    I'm in Thailand now and looking at buying the Champ. I have seen in the flesh the various options and, for me, it looks like a good buy. I respect what appears to be Toyota's vision of bringing to the market a "farmers" or basic trade truck. No bells no whistles, do away with the fancy wish list stuff and keep it simple (maybe it's the new "Peoples Truck" ) I certainly expect it will be running around Asia for the next 40 to 50 years.
    Diesel is my preferred option but with a short wheel base bed. That limits me to an automatic when I would have gone for a manual. There isn't a 4wd option either. There are a couple of additions (extras) that I will specify, not least a reversing camera as the rear window is small and our parking space is tight, grab handles on the window pillars as otherwise you have 2 threaded holes each side that are not even blanked off. Same goes for a passenger visor..not standard but the fitting is there. All in, with metallic paint, it's going to work out close to 17000 USD. I'm a Brit and there's nothing like it in the UK..and it would clean up at this price... I understand it will not been seen in Australia or the US either.
    To me, for years, manufacturers have added stuff to vehicles we didn't know we needed and it's all the more to go wrong. Give me an old diesel that bangs away for ever, even if I have to manually wind the windows, sing to myself and look at a map book. And, I should, add it won't be long before there will be a load of aftermarket add-ons available.

      Wow still 17k, is that standard stripped down version or some of the add-ons? The cons were pros to me for the most part on this truck, though a king cab would be useful. Was in Thailand last year and love all the little trucks and vans running around when I'm in Asia, I'm still rolling my 99 ford ranger here in the States, it has took a beating as a work truck but still running strong. This truck is exactly what the US car market needs, but of course they'll never allow it in.

    pickup used to be a bit above the price of a regular car , but today most pickup are more expensive than a mercedes , to all car makers make a cheap under $20,000 car or pickup and forget about all the toys like infotainment or electric side mirrors , give us the cars you sell in the third world at a cheap price and if I want to add any electronic toys I will have them added later if I have money to burn but stop pricing those cars out of the range of the average consumer.

      @@bobcranberries5853 Prior to releasing this vehicle, Toyota CEO said that their new company direction was to shift from making premium expensive vehicles into low cost basic vehicles. And this was across the board.
      Likely he's betting on slow or stagnant economy growth will continue globally, so there is more profit in mass selling these low cost vehicles than fewer high cost vehicles.
      Even in the states, nobody is buying brand new Tacoma's, they buy used trucked because of it's better benefit/cost ratio. Car companies don't make money when people don't buy their new vehicles. They have to make what people want to buy.
      I agree though, that American politicians will find a way to raise the cost of this particular truck so Toyota might not be able to sell it under $15k here.

    The north American market does not favor bigger trucks. They are forced on us with all the bells and whistles that many people don't want. Many just want a good quality small, simple and affordable truck like Toyota used to make. I disagree with your opinion and think that it's propaganda. I bet if Toyota sold the new Champ in North America that it would out sell any other vehicle at the price point that Toyota is selling them in other countries. Even if Toyota priced them at 20k, it would still sell extremely well. A new full sized truck in now 135k. You could purchase 13 Toyota Champs at that price.

    • @yo2trader539
      @yo2trader539 3 місяці тому

      You're not wrong. It's how US emission standards, tariffs, and regulations are designed.
      But one thing uniquely American is that pick-up trucks are not necessarily used as work/farm trucks like in most other countries. American consumers are often picky about heated seats, sun-roof, infotainment, wireless charging, or latest tech/software. Many are demanding "luxury" interior which suggests, pick-up trucks in the US is more a status symbol and fashion statement than anything. I think Toyota plans to sell these trucks in Thailand, Philippines, Mexico, Brazil, etc....where they actually need them for work.

    • @robertlaird6746
      @robertlaird6746 3 місяці тому

      @@yo2trader539 I get your point and that's true in many cases. Another thing to consider is that America doesn't sell small trucks anymore and we are forced to purchase the bigger trucks that many world rather have a small truck. Another thing is that all the vehicles are getting larger and larger due to the EPA and people are somewhat scared to drive a smaller vehicle. They feel safer driving a larger vehicle in case they get in an accident. The used Toyota market is very hot hear. People love the older Toyota trucks and pay a premium for them. A good condition 2003 4x4 extra cab Toyota P/U will ealially sell for $18,000. I firmly believe that if a new basic Champ was sold in North America that it would blow the competition away because of price and many other factors. The price of a brand new top of the line Ford, GMC, Chevy or Dodge goes for $130,000. If the Champ was priced 15k than you could get 8.67 Champs verses that one new full size truck. The average new vehicle in America is about 45k. Another reason that they will not let an affordable Toyota come into America is because it would disrupt the high prices that all of the other auto makers are charging. I firmly believe that people world rather get a brand new Champ for 10 to 15k rather than get pretty much anything else available. These things would sell like hot cakes.
