I heard the dick from Cars Guide (Hearld Sun and maybe other Fairfax papers) on the radio today give some great advice.
Guy rings up says he's interested in an 06 'lux but he's heard they had clutch problems. The self proclaimed motoring expert then comes back with something along the lines of,
"There is a bad thing out there at the moment and it's called the internet and anyone can get on and make bad stories about cars without proof. You shouldn't believe them 'lux's have no issues." Then there was slight pause and he said. "Navara's have clutch issues" and he left it at that.
For a minute I thought I was listening to Roothy radio and it was the Toyota hour but I double checked and it wasn't him, it was just another dickhead with Toyota badges burnt into his retina's that can quickly bounce off bad stories about Yota as being wrong but happily relate all clutch problems to all Navara's.
Surprise surprise this same dick when asked to rate all DC's on the market about 2 months ago didn't even rate a D40 because he tested it 6-8 months before (ST-X 550) and testing it again up against the new Ford, Colorado and Dmax wouldn't have been fair.
I love it when journos remain unbiased and review things on a level playing field
