This question was probably asked 1000 times. The problem is, it’s hard to find a comparison chart for all the most popular dual cabs in Australia. I’m planning a trip around Australia and really considering a Holden Rodeo or Isuzu Dmax. Unfortunately, after searching all those websites and manufacture specifications I still didn’t find a few details for Holden Colorado: Approach and departure angles, 3.0L Diesel engine – is it a single or double overhead cam, chain or belt timing driven, 4 or 2 valves per cylinder? I found this chart http://dualcab.net/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=7 , but there is not enough data.
Most dual cabs have a very similar specifications, it comes to reliability and comfort, I guess. I’m not going to tow any trailer, just a roof tent. There are some rumours about bent Triton chassis due to overload and corrugation?...What about other dual cab utes: Navara, D-Max, Colorado? Any cases of bent chassis? Are they strong enough for lengthy corrugations?
Can they be used as a stock for a trip around Australia, including all the “icons” like Simpson, Cape York, etc...Are they high enough or they require a lift?
Thank you for any input.
