best pickup in the philippine market now

They redesigned their manual tranny system to cope with the addt'l power. The peak torque of the manual MS for example is 400 nm, 50nm higher than the auto. Its is almost 80nm higher than the previous non-vgt MS. So they did something different indeed.

gls-v AT with paddle shifters na pala. Ayos!!

Sure na ba talaga yan? All stations sell Euro 4 diesel? Somehow I find that our Revo still prefers Caltex diesel over Seaoil or even Shell V-Power. Mas smooth ang engine at mas malakas humatak.

Hindi pa ata euro 4 ang lahat ng stations. As per the revo, I believe it prefers the non-euro 4 kasi low sulfur na ang euro-4 which is better suited to CRDI's with electric fuel pumps and piezo injectors. If I'm not mistaken, mas mababa lubricity ng euro 4 pero mas maganda emissions if mated to crdi's. For traditional diesels with mechanical injection pumps that rely on the fuel itself for lubrication, mas ok pa rin yata yung traditional diesel fuels.

I have a diesel too, and I mix 2T oil (250ml/55 liter full tank) when filling up, and I even add more pag euro 4 diesel (300ml/55 liters) for added lubricity. Works for me.

Siyempre mas mura maintenance ng manual. But an AT is more convenient esp now with paddle shifters.

^^ if only dmaxsiado's comments are as proper/discreet/prudent as niky's post (like the one above) and not overly condescending and arrogant, he would be revered as highly as few contributors here (both to their opinions and their person)

sorry OT... cant help it... (it would be fun to have him back though ahihi... ahoho)

dmaxiado's comments showed that he is knowledgeable and experienced about pick ups. It is unfortunate that he chose to argue with the mod bordering on imprudence.

Well... there's the D4D thing. Not all pervasive, but I just talked to someone (who had never been online but is a member of a diesel car enthusiast group) who had heard of them.

And last week, I saw a relatively new Hilux drop-side stop at a gas station... fill up on diesel... then refuse to start.
