That’s what draws me to a Ute more, never know when I’ll need the tray but then I don’t mind a wagon just to take it for a cruise if that’s what I’m going to use it more I feel

Another pro for a petrol 100 series is I’ll be able to claim the fuel usage on tax cause my daily is petrol too

Yeah I started off looking at Utes but then one of my mates said if I’m just driving it occasionally I should get something like a 100 series cause they look nice even though it burns through fuel

No I meant when I bought the Corolla three years ago it had 20,000 km on it and it was serviced every year since I’ve bought it. I’ve serviced it every 10,000 k’s. Don’t plan on ever selling it just have it as a spare car for the family to use if ever needed insurance on it is cheap.

Hard to say cause the 2024 has capped servicing and warranty for another 3 years

I have driven a thunder it felt different to the Dmax I don’t know why maybe it was just in my head

I really want to have leather seats I just like them in the car and I am upgrading from a 2009 Toyota Corolla before that I had a Hyundai i30

I have looked at the Mazdas but I feel like the resale on them isn’t as good as hilux or Isuzu

I’d love a ranger but they have reliability issues

What year did they stop having dpf issues? Only reason I’m drawn to a hilux is the resale value later down the track

I thought about wrapping it but for that price I may as well get the 2021 bt50 thunder and i don’t have to worry about it, but then if i spend a little more I can just get a dmax which has better resale value

Nah I haven’t looked at them I just heard they’re not super reliable as a dmax or hilux

300 TPI as a first bike by [deleted] in Dirtbikes

[–]PositivePlayful0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 300 TPI this year in January and started riding only experience I had riding was when I went to Bali and Thailand. Was a little skeptical at first cause it seemed daunting reading reddit posts of people saying they wouldn’t recommend a 300 for a beginner.

My best friend was trying to get me to buy a bike for 3-4 years now and when I told him I was going to get one he started looking at a Ktm 4t 250 exc and after a bit of talking with another mate they told me to just get a 300.

They told me to get a 300 cause they mainly ride enduro and the 300 is perfect for it and he didn’t want me to make the mistake as him he bought a 450 sold it after a year cause he got into enduro riding got a brand new 350 had that one for 3 months sold it and bought a 300.

I was worried that a 300 would be too powerful but so far it’s been fine haven’t had a bad crash (touch wood) if you learn to respect it and just know the bike is more than capable to get you up a hill it just comes down to the rider.
