I have the Toyota Hilux rogue 2021 and I can honestly say with the inclusion of a electronic roller door tread with caution. I’ve had nothing but issues with mine, either getting stuck, draining the battery and the included tub lights not turning off. If there was an option of using the manual release I would use that.

took the local top spec for a drive today and can't wait for my order of the wildtrak v6 with all the bells and whistles to come to Mumma. I wanted a good looking hard working work truck and that's what im getting!!!

Moving the front wheels forward, has nothing to do with departure angle. It actually makes ramp-over angle worse. Shame there is not a bigger fuel tank for touring or the option of a second tank. Wheel travel looks to be limited, relying on diff-lock for wheel traction. Option of front diff-lock? Turning circle with longer wheel base?? Where do the aux. switches link to, engine bay?

I have a late model Mustang with the 10 speed and find very little use for the paddle shifters on it.
