    Which is the better pickup? With respect to Fuel efficiency, performance, maintenance and parts availability etc.

    Toyota Hilux
    Mitsubishi L200
    Nissan power eagle
    Mazda 2500

    All are 4x2 1995-1997?

    from the choices above,

    1st choice ko hilux
    then strada

    hilux at that model has a better look then the strada at that time,

    reliability wise, both are good, but strada has a dependable engine and has been proven.

    try getting a truck that wasn't use for business as it would have been more taken cared of.

    I reckon that the parts for Toyota's and Mit's are everywhere. Even surplus parts.

    I think it is more important to be able to find a really 'good' 10 yr old pickup, regardless of make, so that you will have less trouble in the first place.

    How does it help you if I say get a Toyota...and when you get your unit, you had to replace a lot of parts. In the end, you might spend more time fixing it than actually enjoying it. my 2 cents.

    ayaw ko lang sa old-school pick-ups na yan is yung legroom for the rar passenger cabin..sikip...

    napakabihira ako makakita ng nagbebenta ng late-model na hilux 4wd(yung pinalitang model)

    L200 and fuego are the most common, yung power eagle series naman, medyo "walang power" sa segment na to.....reliable din naman...

    bung b2500, bibihira din, common is yung b2200-rf pa ang makina.. b2500 WL na ata yung makina, pero non-turbo..
