since diesel engine sya bawi naman siguro yung pms cost sa fuel cost?

kamusta rearseat ng np300 okay lang pang long drive?may armrest ba np300 sa likod

Regular PMS cost ng Spin is ranging from 6k to 20k. Medyo mataas pero ang iniisip ko na lang is twice a year ko lang siya dinadala sa CASA. Ang alam ko, every 5000 kms/3 months and PMS ng Chevy and Mitsu Pick up. Mas mataas ng unti ang Chevy. Ung sa NP300, di pa ako nakaupo sa likod since ako ang laging driver. Armrest, wala. May bottle holder ang np300 sa may babang gitna sa likod. Regarding PMS ng NP300, every 5k din ang PMS pero ang may bayad lang ay yung 10k intervals. Check-up lang ang ginagawa sa 5k interval.

Sir Pctech I think test drive na lang you can already make your decision already. Bet ko sa choices ninyo Np300 Strada then Colorado in that order.

Sa mga modern crdi pick ups i only get to ride extensively sa office namin which has a 2014 ranger 2.2 matic and 2011 navara matic. While 6speed yun ranger versus 5speed ng navara di ko kasundo yun ride ng ranger. Nahihilo ako. While all pick ups have this "tagtag" especially unladen may certain edge or sharpness kapag nalubak yun ranger. Parang harsh sya on rebound particularly. That being said our driver also prefers an older 2008 nissan frontier for comfort. Pinalitan na namin with larger toyo open country 285/75 pati pressure 25psi na lang ganun padin.

Also service is medyo expensive. Drive belt cost us about 5k also the drive belt tensioner is another 5k-7k.

Unfortunately I haven't ridden on the latests and current generation of these pickups.

In my opinion, i'll go with strada with it's minimal turning radius and back passenger space. Tha cons though is it has less cargo space. The seating position is high and that's what you want in a truck, you want to see much of the sorroundings as much as possible.

Sir, since July 2015, NP300 Navara EL MT is my daily drive (about 25-30 km one way to work) , wala naman akong problema for everyday use since maganda talaga ride kahit i-compare pa sa previous gen Fort. Malakas talaga power at comfortable din with long drive since naibiyahe ko na both to Quezon and Cagayan province. With the heavy traffic, average consumption is about 9 km/l. Nagkaroon lang ng problema (may abnormal sound) sa steering column assy pero under warranty naman. Casa acknowledged the issue and is just waiting for the replacement part to arrive. Although mine is not the high end, VL 4x4, I hope this still helps.
