My dad will use it for our construction business. Me on the otherhand will use it occasionally going to work in makati. What are the pros and cons in getting a 4x2 and 4x4! This is actually our first time to consider getting a pickup.
Lamang ang 4x4 sa mga extreme situations, say aakyat ka ng bundok, o lulusong ka sa tubig. Pero may nagsasabi na mas malakas nang kaunti lang naman sa fuel consumption ang 4x4. Mas mabigat ang mga 4x4 vehicles dahil sa additional transmission and front differential. Opkors, mas mahal ang 4x4. Sa mga pick-ups at SUV's, 4x4 ang mga top of the line models nila.
We will need a truly dependable car and safety and good FC is our main concern! Actually lahat yan gusto ko ano ba pinaka sulit Engineer dad ko
Construction business? What will you be hauling exactly? And where is the usual commute? Do you expect to be piling kilometers big time with this vehicle?
4x4 is a good feature if you will be going to far flung places with horrid road surfaces or no road at all. If you will mostly just be running around the city, the 4x2 is the better choice since the car itself is cheaper, and you also get better gas mileage.
Huwag na magpatumpik-tumpik pa, sabihin na lang natin na dmax ang best! :D
Disadvantage ng Navara mababa ground clearance eh. So kung may balak mag-offroad, baka maging disadvantage ito. Although at high speed driving, maganda 'to, low center of gravity so ibig sabihin mas stable.
So pipiliin ko yung Ranger kasi mas bago kaysa sa Strada at kung hakutan talaga, mas bagay yung Ranger.Not saying hindi kaya ng Strada, mas maporma lang kapag humahakot yung Ranger. :lol:
Ah kung ganun 4x2 na kunin mo para makatipid ka sa krudo. I'd go for the D-Max parin for the best compromise between FC, performance, maintenance and parts cost and supply, cargo space, and purchase price. OK sana ang Ranger pero ang laki ang minahal niya kumpara sa mga iba... For businesses the mantra is always a peso saved is a peso earned.
I just need durability and tama lang na PMS with good fuel efficiency!
Haha!~ Nawala ang ating D-Max expert para dito!
Let me give a few:
pros: excellent fuel efficiency, wide, evenly distributed torque band (1400-3400rpm) excellent for low speed hauling, low(er) maintenance cost and wide parts supply
cons: rather short on top end power, lacking in ride comfort, no new mechanical developments for the last five years or so
