Would you really feel safe investing $25K in a truck backed by a company having supply issues in it's own country? They can't keep to a plan and their U.S. importer can't communicate.
GV has been completely quiet within months of a huge launch which means something is seriously wrong. Every bit of information they've provided has been proven wrong. If I am wrong, please show me an accurate statement they've ever made regarding the launch.
The trucks were going to be produced in Ohio but when I checked the local news there, not one story of this. I live in a small town and if Mahindra were talking about building trucks here the news would be talking about it big time. Now, they are going to build them in Canada!
Mr. Perez and GV are pulling something here. If you want to keep waiting go ahead. I am going to the auto show this week in Kanas City and looking for a vehicle. Probably get the VW Jetta Sport Wagon Diesel. Oh yes, has Mahindra showed up at an auto show, ever? Funny, if I were bringing a new vehicle into the U.S. THIS YEAR I would certainly be at the shows.
Good luck guys. I'll check in next year and see how you're doing with the waiting thing.

I agree and don't plan on buying til I have a local dealer, a good long test drive and read alot of buyer reviews. You have to give Mahindra credit for possibly opening up the small diesel truck market again?? Even if their truck is a failure it may kick-start Ford, Honda or Toyota into a diesel for their truck...
