do you know why the water pumps had problems?
coz the J6 had been around since 1940s and still going strong in the 80s and 90s, show me a jap truck from the80s apart from the DI still on the road,
look at kenyan roads, for long distance Msedes Actros takes 70% of the market followed by scannia, MAN and Volvo, mbona hakuna isuzu hapo? coz japannese trucks/vehicles tire out in 4/5 years.
Euoropean vehicles are made to last,
do you remember the italian Fiat truck.

Now that we are talking lorries, the other day FRR 7th generation ilinipita kwa mlima nikashangaa that truck is fast .I guess the turbocharger is working wonders .
