I've had
mine now for a month.
It's only done a little over a 1000Km but I have used it in the Vic Alps on some moderate 4wd roads. Throttle work is responsive, able to crawl over rocky ledges & 1st low appears to be respectable for steepish down hills.
I find it more carlike and a lot more responsive than my 3L GU Patrol. I've had two 6 ft adults in the back and no complaints with room.
I'm waiting for the TJM canopy to come out (members on the www.newtriton.net website have bought other makes). It does bounce around on serious corrugations a bit (perhaps more to do with too much tyre pressure), but the other vehicles were doing the same.
It handles twisting sealed roads nicely. I bought it with added side/curtain airbags and diff locks (there is a wait for these as they are custom ordered).
