Hilux Failed Moose Test

[i.am.aids]

So for context, watch TV’s whole video. You’ll see a Ram 1500, Nissan Navara, Volkswagen Amarok, Ford Ranger, Isuzu D-Max (Chevy Colorado) and Mitsubishi Triton go through the same test with significantly less dramatic results.

The Toyota Hilux Still Has A Critical Weakness

Interesting to say the least. I wonder how and if the results transposes to the new fortuner as well. Have fortuners owners in the family kasi.

Wow. Best just run over the moose then. Maybe a change to a wider set of rims and tires with more negative offset would help?

I thought the suspension was sporty stiff... truck stiff pala.

They're huge. I think this isn't even a full grown one.


Siguro travel slowly na lang in Moose country.

Noticed that too. The front end in particular. Wow.

Buti wala tayong moose dito. J/K. It's good to know that limitation as awareness goes a long way.

With our own local conditions, I notice the handling deficiency when driving at highway speeds then you simulate a emergency brake and steer maneuver, the rear really gets left behind and your street movements are hindered to keep the car balanced. Best is to really brake and scrub the speed before steering hard.

Notice the tire flex on the 18s in the picture. Hopefully using 20s with a lower profile and upgraded shocks can help.

May mga wild pigs minsan and kadalan aso naman dito sa pinas, mayroon din bolang biglang tatalbog sa kalsada.
Defensive driving and fatigue management on or before travel, maybe...

It looks like it's really better to just brake hard and face the moose headon to avoid that quick maneuver.



The lower the vehicle, the higher the chance you'll have a moose on your side or face.


Googling carabao/cow vs car... Lol!
