:thumbup: Yes, Toyota is clearly still in the lead!

Just wondering if it is just buyers' loyalty because of the proven reliability and market value, and by how much the market share has changed (grown??i doubt :think: or dropped) since the intro of the new Ranger for example :?: :?:

The hilux is doing very well, I doubt that it would change. Very surprised at the ranger, due to previous model defects.

Yes, I drive an Amarok and not surprised at the sales figures due to it being a brand new product. Maybe in 5 years time when a new model is launched the figures will increase. But in present time, Hilux will be king......I reckon the Isuzu guys will get more Sales from the Ranger guys.....after they have realised their mistake.....
