Mate I have a 2014 triton and it has never missed a beat but just make sure it has had all services mine tows a 2 ton boating weekends and during the week I drive it like its stolen
by the way done 75000 km

I've had a 2013 and 2014 model (manuals) and they are very good vehicles. Just make sure the price is in line....ive seen quite a few 12 and 13s for sale with 40k + kms and are only a few $k below a new one. Especially considering I think it was 13 they dropped the price on them new? They tow great and are a pleasure to drive for their price point, are above all, are a very reliable veh. I have driven one all over the top end whilst towing and not a single issue. If its a good price, its a good Ute to grab. Not sure of it affects the 12, but there was a recall last year for an ecu update and new radiator cap, something to check out anyway. Good luck

thanks guys ,,,
what would a cost figure be on something like this

[Dan5]

Considering the price of the run out model new is $27k drive away you would expect mid teens as an appropriate figure they have been selling them at Great Wall prices to bring in the new model.

$27k is the base-base-base model it all depends on what model as i brought mine GLXR with all the trimmings for $47,000and added a $3000 fiberglass canopy for work
GLXR -$22-27,000
GLR--$19-24,000
GL---$15-20,000 it also depends on the condition of the car and service history. if its been a commercial work car probable lower end if its been grandads and kept in in the shed and looked after it higher end of the scale

GLX+ model twincab manual TD non premium paint can be bought for 27K.........Their advertised price is 29,990 drive away 2015 model check their website.

U can still get the run out model, brand new, manual, alloy wheels, sode steps for $28300.

I was going to buy one but have decided to wait a few months and hopefully they do some deals on the newest shape

I paid $32680 for my GLX 4x4 TD auto with genuine sports fg canopy last august.

I have two of them in dual cab now one manual and one auto apart from a third pedal I can not say I prefer auto over manual in the Tritons, they both drive well.

Recall on the 2012 and 2013 models for lower right wishbone replacement, had the manual version done with a std service. Took 2.5 hours for both the wishbone and the service, cant complain about that.
