Isuzu dmax best car For family and luggage 🧳 ❤️

Canopy is made of fiber glass and its easily crack when it rains or shine reality i have RV better to choose metal canopy than this its not strong long lasting and its expensive very

Most of the good EV charging points are around Kathmandu and a few on the highway, so going off the main route in a BYD still needs planning.

BYD is comfortable and cheap to run in the valley, but I’m still not fully sure about resale and battery support after some years.

Buying commercial trucks like SML Isuzu here mostly comes down to who can service it nearby and how it handles hill roads, not the fancy brand name.
