty of old tritons still kicking around
None of the new utes they make these days will be kicking on in 30yrs.,
Why don't they actually compare 2 utes the same class instead of a top of the range and a mid range there's 9 thousand difference in price if they did similar range..Plus the cheaper Ssangyong has smaller wheels and tyres which might help the handling .I agree the 20 inch wheels would be crap .
They are in the same class. The Musso is fully loaded and cheaper, yet still more than competitive
There wasn't a low-grade Musso available. We'll try and make it happen.
Cheers
Matt
I have a 10 year old Mitsubishi Challenger and have recently had to take it to panel beaters for rust repairs to front underside and roof. The paint on the Mitsubishi is quite disappointing.
Id chose the Mitsubishi Triton
Triton every day off the week, the new MR Triton's are unreal... very nice too drive and the 7 year warranty is just unreal.
I'VE OWNED TRITONS FOR 18 YEARS NOW NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THEM AND STILL OWN ONE NOW. BUT I THINK I WANT A MORE PLUSH RIDE NEXT CAR. FACTORY SUSPENSION IS UN SATISFACTORY PERIOD. I ALWAY UPGRADE SUSPENSION. SO THE MUSSO NEEDS A SUSPENSION UPGRADE SO WHAT! IM GONNA GO FOR THE XLV MUSSO WITH SUSPESION AND ENGINE TUNE. SOMETHING DIFFERENT
Think a better comparison would've been Great Wall
Does the average mechanic know how to service SsangYong vehicles?if something needs replacing, Is it difficult to order specific parts ?
Answers ; yes and yes
So should I get one? Or better to spend a few extra thousand dollars on the triton or the Hilux?
@@andyandys5356 If the budget is not a problem, I would go with Triton. But some says that its suspensions are harder than Hilux which efects negative the road confort. But as to moo tests Triton is better which shows that it is safer vehicle. All brands have some positive and negative points. You will choose.
Budget is not a problem but I don't want to spend extra on the things I don't need....I never go off road and I dont do towing...I like the look of the Musso...but concerned with the lack of dealers and company bankruptcy problems etc...
@@andyandys5356 I think that you can have problems regarding the parts in the future. But mussos are like cars more comfortable. If budget is not a big problem, why don't you think L200 Triton. Only disadvantage is it's hard suspensions, not comfortable for rear seaters.
Well
sanyong nice wheel
Musso would be better on 18" wheels. I would buy the lower end model. 20" is best on sports car.
I like Mitsubishi but I'd actually go with a Foton cabover to save a few quid.
*nIcE*
SsangYong used to be but-ugly, only a mother will love.
But now they realise its better not to be too radical.
I don't agree, it's ugly
@Jim Barrows 👀😂😂🥺
I love old Musso
What was the screen thing in the back of the Triton? Looked like a mini tablet.
storage
No surprisingly, the 2021 Musso doesn't have the 20 inch rims. They are impractical
This guy is good, but why can’t they do a cab chassis comparison?
Thanks for the compliment, and here's the answer: not many car manufacturers have cab chassis models on their press fleets. Believe us, we've tried hard to make it happen, but short of going out and buying a bunch of brand new cab-chassis utes to do the test (which isn't going to happen!), it's unlikely.
Cheers
Matt
Thanks for explaining that to me. I suppose the cab chassis is sold to none car people ie tradies.
soon the bumpers will be just one part, no more front guard.
SsangYong
Mitsubishi any day! The Musso has a tiny carrying tray and it struggle's to carry an ordinary item a Ute should be able to carry! When I learn how to drive, I'll save up money so I can buy a Mitsubishi Triton!😊😀☺👍💯😅😄😘♥💜💞💟
Take a look at the Musso XLV. It has the biggest tray in this class. This is the short version, moreso for lifestyle vehicles. Also worth noting it can fit a pallet, most others can't.
@9:41 "...but there are some things you have to contend with with the Triton; it feels very worky; its got a very noisy diesel engine in comparison to the SsangYong..." and when you put your foot down you hear a lot of clatter come into the cabin.
Well it's a work ute ain't it. 😊
Not long and we'll be ditching the hi-vis work wears and rocking up to work in mandatory satin gowns. We'll be required to wear silk gloves and in place of steel capped boots we will have woolen slippers. 😂
Buyers of the SsangYong will not necessarily take it off-roading and may even buy it simply for its luxury up-market aspect.
I do not know any auto company that works so hard to be recognized as Ssangyong, but yet finds it tough to break into the market. It would be a great shame if they went out of business.
I think they are majority shareholders of Hyundai and kia, Ssanyong Australia has problems, Ssanyong is the best of the Sth Korean cars, Like Daewoo, stupid names ruin sales, When holden took over the Daewoo factory and rebadged the Daewoos to Holden's they had no problem selling them, Holden Barina's, Spark, Captiva's, etc etc.
Mitsubishi is the bakkie
I'll stick to the triton.
triton is great if you turn off the egr
Very good intelligent review. The Mitzy would be the one to go for.
The colour match on the Tritons bumper is terrible.
As a toyota fanboy. Ill just lean towards Strada L200
Korean not bad actually, but triton any day. Except for the poor paint matched front bumper
The one they have on test in all likelihood is a demonstrator, and when you see what happens to them, especially factory demonstrators given out to motoring journos, you wouldn’t be surprised to see the vehicle receive damage and get repaired by someone not overly handy with a spray gun.
@@rsoul7282 good info man
I own the 2020 musso, its worth every dime spent oon it.
Musso ..... gotta give the newcomer a go
You guys must get a different spec than the UK as I'm sure the new musso has a 1 tonne payload limit
From memory the leaf string version has one tonne.
Ssangyong king
Is this the top of the line triton?
carl 21 no
GLS Premium 4WD is the top of the range.
@@gregburville3368 oh here in the philippines we call it strada and the top of the line is strada gt
Nah mate, it's the entry dual cab auto 4x4 diesel model, the GLX+.
I wouldn't touch the Mitsubishi. I've heard the Ssangyong is a far superior vehicle all round. The power unit for the Ssangyong is Mercedes/ Ssangyong so it wlll be a very good engine. Obviously they believe so too otherwise they wouldn't have given it a 7 year warranty with unlimited ks.
The musso does not have a merc engine, engine is designed in house
@@Songs-ok7bs oh OK, fair enough.
A downside for Ssangyong must be an old Mercedes engine, Germa and Diesel is not good
You can go fast but my Triton can go anywhere!
The ssangyong definately
Please notice ne
1:20 bruh the paint matching on the mitsu bumper is so bad
English spec musso is 1000kg
Yeah a total budget, give me a dozen
Another point worth mentioning, is that the Musso has, gas stuts for the bonnet/hood, whereas the Triton has the dreaded prop support rod, which can only be interpreted as mean spirited on Mitsubishi's part, as the paltry price difference would not be something that prospective buyers would whinge about. Come on Mitsubishi, it's 2020, time to lift your game somewhat...
Gas struts may seem more convenient but they wear out over time, at least the old school prop rod support won’t let the bonnet fall on your head !
@@lukey139 My main opposition to the prop rod is it's hindrance to working around the engine bay, whereas gas struts do not. As for wearing out over time, make that a bloody long time. You may remember vehicles from the 1950s to the 1970s, where bonnets/hoods were spring loaded, which on my 1966 Holden HR, up until the day I sold it in 2008, not once needed adjustment, including the pivoting pins. Also, just about every make of car on the road today has a similar spring loaded mechanism to open the boot lid/trunk, or by gas struts. No, Auto Manufacturers concluded they could shave a few dollars by doing away with a spring loaded bonnet/hood with it's intricate hinge-pin setup, by adding a prop rod, and lighter weight hinge etc. Cheers, and thanks for your feedback...
T60 is better value for money of your after a basic ute.
