Welcome to my brand-spanking-new blog!

... take a deep breath.... smell the new plastic, unwrap the shrink wrap.
 Ahhhh....

Don't you just love that "new blog" smell?


Welcome to my new blog, 'TriniTruckBlog'. This is just a small site with collections of some thoughts, musings and insights to some of the pickup trucks available in my home country of Trinidad & Tobago.

I've been driving a Nissan Frontier, 2002 model, 3.0 litre turbocharged, direct-injection ZDD30T for almost 3 years now. Ever since I started driving it, I fell in love with the concept of "diesel power" and the frugal fuel-economy of these engines. Couple that with the "cowboy-workhorse-dependability" as well as rugged reliability and my infatuation was sealed: I loved pickup trucks. From hauling 5 bags of cement and 100 bricks, to hauling the family dogs to the beach, to just cruising around town or rushing to work - my pickup does it all for me (and much more).

And yet, there are so many more pickup-truck options available in Trinidad, and I feel pretty enthusiastic about them all (esp. the Ford Ranger and Nissan Navara). I do hope that you'll enjoy reading through my blog, my musings, reviews, test-drives, commentary, rants and technical data that I've gathered through much reading & research about these wonderful vehicles.


Diesel Powah!!!

  1. POWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! like the details here, i wonder if they'd consider bringing holden ute's down, they're a bit niche, but still quite awesome

  2. They do have the Holden ute's here in Trinidad - they're under Chevrolet's brand though: "Chevrolet Colorado".

    It's the twin to the Isuzu DMax, same engine & chassis, just different front fascia.

  3. “I could not have closed on my first home without Mr, Benjamin Lee ! Benjamin and his team went above and beyond for me on this transaction. He handled my very tight turn around time with ease and was always available for me when I had questions (and I had plenty), even when he was away from the office, which I greatly appreciated! He and his team handled many last-minute scrambles with the seller and worked tirelessly to make sure that I could close before my lease (and my down payment assistance, for that matter) expired. Mr Benjamin is an incredibly knowledgeable Loan Officer, courteous, and patient. I went through a couple offers on properties before my final purchase and Benjamin was there to help with each one, often coordinating with my agent behind the scenes. I felt supported throughout the entire process. Thanks to Benjamin and the tireless efforts of his team, I am now a proud homeowner! I would encourage you to consider Benjamin Briel Lee for any kind of loan.Mr, Benjamin Lee Contact informations.via WhatsApp +1-989-394-3740  Email- 247officedept@gmail.com.
