Any thoughts?

Out of the 90,000 plus posts on this site there are two posts on this topic, thats it, so I dont for one see how this would stop or should stop anyone for considering a Triton, this stuff can happen to any Dual Cab and a rear end accident can happen to anyone.
You need to look at what your needs and use will be and get the best vehicle to suit, I can still not think of a better Truck other than the Triton which would have suited me.
We are all watching rats story unfold but we are not rushing out to sell our vehicles scared of this happening to ours, but does make us wiser.
I once had Suzuki Sierra designers from Japan and Canada come and visit me at my home because I had the first Sierra 1.3l soft top with factory hard top in the country to see how it was handling being used in the real world. MMAL should be doing the same, own up and get a bunch of engineers to Rats Triton ASAP and sort it out.
Detailed Description
OL Caddy twin wheel carrier to suit Mitsubishi triton utes with well body. Comes complete with two arms. Suits Mitsubishi Triton ML 7/06 on
Technical Specifications
The catch plate guides have provision to bolt or pad-lock the wheel carrier closed. This TWC bumper has been developed to suit Hayman Reese & Mitsubishi Genuine Tow Bar. (Note: Some trailers need to have more clearance between the bumper and tow ball).
