ʻO ʻoe ka luna. Ua hana ikaika ʻoe, ua kūkulu ʻoe i kāu ʻoihana, he nui kāu poʻe e hana nei no ʻoe. Ua hōʻea ʻoe i ka hana mai kahi huakaʻi i waho (e hana pū me aʻu ma ʻaneʻi, hana kēia intro holoʻokoʻa i nā kuhi he nui). Ua hoʻohana wale ʻoe i ka nui o ke kālā ma kahi ute hou a haʻaheo loa iā ʻoe iho.

A laila ʻike ʻoe ua holo nā haumāna āpau iā Ranger Wildtraks a me HiLux SR5. Aia kou kaʻa ma waho o ke ala. Pehea ka poʻe e koho ai ʻo wai ka luna?

I kēia manawa, ke manaʻo nei au he kanaka ʻakaʻaka nui ʻoe i kēia hiʻohiʻona, no laila e ʻae mai iaʻu e iho i lalo a hōʻoiaʻiʻo iā ʻoe e kuha wale nei au ma ʻaneʻi.

Nīnau mai ka nui o ka poʻe iaʻu ʻo wai ka poʻe e kūʻai nei i nā kaʻa kaʻa nui ʻAmelika a ʻaʻole maopopo iaʻu. Manaʻo wau e hoʻohana maoli kekahi poʻe a makemake kekahi i kahi kaʻa nui.

Loaʻa iā RAM ka ʻehā o ka 1500 ʻano like ʻole no ke kūʻai aku, i kapa ʻia ʻo Warlock. ʻIke wau he manaʻo koʻikoʻi koʻu e pili ana i kēia mau mīkini, ua loaʻa iaʻu kahi ʻulaʻula nui no hoʻokahi pule, manaʻo wau, e ʻike inā hiki iaʻu ke ʻike i ke ʻano o ia mau mīkini.

Hōʻike ia i ka waiwai maikaʻi no ke kālā? He aha kāna mau hana? 7/10

ʻO ke kumu hoʻohālike Warlock $104,550 (me ka ʻole o nā lilo huakaʻi) i hoʻokumu ʻia ma ka RAM 1500 Crew Cab, ʻo ia hoʻi he kaʻa nui aʻe e hoʻololi i kahi hope pōkole. ʻO kēlā huina nui he 20-ʻīniha huila, ʻeono-speaker stereo system, dual-zone climate control, trunk lining, rearview camera, remote central locking, cruise control, power front seats, sat-nav, hapa ʻili ʻili (akā he plastic) . huila hoʻokele!), nā aniani i hoʻomehana ʻia, nā kukui halogen (ʻo wau hoʻi…), nā noho mua mana a me kahi ʻokoʻa piha ma lalo o ka pā.

Pono ʻoe e ʻike hiki iā ʻoe ke kiʻi i ka RAM 1500 petrol base model ma lalo o $80,000 ma mua o nā lilo huakaʻi.

Hoʻopili nani ka pale multimedia nui i ka puʻupuʻu nui. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Ke lana nei ka pale 8.0-inihi ma ka ʻaoʻao dashboard a hoʻohana ʻia e ka FCA's "UConnect" he mīkini polokalamu liʻiliʻi ʻaʻole maikaʻi loa.

E nānā, hana ia, akā manaʻo ia he kahiko a paʻa, a ma ka liʻiliʻi hiki iā ʻoe ke haʻi i kāu mau hoaaloha e hoʻohana lākou i ka ʻōnaehana like no nā mea nona Maserati a me Fiat 500. Kākoʻo ʻo Apple CarPlay a me Android Auto i ka pilina USB. ma ke kumu o ka dashboard.

Hele mai ʻo Warlock me nā kukui halogen. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Aia kekahi mea hoihoi e pili ana i kona hoʻolālā? 7/10

Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe makemake nui i ka chrome, ʻike ʻia ka RAM schnoz kuʻuna ma ka trope-spec 1500 Laramie i kēia mau lā. Manaʻo wau he mea hoʻohui maikaʻi ʻia ka pōʻai Warlock ʻeleʻele, e hoʻoluliluli i ke ʻano o nā kukui a me ka hiʻohiʻona grille vibe, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka mālama ʻana i ke kala kino o ka pae ʻoki kiʻekiʻe Express.

Hoʻohui pū ʻia nā mea paheʻe pōhaku ʻeleʻele ʻeleʻele me nā ʻanuʻu grippy (ua hoʻokipa ʻia kēlā) a me nā decals WARLOCK liʻiliʻi. Ma muli o kona nui, ʻo nā huila ʻeleʻele 20-inihi nui e hakakā nei e hoʻopiha i nā ʻaaka.

Ua hoʻololi ʻia ka grille chrome ʻino o ka stock RAM me kahi ʻano plastik paʻakikī ʻole i pena ʻia. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

I mea e ʻike ai i ke kiʻekiʻe o kēia kaʻa i ka pōʻaiapili, ua kau ʻia ma hope o kahi Kia Sorento GT-Line hou i kekahi ahiahi. I koʻu hoʻi ʻana mai mai ka hele wāwae ʻana me ka holoholona a mākou (ʻo ia hoʻi me he ʻīlio lā) ua ʻike au ua ʻaneʻane like ke kiʻekiʻe o ka ihu o ka puʻupuʻu me ka ʻaoʻao hope o ka pale hope o ke kaʻa Korea.

ʻAʻole liʻiliʻi a haʻahaʻa loa kēia kaʻa. Aia ʻoe ma ka maka o nā mea hoʻokele kaʻa ma RAM. Hiki iaʻu ke kū i loko o ka ʻauʻau (me ka wehe ʻana o ke poʻi kumu, ʻoiaʻiʻo) a hoʻomaʻemaʻe i nā auwai o koʻu hale. Malia paha ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kēlā mīkini nui ma mua o kaʻu i manaʻo ai ma mua.

ʻO ka loko, he plastic, me ka hoʻolālā exuberant. He lōʻihi, me ka ʻauʻau nui ma lalo o ka hoʻomaha lima. ʻAʻohe mea ʻē aʻe e ʻōlelo ai no ia mea, koe wale nō ka nui a ʻaʻole hoihoi loa. Akā, e ke keikikāne, maʻalahi ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe.

Hiki iaʻu ke kū i loko o ka ʻauʻau (me ka wehe ʻana o ke poʻi kumu, ʻoiaʻiʻo) a hoʻomaʻemaʻe i nā auwai o koʻu hale. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Pehea ka pono o ka lumi o loko? 9/10

Makemake ʻoe i nā coasters? Loaʻa iā ʻoe. ʻEhā ma nā wahi maopopo, ʻehā hou aʻe i hoʻopuehu ʻia ma nā puka hope ʻelua a me nā hoʻokomo kīʻaha ma ka ʻīpuka hili i lalo.

ʻO nā noho hope he ʻekolu ʻoiaʻiʻo me ka lumi wāwae e puhi ai. Aia kekahi pahu mālama lima ma lalo o nā noho hope.

ʻO nā noho hope he ʻekolu ʻoiaʻiʻo me ka lumi wāwae e puhi ai. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Hoʻopiha ʻia ka ʻauʻau nui e ka RAMbox "load management system". E like me ka Battlestar Galactica, hāmama lākou e like me nā ʻēheu e lawe i kahi haʻahaʻa o ka mea a ka RAM Australia i manaʻo ai he hau a me kekahi mau mea inu hau mai kāu mea inu punahele. A i ʻole ke kīʻaha nui loa o Starbucks (e ʻike i kaʻu e hana nei ma laila? ʻAe, ke nānā hou nei au i ka 21st century BSG reboot, no ke aha ʻoe e nīnau ai?).

Hoʻohui pū lākou i 210 lita, kahi e hoʻokūkū ai i kahi hatchback liʻiliʻi. Hoʻohui ʻia kēia i kahi moena lōʻihi o 1712 mm (5 ft 7 in) me nā ʻaoʻao pololei i hoʻokaʻawale ʻia he 1295 mm kaawale no ka maʻalahi o ka lawe ʻana.

Hoʻokomo pū ʻia me Warlock kahi ʻāpana hoʻoneʻe akamai ʻaʻole koi i nā kekelē kulanui he nui.

ʻO ka lōʻihi holoʻokoʻa o ka RAM Warlock he 5.85m kupaianaha a manaʻo wau ʻo ia ke kaʻa lōʻihi loa aʻu i holo ai. No laila ʻae, me kona laulā o 2097 mm, ʻo ke kaʻa kaʻa he moeʻuhane. ʻO ka nui o ka pahu pahu he 1400 lita a ʻo ke anawaena huli he 12.1 mika.

Ua helu ʻia ka hoʻoikaika ʻana ma ka 4500 kg (ʻaʻole he typo). ʻO ke kaumaha o ke kaʻa o 2630 kg, me ka uku o 820 kg a me ka hoʻoikaika tractive kiʻekiʻe loa, e hopena i kahi paona kaʻa nui o 7237 kg. He 3450 kg ka nui o GVM.

He aha nā hiʻohiʻona nui o ka mīkini a me ka hoʻoili? 7/10

Ma lalo o ka puʻupuʻu, ʻoi aku ka like me ke ʻano o ka hale i kūpono i kahi wahi ʻaha mele nui, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka Hemi V8 maʻamau. 5.7 lita a pau. I kēia mana, hoʻomohala ʻo ia i ka 291 kW o ka mana a me 556 Nm o ka torque. ʻOiaʻiʻo, hele ka mana i nā huila ʻehā.

Ua emi iho ka laulā a me kahi ʻokoʻa hoʻopaʻa paʻa waena, a he mea kānalua loa ia ma waho o ke alanui, inā he ʻeono mau alahele ma waho o ke alanui, manaʻo wau.

Hoʻouna ʻia ka mana i nā huila ʻewalu-wikiwiki, a he mea hoʻohiwahiwa kā Jaguar.

Ma lalo o ka puʻupuʻu, ʻoi aku ka like me ke ʻano o ka hale i kūpono i kahi wahi ʻaha mele nui, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka Hemi V8 maʻamau. 5.7 lita a pau. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Noho i kēia lā kaʻanūpepa alakaʻi pule pule

Ehia ka nui o ka wahie e pau ai? 6/10

Ke hoʻi nei i ka manaʻo Battlestar Galactica, hiki i kēia mea ke puhi i ka wahie. He 12.2L/100km haʻahaʻa ka helu pōʻaiapili hui, akā ua hōʻike kaʻu mau hoʻāʻo he 19.7L/100km kamahaʻo ma ka kamepiula huakaʻi.

No ka pololei, ʻo kaʻu ala hoʻāʻo ma kahi o 400km a ua komo pū me kahi huakaʻi kaʻapuni he 90km ma ke ala kaʻa M4 o Sydney, a ʻo ke koena he mau huakaʻi pōkole, kiʻekiʻe a puni nā wēlau o Sydney a me nā Blue Mountains.

E ʻike anei ʻoe i ka 12.2L/100km i RAM me kahi mīkini Hemi V8? Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe e iho mau ana i ka muliwai Hume, ʻaʻole paha. Hōʻike kēia i kahi hemahema kumu o ka hoʻokolohua lab maʻamau i hoʻohana ʻia no ka helu ʻana i nā helu i hui pū ʻia, a ʻo kaʻu lula o ka manamana nui ke manaʻo nei he piʻi 30% mai ka helu kūhelu ma mua o ka hoʻohana hui pū ʻana, no laila ʻaʻole ʻo 19.7 he outlier koʻikoʻi.

Me ka pahu 98-lita, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokele (kokoke) i 500 km i kēlā wikiwiki. Hiki ke manaʻo ʻia ʻo ka hoʻopili ʻana i kahi uku 4.5-ton a i ʻole ka hoʻohana ʻana i kahi uku 820-kilogram he kumu no ka hoʻolauleʻa ʻana ma Saudi Arabia.

He aha nā lako palekana i hoʻokomo ʻia? He aha ka helu palekana? 6/10

ʻAʻole nui ka ʻōlelo e pili ana i ka palekana. Loaʻa iā ʻoe nā ʻeke ea ʻeono, ABS, kūpaʻa a me ka hoʻokele traction, nā mea ʻike kaʻa hope, ka mana hoʻokele trailer a ʻo ia nō.

ʻAʻohe AEB, mākaʻikaʻi makapō, a i ʻole kekahi mea ʻē aʻe e kōkua iā ʻoe e hoʻokele i ka pilikia o ke kaʻa ʻana i kēlā kaʻa nui.

Hele mai me ka nui piha o ka hao hao. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Palapala hōʻoia a me ka helu palekana

Palapala Hoʻopaʻa Kumu

3 makahiki / 100,000 km


palapala hoʻokō

Ka helu palekana ANCAP

ʻEhia ke kumukūʻai o ka loaʻa ʻana? He aha ke ʻano hōʻoia i hāʻawi ʻia? 6/10

E like me nā mea pale, aia ka makana nona ma ka ʻaoʻao kula kahiko, akā e manaʻo ʻia ia mai kahi mīkini i manaʻo ʻole ʻia e nā mea lawe mai e kūʻai aku i nā haneli o ka mahina.

Loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi palapala hōʻoia 100,000 km ʻekolu makahiki a me ke kōkua ʻaoʻao o ke alanui.

O ia wale nō. Eia naʻe, hāʻawi ʻia kēia kaʻa he hale hana i hoʻololi ʻia (local) RHD hoʻololi, ʻaʻole like me kekahi o kāna mau mea hoʻokūkū kūʻokoʻa i lawe ʻia a hoʻololi ʻia, hele mai ia ma lalo o ka palapala hoʻokō. No laila ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻopiʻi maoli.

ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke haʻalele i ka nui, ke kaumaha, ka makewai, a me ke kumukūʻai o ka RAM Warlock. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Pehea ke ano o ke kalaiwa? 7/10

Hoʻokahi mea aʻu i ʻike ai e pili ana i ka RAM a me nā mea hoʻokele F-series ʻo ia ka mea e maʻalahi lākou. ʻAe, aia ka mea maʻamau o ka swindler-asshole, akā loaʻa i nā mea nona ka Mitsubishi Mirage. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu koʻu ʻike ʻana i ke kumu.

ʻO ka nui o kēia mea pono ʻoe i ka hui like ʻana o kēlā me kēia. Hoʻokahi neʻe hewa a e huki ana ʻoe i nā hatchbacks mai nā mea piʻi a me nā SUV mai kona ʻūhā.

ʻO ke kaʻa ʻana e like me ka pupule e hoʻopōʻino iā ia iho, a ʻo kēlā me kēia ulia ka hopena i ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana i ka hoʻohana ʻole ʻia o nā mea kaua o ka luku nui. Ua makaʻu au o haki paha koʻu alanui i kāna paona 2600 kg a me ka pahu piha o 98 lita.

Ma muli o kona nui, ʻo nā huila ʻeleʻele 20-inihi nui e hakakā nei e hoʻopiha i nā ʻaaka. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Nui loa nā aniani ʻaoʻao, me ka hoʻololi iki ʻana, e hana maikaʻi nā ʻelua o nā puka MX-5 e like me nā uhi hope. ʻO ia hoʻi he hiʻohiʻona kupaianaha kāu a puni, mahalo i ka nui o ke aniani.

Mai kēia kiʻekiʻe, hiki iā ʻoe ke kamaʻilio maʻamau me nā mea hoʻokele kaʻa Hino a me nā mea hoʻokele kaʻa, akā ʻo kēia kūlana kauoha pū kekahi i kahi ʻike ʻike ʻole o ke alanui.

He lohi ka hoʻokele, a he ʻino iki ka hoʻokele plastik i nā lima. Eia naʻe, ʻoluʻolu nā noho ākea ākea, a ʻo ka pale media nui e hoʻopili nani i ka puʻupuʻu nui.

ʻO ka loko, he plastic, me ka hoʻolālā exuberant. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

He mea paʻakikī ke kaʻa me ka ʻole o nā kāmera mua a i ʻole nā ​​​​mea ʻike kaʻa, no laila pono e hoʻoponopono ʻia kēlā mau mea āpau.

Ma ke ʻano ʻAmelika ʻoiaʻiʻo, ua nāwaliwali ke alanui a ua ʻike ʻia ka pedal brake me ka ikaika nui, no laila ʻaʻohe hopena ʻaoʻao ke neʻe i ka huila.

Eia nō naʻe, ʻoluʻolu loa ka throttle, me ka pane haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa maikaʻi, e like me kāu e manaʻo ai mai kahi Hemi V8 maoli. Hoʻomaʻemaʻe a maʻemaʻe ka neʻe ʻana o ka rig, a inā hiki iā ʻoe ke lohe i ka leo o ka hoʻokomo ʻana, maikaʻi ia.

ʻO nā noho nui a ākea ka ʻoluʻolu. (Kiʻi: Peter Anderson)

Hoʻopili maikaʻi ʻia ka pahu pahu pahu ʻewalu no ke kaumaha a me ka mana, maikaʻi nō hoʻi. A he mālie loa ke ala kaʻa, koe wale nō ka rustle o nā aniani i ke kahawai ea.

A hoʻomaha loa ka holo ʻana ma luna o kēlā mau kaila ʻeke nui, ʻo ka ʻae ʻana i ka hele ʻana i nā kihi a me nā pōʻai.

ʻO ka hoʻoholo

ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke haʻalele i ka nui, ke kaumaha, ka makewai, a me ke kumukūʻai o ka RAM Warlock, akā hoʻokahi pule i loko o kāna mau clutches ua hōʻoiaʻiʻo iaʻu inā makemake ʻoe, ʻaʻole lākou he manaʻo maikaʻi ʻole, pōkole o ka pōʻino ʻino. ʻAʻole au e kūʻai ia i hoʻokahi miliona mau makahiki mai kēia manawa, akā kahaha wau i ka nui o nā mea pā i loaʻa iā ia. ʻO ko mākou hoalauna ʻē aʻe, ʻo ka hui hoʻolālā Instagram o kaʻu wahine, nā mea nona nā ʻoihana liʻiliʻi, a ʻo ka mea kupaianaha loa, ʻo koʻu kuhina pule.

ʻAʻole maopopo iaʻu i ka hoʻopiʻi ʻē aʻe ma mua o kona pono, akā ʻaʻole hiki iaʻu ke hoʻopaʻapaʻa me ka manaʻo he ikona ia a he mea hana nui loa no nā mea kālepa super. He kumukūʻai paha ʻo Warlock, akā ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi ma mua o kāna mau mea hoʻokūkū, loaʻa iā ia kahi palapala hōʻoia kūpono, a he helu kupaianaha o nā mea kūʻai aku e nānā iā ʻoe.

Ua ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka Warlock i ke ʻano o ka nohona ma mua o ka huki ʻana i ka ukana, akā ua aneane wau e hilahila ke ʻae aku ua aneane lanakila ia iaʻu.
