Take a look at Vantage - they are Mitso's sold under a different trade name. Looked these over at the NAFA convention this year. Sweet. You have a dealer in Ft Worth.

I'm actually kind of excited to see Mahindra selling some models here in the US. The pickups are a little funny looking, but the SUV isn't bad at all..and I hate SUVs.
I am mostly excited because they are diesel only, though. I'm sure most people will scoff when they hear that it's an Indian brand, but hey, they are doing quite well everywhere else in the world.

Btw the company is "Mahindra" I assume the "na" at the end of the website is for their north american division. I've heard of this company before, don't they make diesel tractors?

i wouldn't mind if they never make it big. Toyota and Hyundai were laughed at when they came out and look at them now. it really looks like a truck that you get a dent and not look too bad. i like the fact that they are so minimal!

I think it is worthy competition for the Kubota and the US makers.

It's about time!
Every time I go to another country, I can't believe the variety of small-midsized diesel vehicles. I'd just about kill for a nice old diesel hilux, but every Costa Rican and their mother can get one. It's an ugly, ugly truck, but I hope it does well. Throw that engine into an old Pathfinder and I'd be a happy man.

I didn't see a price either.
It's Mahindra and Mahindra. They are the biggest truck manufacturer in India. I met some Mahindra & Mahindra executive on a flight from Houston to Detroit 2 years ago. Boy was he getting wasted on free Budweisers. He offered me a job in India to help on these vehicles designed for the US market. He offered me a couple hundred thousand, but couldn't guarantee my wife a job. I didn't think I'd like it there.
