Hi steemians .. This time I will write about the old cars are still in the happy in the world of offroad. Offroad started to be a fun hobby. From the young people to the parents. They love to explore muddy dirt roads for adventurous pleasure
Literally Understanding Off-road is driving a vehicle outside the highway, whether it is a dirt road, mud, sand, river, or rock that is still in the condition as it is. Or in other words travel by motor vehicle outside the paved road.
One of the old cars that are still in the fight in the offroad world is Daihatsu Taft F50. Daihatsu Taft first generation generation car known in Indonesia is often referred to as his car Bandit apart from Toyota Hardtop. Due to toughness and stubborn engine, this car is perfect for you to take Offroad or to extreme areas though. The next generation of taft kebo is Taft GT twin from Daihatsu Feroza which is gasoline, while for Taft kebo generation and Taft GT use diesel type.
Taft Badak or Taft Kebo is the name for Daihatsu Taft F50 in indonesia.
Daihatsu Taft F50 adopted indirect injection diesel engine with DG code, with a capacity of 2.500cc. According to the current sales brochure, Taft Kebo diesel is capable of generating power of 66 HP at 3,600 RPM and maximum torque reaching 157 Nm at 2,200 RPM. Although his energy is small, but capitalize the torque of that size is sufficient enough to be used in the offroad area because the body weight is only 1 ton, moreover he relies on a similar propulsion system like the F10 variant.
In terms of impressions, nothing is reliable from Taft Kebo or Taft Badak. The car is slow, narrow and the bang is very loud. From the name is enough to prove if this car is more suitable for playing mud. If you think Suzuki Jimny or Daihatsu Taft is loud enough, then you are totally wrong. Because the dings are really inhumane for everyday use.
