Excellent news : a R700 000+ dubble cab on the way :think:

Doubt if the 3.0L diesel will make it here. Will be an awesome vehicle though ;-)

It's all good and well, but what will it be used for??

It does look nice and all.
I know it's a luxury bakkie but I don't know why one would buy it.

Wonder of hulle n AMG model sal uitbring :think: :think:

Dink net, as hulle die S65 AMG se twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 engine met 621 perdekrag en 738 lb-ft.
se torque in daai bakkie insit :drool: :drool:

Dit sal dan baie interesand wees om op grondpaaie te ry :lmao: :lmao:

it's like one of those cape flats hilux bakkies with 19 inch wheels on...

i just don't get it... if you need a bakkie, it is obviously to do work... what work can you do with bling on... 19 inch and dirt roads don't mix.

if you want to bling, then buy the AMG.

But that just IMHO... i'm sure I'll see few of this on cape flats carrying fruit and veg :crazy:

Nie dat ek dit kan bekostig nie maar ek sou hom in 'n heartbeat gekoop het as ek die geld gehad het.

Die 65 v12 het te veel krag, jy sukkel om dit op die pad neer te sit. Die 320/350 cdi sal mooi loop in daai bakkie.
