Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

For some people cost is the only buying decision worth bothering about and that's what makes Proton's Jumbuck stand out from the crowd. Based on the company's Wira passenger car its had its rear chopped oft and converted into a load bed. There's also been a helping hand from Lotus. a subsidiary of the Malaysian manufacturer.

But well be damned if we can find just where this input went as driving the Jumbuck is as inspiring as a dentist appointment, and laden (645kg max) it feels stressed. However. the 1.5-litre petrol unit spins happily enough. though 86hp will not be setting your pants on fire.

But you have to remember that this is a load carrier on a budget and if your demands are not for an outright weight shifter and money is tight. it begins to flake more sense.
