i used to be a car lover......but things change i want a 4x4pick up naman. please post your comments which is best in your own opinion. Strada or Ranger? ? ?

Thanks!

on the two choices you made, strada. it is the best riding pick-up in its class, classy interior, nice looks and is powerful also. the only plus of the ranger is its powerful engine. why not consider the D-Max. or you can wait for the upcoming Hi-lux.

[pepengtom]

consider isuzu D-MAX

We have both the strada and the ranger, bought on the same day. So far the strada has 165k kms on it and rides better than the ranger and with more amenities. The ranger on the other hand has only 50k kms on it at ayon nasa shop ngayon dahil biyak ang cylinder head. Go for the Strada. It looks better too!

Ranger!

For the ride, go for Strada.
For the pulling power, go for Ranger.
I think (think lang di ko pa kasi nada-drive), both of them are capable sa offroad, although the Ranger has better review of offroading sa www.motioncars.com... but owners of Strada here can attest that this ride is also very capable sa offorad.

Ranger has larger truck bed, very basic sa interior, not like the Strada it is more pleasing inside.

OT. I have two of my friends having problem on the transmission of their Strada, na fix naman, pero sirain nga ba ang transmission ng Strada?

if you have the dough, go for a d-max. but as for the two, it really depends on your taste. personally, i like both. but if you'll consider styling over performance, then get a strada perhaps. but if you want more muscle, go for a ranger instead-though it lacks the styling.

palerider47::: What's the primary duty of your pickup? Do you plan to haul stuffs in it, do 4wheeling in the near future? The models you have compared have its own ups and downs.

don't want to bash the dmax but as if now dyda me sa isuzu di engines nila kc d kaya ng engines yung poor diesel natin. i think the dmax ownrs will know wat i mean in a year or 2 wen ur injectors ****up.

[KCboy]

overall strada nalang. luks better than the ranger n u won't have problems with parts kc 4d56 yan!!!!!!

[kimpOy]

siyempre love thy own!

STRADA!!!
pinaka magandang ride sa lahat ng pickups

baka gusto mo 2000 model with lotsa goodies
contact woodfire dito din sa tsikot.

ako din, strada. parang kotse ang interior and ang ganda ng styling versus the ranger.

a lot say that the engine of the ranger is more powerful. that may be the case but i don't think that will make up for what it lacks in looks and comfort and interior amenities.

Ranger has LSD while Strada got audio setup.

[notEworthy27]

I totally agree with Ungas! hehe It really depends on where your going to use your pickup.But then again, my vote goes to my own! hehe STRADA AKO! Sounds amenities all bang for the buck. Besides, you won't bring your newly bought ride off-roading right away right? Or I could be worng. :D

mahal ba ang lockers para sa strada?

Air Lockers will generally cost around Php 50k irregardless of vehicle model.

Although there are mechanical lockers available from TJM and other reputable manufacturers.

Personally, its the Strada for me. The latest ones really look cool and the 4d56/matic combo will suit me just fine (I don't mind the slowness).
