I've owned Ford Maverick's, and sir that is no maverick Quote Link to comment
nismo dr Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 That particular one is a 6th gen. Sixth generation (Y61; 1997–2010) Y61 (GU) models first appeared in 1997, only available in 4.5L petrol and 2.8L Turbo Diesel, 3.0L Turbo Diesel, 4.2L diesel, 4.2L Turbo Diesel, 4.2L Turbo Diesel Intercooler variants. In 2002 a new petrol engine was added. A 4.8L inline 6 with new DOHC system, and made 248 hp (185 kW) and over 46 kg·m (Template:Convert/Nm ft·lbf) This engine is very famous and popular among UAE tuners, where it could be easily modified and upgraded to levels where it could beat some supercars produced by Lamborghini, Ferrari and other supercar producers. In one occasion a TB48DE engine was fully modified and was able to reach over 2,000 hp (1,491 kW) for the sand hills challenges. In 2004 a significant facelift model was released. That same year, Nissan stopped selling the Safari in Japan due to poor sales. Nissan also makes a pick up version of the Y61 series with two and four door variations. Although a new model has been launched this Y61 series will still sell for off-road enthusiast but only with few options as a basic trim. Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 You can blame over regulation for that one, not Nissan. I'm sure it won't pass crash tests and has a high rollover risk. Just one more way the .gov makes your life better. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
herculesinwyoming Posted August 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 so government expects a small ute vehicle to handle like a exotic car and have crash ratings like a volvo Quote Link to comment
yellowdatsun Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 No, the government doesn't expect it, the stupid idiotic misinformed uneducated American public expects it. Common sense is being regulated out of the general public. Heaven forbid someone has to actually think over here, and use their brain to figure out whether a tall vehicle is going to have more of a chance to roll over. Blame the lawyers and lawsuit hungry public. Quote Link to comment
