Mas tahimik makina ng Nissan Frontier.

Less vibrations din. Baka yun? hehe

Yup. Hindi nga masyadong manginig ang Frontier.

fuegos, ipvs, crosswinds share the same timing gear driven valve train engine except the 4ja1 belt driven.
mitsubishi either uses a belt (4d56) or a chain (4m4s)
nissan usually uses chains.

my opinion is better get the isuzu powered trucks. just avoid the belt driven ones. sturdiest among the three, cheaper and very much available parts. nissan parts is not that cheap compared to the 2 brands. mitsubishi is fine but then again i'll go with the old school isuzu for business purposes. i.e. assuming the owner will not be the daily driver of the truck.

just my opinion friends.

kung sa nginig ng makina eh di isuzu na lang para parating gising sa vibrations yung driver at hindi antukin. baka bumangga pa. gastusin na naman ng may-ari kung ganun. hehehe

Isa pa.....iwasan ang mga de-turbong makina. kung sa business gagamitin malamang madaling masira ang turbo sa patay agad pagkatapos tumakbo ang makina at takbo agad pagka-istart ng makina.

hehehe, pupuwede rin yang punto mo. Pero matipid nga isuzu na Direct Injection na kaya for business mas reco ito at yung NA nga at iwas turbo. Dagdag gastos yan kapag hindi iisa driver at minsan, makalimutan na 'wag papatayin agad makina after heavy or long drives.

*Ry_Tower-Haha! Baka yun nga.

*topic-Anong business ba daw yung gagamitan ng pick-up? AFAIK, yung strada has the biggest bed. I may be wrong.

Strada IMO yung pinaka-pogi sa same time na mga pick-ups. Kaya naging best seller din before.

malaki din nag bed niya, comparable nasa sa Isuzu. Mas maliit ata yung sa nissan. I might be wrong though, visual est lang eh.

Ewan ko kung ako lang nakakapansin pero I find the Nissan Frontier Bravado pogi pa rin up to now. Lalo na if its dark gray.

I'm biased for the Frontier (also used one back in college). But given that its second hand, keep your choices open and get one that is in the best condition at your price.

The Strada wins in comfort (best ride of the bunch) but the Frontier or Isuzu will win in terms of engine durability (na engine). The Isuzu will get the best FC amongst the bunch while the Frontier 3.2 a/t will be more on the thirsty side (around 7km/L to 8km/L AFAIK).
