Absolutely agree with you bro. Your wife is not going to do any F1 kind of driving. It's all about having respect for the vehicle's performance. This roll over bit is nonsense once you have mastered driving the truck.Only idiots drive madly and they deserve to end up in an accident. Chances of getting whacked at the back or sides is pretty high in the Klang valley. This where you'll have peace of mind your family is in a tank! Go for it bro, 100% smile_thumbup.gif!


Wait until you have to do an emergency brake in the wet because a kid suddenly run across the road and your pickup cargo bay is empty. Then see how....

I'll be sure to have a go at this when I test drive it properly.

Again, I say it's all about having respect for the vehicles performance and mastering the necessary skills to drive the particular vehicle. No rocket science!

May be you should have a talk with the little kid about not to run across the road randomly. Or may be you have never met an idiot driver who suddently without warning fancy your lane, lucky you. BTW, those situation has nothing to do with not respecting vehicle performance etc.

Some accidents are self inflicted like driving like an idiot but some are purely accident that are unexpected and have nothing to do with a driver's skill or not respecting the car. Some people don't know how to differentiate the differences between the 2

Finally you are getting it!

Here's another thing for you. If you want to talk to all the kids who run across traffic,that's up to you, another foolish idiotic suggestion!

Once you sit behind the wheel, you owe a duty of care to anyone on the road,more so to kids. If knock a kid who runs right across,you are at fault. The onus is on you to have sufficient skills to drive that particular vehicle safely.

This is an unstable vehicle and therefore got out of control,not my fault, is NO defence! Anunstable vehicle will not get road worthiness.

Don't kid yourself about the accident, if you are asking for it!
