Looked at them all including Izuzu D-Max and Ford Ranger. I would have gone for the Ranger purely on the space and comfort levels in them.
Had older L200 for weekend as a tester and hated it, no room for passengers and skippy at the back with no load, put load - no diesel!!
My experience of Nissan is cheap and cheerful at the price of a good vehicle & very thirsty.
If buying now - would go for Hilux. Brother in law has one and got it chipped, lovely! Very comfy to drive and carries a capable load also (was same pre-chipping just not as quick or fuel economical). Seems to be good deals by Toyota on the commercials too.
Good luck which ever you choose!
