New D-MAX and BT-50 utes. Impossibly stimulating. Finally here, kind of. The bogan horde is strapping on their best blue singlets and doing little wees in their Bisley work trousers and Tradie Lady underwear - such is the ambient level of excitement when not one but two new shitbox utes are deployed after more than a decade of Joan Rivers-inspired facelifts upon facelifts upon facelifts upon facelifts, seemingly without end.  VO G’day John, long time YouTube watcher first time query. I am seriously looking at the 2021 Isuzu D-max and I have found that there are none to be had. It seems that every man and his dog wants one, and I am being told that the delivery date at this stage is January next year. I realise that, that is the way that it is, but with an order and wait type scenario, and the massive amount of people wanting them, is there still a way for you to get them cheaper than the current $58,990 drive away price? I don’t want to waste your time and effort, cause, you know time and money. Whadayareckon? - Andrew  Been getting a lot of this. Such a classic - it’s, like, how to do this wrong. Do not order and wait, if you want to save thousands. Pull yourself back from the brink. Never order and wait. Just wait, then order, when the car is in stock. Isuzu dealers are frothing at the mouth, and perhaps other orifices, because of latent demand in the market. Buyers queueing up, over the horizon.  It seems everyone is dead keen to get out of their old shitbox D-MAX and into an all-new shitbox D-MAX. Demand has swamped supply. And don’t the dealers love it.  My strong advice to Andrew - and perhaps you, if you are caught up in ‘D-MAX fever’ - is just to chill out. Do not pay a deposit. Do not sign a contract. Just wait, dude.  Wait until January - it’s just a few more lockdowns and endless weeks of bushfires, and a fortnight of tolerating her family over Christmas. That’s nothing. You’re match fit here. You can do this.  If you go to a dealership now, and commit, you will pay the full freight, and you will be locked in. If it emerges, between now and delivery, that there are unexpected problems with the new D-MAX, it will cost you thousands to back out.  So just wait. Be a spectator. Halfway through January you might be pleasantly surprised. The first wave of D-MAX delusion might be over by then, and dealers might have unallocated stock on the showroom floor - which is exactly what you want, if you want them to drop their trousers (commercially). And, trust me, nothing is nicer than the sound of a car dealer's trousers hitting the floor - I think you’d agree.  There is no advantage to you - that I can see - to joining the party of imbeciles eager to pay the full freight, lock themselves in at a high price, and queue up and wait.
