^A friend of mine has a Hilux 2.8 4x4 MT. According to him it is more fuel efficient than their Fortuner 2.4 4x2 AT, which he also described as being lethargic as compared to his Hilux. Superior resale also goes without saying considering the Toyota badge.

No experience with the Navara, but the coil spring rear suspension and platform used by Mercedes for rebadging suggests that it is no pushover. It will definitely win in the comfort department. But then I have also seen my fair share of loaded Navara's with sagging rears.

1. Durable and Reliable-Almost the same
2. Riding Comfort- City Driving goes to Navara. Highway driving goes to Hilux.
3. Easy and Cheap to maintain (hindi mahirap hanapin ang piyesa)- T Badge
4. Looks - Subjective pero Navara get my vote. Hindi ko kasi gusto yung look ng facelifted Hilux.
5. Fuel Consumption- Not quite sure..
6. Value for money (sulit)- Navara
7. Resale value-Hilux

Why do you say that the Hilux is better for highway driving? Brought one to Baguio before - ang tagtag, worse than my old Ranger. Whether as driver or passenger, the ride is quite harsh. With the Ranger, ramdam lang tagtag when you're a passenger in the back but not as a driver. The Navara is even more comfortable than both.

For me kasi, definition ko ng riding comfort is kung magiging comfortable ako driving as driver more than riding as a passenger.

Case in point, MUX and Trailblazer. Mas gusto ko parin i-drive yung TBZ kasi mas firm yung suspension and mas ramdam yung road as compared sa MUX na kapag nasa highway (little bit above legal speed limit), nakakatakot na.

Hilux vigo owner, my route is around 600 kms twice a month check ng customer. Pag dating ko sa bahay sakit ng likod ko. Bought last december ng navara, hindi ganun kasakit ang aking likod. So for me sulit ang navara kung pang long drive at hindi ganun kabigat ang kargahan.

if you will use the pick up truck loaded most of the time, I'll reco the hilux. The issue with the hilux is the riding comfort, but easily remedied with aftermarket suspension. Not too keen on Nissans as they are a headache to maintain longterm. I dont have to elaborate as having owned several 4WD's from different brands

Here is my two cents worth for your query on the subject:

1. Durable and Reliable - Hilux, by a slim margin. Subok na din kasi ang Navara.
2. Riding Comfort - Navara, with its multi-link rear suspension. Besides, the issue with the Hilux is that if fails in the Moose Test.
3. Easy and Cheap to maintain (hindi mahirap hanapin ang piyesa) - Hilux. Parts availability not a problem. Traditional leaf spring suspension requires lesser maintenance than Navara.
4. Looks - Navara. Mas brusko.
5. Fuel Consumption - Based on reviews I think even.
6. Value for money (sulit) - Navara.
7. Resale value - Hilux.

so for hilux, suspension modification (like bilstein, toughdog etc.) is a must?

i wonder why toyota didn't address this issue of tagtag in this new model? i doubt if they are not aware of it.
