[StockEngine]

Holden Colorado LTZ vs Ford Ranger XLT vs Toyota HiLux SR5 216 review | comparison | CarsGuide

I wonder if chevy ph will have the same pricing.

Anyways a good read. Looks like the new trailblazer will have a good suspension like its pickup sibling.

As a Toyota Hilux 2016 owner and test driven the new Ranger and Colorado from various dealerships and friends my honest opinion as follows,


Exterior, - Preference

1. Ford Ranger (Tough macho front look)
2. Toyota Hilux (Slender and ***y arcs and contours)
3. Chevrolet Colorado (Look was copied from a Chevy sedan or something because doesn't look like a truck )


Interior, - Preference

1. Ford Ranger (More tech-savvy features, leather interior)
2. Toyota Hilux (Sleek and cheeky, spacious cabin, if you are a tall person get this one also it has a cooler/chiller)
3. Chevrolet Colorado (Cool gauge huds but ugly plastic interior, rofl mad? sue me )


Performance (Efficiency), - For City Driving

1. Toyota Hilux (New diesel engines more efficient and cleaner than ever)
2. Chevrolet Colorado (CRDi)
3. Ford Ranger (great power comes with great fuel demand rofl)


Performance (Power), - For Towing

1. Ford Ranger (2.2 is weak as hell don't tow or full the payload with it, if you are going to get a 2.2 might as well get the wildtrak or the other two)
2. Toyota Hilux
3. Chevrolet Colorado


Performance (Acceleration),

1. Chevrolet Colorado
2. Toyota Hilux
3. Ford Ranger


Suspension (Comfort),

1. Ford Ranger
2. Chevrolet Colorado
3. Toyota Hilux (My first hand experience doing light off road and going through streets with many potholes is that it's shaky during slow driving but flies like an angel during fast driving on these terrain)


Suspension (Payload),

1. Toyota Hilux (shaky ride but the suspension doesn't even feel like it has weight on it, First hand experience filled with 700 KGs of farming and construction materials)
2. Ford Ranger
3. Chevrolet Colorado


Water Wading,

1. Ford Ranger (tied with Colorado)
2. Chevrolet Colorado (tied with Ranger)
3. Toyota Hilux (As an owner I tested it through 3 feet of flood water in a flood prone area beside a river a few weeks ago after being lost no water inside engine block or cabin).


Resale Value, - It shouldn't matter if you are not planning to sell it

1. Toyota Hilux
2. Chevrolet Colorado
3. Ford Ranger


Aftersales service, - Things get serious here

1. Toyota Hilux (Been to few service centers so far I've been treated like a king but I've heard of a few assholes dealers)
2. Chevrolet Colorado
3. Ford Ranger (notorious and infamous for their criminal service I meant customer service)


Reviews,

1. Chevrolet Colorado (so far no long term negative stuff yet)
2. Toyota Hilux (you can't base it on the old Hilux since it's built brand new from the ground up so the first batch are the lab rats including me, so far the only issue is the cranky transmission due to a ECU software configuration that can be reprogrammed for free under warranty and the noise has no long lasting affect on the transmission albeit a noisy inconvenience. Experienced it first hand sometimes when I am reversing slowly.)
3. Ford Ranger (oh boy, this truck has issues, even the American built Ford trucks has issues in their home country. It's built tough but it's not for the long term and when it has a lower resale value compared to the two)

I guess you havent reseaeched engine issues for the 2.8 duramax.



385nm 2.2 is weak? Wow

The question here is, was he able to drive it with a tow? or was he just basing it coz of its only a 2.2-- I was able to tow a 2 ton genset with ease using the 2.2 ranger. .. eh parang wala lang tow eh...

Too many factors such as vehicle condition, road condition, trailer condition, and even weather. Off-the-box i will always consider the displacement difference as starting factor, which may have an edge in certain conditions.

[minicarph]

Pinaka-maganda Ford Ranger Wildtrak coz of it's dashboard snd instrument clusters. Lahat electronic. Parang yun sasakyan ni Jason Bourne na Dodge Charger na pinanghabpl niya sa Las Vegas.

All others analog, eeww

Ako nga 3.2 dala-dala ko ngaun pero hindi ko na pinapansin yan, kung pwede nga lang walang i-tow kasi. Im always form over function kind of guy.

Yun nga SF ko na sa 7-seater. Di ko na inaamin na 7-seater, ayaw ko kaya mag-aangkas

Masyado naman maselan sa performance, cant we just drive a 3.2 dahil lang sa porma and not those hauling stuff. Meron naman na L300Fb na na-hire sa paligid

Based my opinion towards the Duramax engines with varying friends who own them they all bought them brand new, so far so good but yes I am aware of some of the issues that plague the Duramax but it's more of the old and new technology ones and the difference of Thailand and US made engines.

The question here is, was he able to drive it with a tow? or was he just basing it coz of its only a 2.2-- I was able to tow a 2 ton genset with ease using the 2.2 ranger. .. eh parang wala lang tow eh...

Driven the 2.2 wildtrak towing a cargo trailer with more than 1700/1800 kg on it and the bed with a payload of about 600 kg. Yes if it's upto speed the difference is negligible but I tried going through some hill areas starting from 0 and it was having just a bit of difficulty but still did the job. I'm not sure if it's that particular truck or if it's all the truck in the 2.2 range but that's just merely my opinion based on my experience. Said owner is a friend who owns farm lands thoughout south luzon, he gave away the 2.2 to his son for college and bought a 2.8 Hilux simply because he opinionated that the Ranger is a beauty that shouldn't be playing with mud :P his words not mine btw.

Ako nga 3.2 dala-dala ko ngaun pero hindi ko na pinapansin yan, kung pwede nga lang walang i-tow kasi. Im always form over function kind of guy.

Well if you can afford the extra prestige of it that's not a problem I was just making sense for the bang for the buck practicality. Ranger is indeed a ***y beast still infatuated with her looks as a Hilux owner.

Ako ayaw ko talaga ng pickup eh, dami ko na sinabihan dito wag mag-pickup.

Pero iba talaga Ranger Wildtrak 3.2. premium luxury car na nga sa tingin ko pagbabasehan ang toys, ang di ko lang gano gusto eh yun seats, di pa ginawa lahat leather, meron pang parang sako na texture, dumihin yun

And this car drives so easy, mas mabigat pa manibela ng CRV ko considering this a diesel truck

----

Pansin ko lang this engine doesnt use the common diesel 15w-40. It uses the same spec as my Explorer with The Motorcraft 5W-30 FS.

I guess ford didnt differientiate their petrol vs, diesel engines na by using the same oil. american technology . Magaling naman talaga ford sa fuel, dahil sila lang mahilig mag flex fuel, now they're running diesels like gasoline

Yan ang hinde alam ng iba, kaya ambibigat ng pickup nyo i-drive

Regarding sa leather seat I personally prefer fabric over leather, kapag bago lang maganda ang leather pero to maintain it kailangan mo pa ng conditioner para di mag crack.

Na gagasgas ang leather (nasusugatan) lalo kung may a sharp metal adorment ang pantalon.

Kahit naka aircon kapag pawisin ka mahirap kapag leather lalo kapag naka short lang ako at nakadikit ang hita ko sa leather seat sigurado ang pawis.

Para sa akin mas maganda ang fabric seat at lagyan nalang ng perforated leatherette seat covers para solve ang stain worries at nakaka hinga ng maiwasan ang pagpapawis.

New comparo between the new colorado and the ranger. Interesting read. Fuel consumption is improved on the colorado.

Is the 2.2 Ranger XLT AT really not a good choice? Is it true that it is dependent on the turbo? Meaning baka di magtagal ang turbo and it's not cheap to replace or fix. First hand owner sana and recommendation.

Ranger owner here.. proven workhorse na ranger ko... no major issues... just a blown turbo hose.. and busted tail lights bulb.. now at 82k kms... loading half ton engines, 35-45 sacks of rocks and sand.. on steel bumpers... lifted.. big tires... only 3-5secs cool down.. on normal driving... Kung mag papalitan na ako ng pickup I'll choose again the ranger... I'm thinking of selling my old 2014 ranger and buy the new model...
