so, i've had this truck now for 2 weeks, put 2 full tanks of gas through it, plus another roughly 300 km... about 1270 km total... gas mileage is not the greatest... but it's not bad... of my recorded mileage and fuel useage, it's about 16mpg, which is 579miles for 35 us liquid gallons... (932km/134L)
it's got what I call "no ball traction control" essentially, low end torque is what comes into play, it has no ***** and can't spin the tires on dry pavement. however, once rolling to a decent speed, this truck has some good power, it picks up around 3500 rpm... sound system sucks *****, and the design was half assed, i like the direction the went, and the thoughts behind both the interior and the body, but they really **** the bed with finishing it off well... looks like it is some stealth vehicle from the 80's that didn't work for the army so they marketed it to everyone in the world...

oh, and i forgot to mention, the handling is nuts... it does not handle like a pickup truck period, never mind a 4x4... it handles like a sports car, next to no body roll, turns nice and easily, hugs the road... but it makes me VERY weary going over bumps at any speed... not like a truck should be...
