This top-of-the-range vehicle is certainly not for everyone. An initial outlay of $36,199 CAN ($29,999 the US) is required for the single-cab premium version (3 seats). The NorthStar Ultimate Crew version (6 seats) requires an effort of CAN$60,499 (US$49,499).
Is it affordable for everyone? Probably not, but its purchase price should be seen as an investment and a working vehicle to make its acquisition profitable.
