    :D Hello everyone!

    I am planning to purchase a pajero fieldmaster '03 or the isuzu trooper. though i have no experience with either since they are both diesel suv's (automatic and on road usage only, sunroof or vcd aspect not important), WHICH IS BETTER!?? :?:

    answers from experienced owners and fanatics appreciated:
    - any problems regarding smoke belching after 3 to 5 years?
    - any brake or tranmission problems?
    - is it a bumpy ride?
    - will i be having a problem later since its a diesel engine?
    - is it noisy?
    - which is more comfortable?

    any suggestions would help. Thanks! :lol:

    Hmmm I have a trooper... so far experience ko...

    1. smoke belching - mausok pero nawawala you just have to let it all out once in a while (rev. in hi-rpm)
    2. So far wala pang problem coz it's still new
    3. the ride is car like... but not comparable to sedans... pero ok na rin.
    4. the trooper is known because of its engine... 160 hp!
    5. di naririnig sa loob yung engine noise... if ever bearable naman, also di mo maramdaman ang vibration ng makina... kung meron man mahina lang.


    hope this can help u decide

    if youre gonna buy now, as in now, go for the trooper.

    the pajero is going to be replaced soon............. very soon. If it features the new 4M41 engine, it will have THE most powerful diesel engine in its class (185hp). Thats a big if though. It will be more comfy on-road coz full independent suspension na yon.

    If you can wait. go for the Gen3 Pajero. Did i mention it looks pretty pretty hot? :D

    my $0.02

    Oo nga wait for the new Pajero. Yung Trooper at Pajero ngayon parehong born noong 1992. Hehehe. Ang tatanda na.

    Pero both of them are actually good.

    Nag-Pajero lang ako dahil ito yung meraming magandang examples sa 2nd hand market and ito yung mura ang piyesa, eh.

    I would suggest the trooper due to its engine. But the Pajero would also be a good choice due to its reliability and availability of parts.
