Funny thing about statistics and products, you really need to understand advertising campaigns, company design and change of model details as well as money back deals and the gullibility of the consumer in response to such things. The problem of the Psychology behind these things is often expressed by studies of young children in supermarkets, put the lollies where the kids can see them and they want them! Put them above head height of normal children, and only the exceptionally tall will see them!
I am not going anywhere else with this!

We've had a Ranger & currently a Navara. Friends of ours refuse to call them a REAL four wheel drive because they haven't got a Toyota badge on them. Badge loyalty or just plain stupidity?

Up goes the Ranger price!

Nothing wrong with the Colorado, I have one and does the job at hand very nicely thankyou very much.

I too was surprised that Colorado was above the Dmax though, maybe to do with Holden giving better deals as was my case or I would have a Dmax.

Doug. Maybe something to do with Isuzu being the biggest
IE most popular trucks in the world.

Ute's to them are just a tiny offshhot.
They make more than enuff on the trucks.

Just maybe.
much more expansion of sales would mean a lot more costing
in Manufacturing plant to keep up.
Just a thort.

Same as that US Missile thing.

Seeing as US is also supplying Syria with weaponry at billions of $$$'s.
I wouldn't be surprised if a %age of those missiles had dummy heads.
and the Syrian gov't
Pre warned.
Had already moved the flying equipt from that Airbase. PRE attack.

OR.
Am I just being my usual Cynical self, regarding the US.

Time will tell hey.
They've done it b4.

 Its called brand snobbery, people spend a lot of money on vehicles not suited to the job.
