It’s been an award-winning season for the new 2023 Ford Ranger and its variants. Recently, it’s added another two more to its list of accolades as Sime Darby Auto ConneXion (SDAC), the sole distributor for Ford in Malaysia, received the CarPlus Editor’s Choice Award 2022-2023 for ‘Pick-up Truck of the Year’ for the Ranger and ‘Car of the Year’ for the Ranger Raptor. The Ranger boasts an updated design with enhanced aerodynamics and improved interior comfort. It features a range of powerful, effi

Man and power tools cannot be separated, in the same line as Taylor Swift and songs about ex-boyfriends or on a more relatable note, Alfa Romeos and unreliability. If you’re wondering why that is, there’s a simple reason behind it and what led to the Isuzu D-Max 1.9L 4x2. Let’s hark back to the times of Neanderthals and the first rudimentary tools created.

These units are likely imported from Thailand for local parts development purposes. Trial production has yet to begin a

The Mitsubishi Triton VGT Adventure X is the only pickup truck with a centre LSD. That’s the mechanical highlight of the Adventure X. With the transfer case set to 4H, it can drive like a full-time 4WD and not just a part-time 4WD (no centre LSD).
