    Sure, the Lancer might have had decent (definitely not amazing) acceleration in the 90s, but today I doubt it can even outrun a Jazz.

    Compared to all the cars youve driven, which are all decades old, most new cars are more refined, more comfortable, and faster.

    For a lot of people, a pickup truck has it's appeal ... diesel ... high ground clearance ... better value for the price ... sure, it's good for long out of town drives ... and useful heavy rains ... no need to worry about flash floods ... but during normal day to day driving in the city reality will set in ...

    And when the novelty wears off ... you have to live with driving a long vehicle daily whose bed you don't utilize all the time ... assuming you can even use the pickup bed normally to put items in ... it has no cover ... prone to being stolen ... you also have to live with taking more time to park the vehicle in tight spaces ... then there's the stiffer than usual suspension compared to a sedan or crossover ...

    Maybe he had an Evo III?

    The steering is not really that heavy on the Navara.

    If you don't steer a lot.





    -

    What this means is: The electric power steering motor only has so much grunt. Make a turn. Fine. Make two turns, fine.

    Do a six-point turn backing the truck up in a small parking lot and ay-ay-ay!

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Sir, since July 2015, this is exactly my daily drive (about 25-30 km one way to work) , NP300 Navara EL MT, wala naman akong problema for everyday use since maganda talaga ride kahit icompare 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. I chose Navara at that time since budget is 1M and I need a high ground clearance vehicle.

    for everyday use. A pickup is really macho and can haul lots of stuff at the bed. downside is when squeezing through tight driveways and parking spaces. The wide turning radius will give you arm twirling exercises everytime you park.
