The Triton does outbrake it by a decent margin. Fact. Sorry I will go back in my box after popping out to inject some reality. And the only diesels I like are the current crop. Before then slow and noisy but I know that will upset you and others on here. To me, and i have driven them new and second hand, the fact that a stock TD5 (yes it can be made to perform but likewise modern diesels can be easily uprated) is noisy and slow compared to the modern diesels in all dual cab utes and euro diesels is unassailable but whether your passion and heart makes you prefer/love a TD5 over them, well that is another matter and one which i don't have any issue with. Between this and the dark side thread the blinkers on here sometimes are hard not to comment on. Cheers. Ps. The question of reliability of the 2.4 over modern LR diesels is another question for another thread but you know what my preference is based on my purchase.
