    guys, among the two option ano mas fuel efficient and less cost sa PMS? Strada 2.5L GLS- V diesel o Hyundai Tucson 2.0L theta engine gas manual? Ano kaya mas ok sa dalawa?

    yeah, i know na yung isa eh diesel at yung isa eh gas but I trying to figure kung in the long run the other will be more efficient in terms of maintaining the vehicle

    what's great about the strada is it is on a right price (one of the low priced quality pick up in the market) offering power, comfort and quality, good value for money (which is good), what's not great about that is tatagain ka naman sa presyo ng accessories and maintenance, I heard that my college professor had a change oil of his montero sport for 7k at the casa. Hard to imagine but change oil lang?! may ginto yung filter o yung langis.... ?

    Go for the Tucson, since it is gas it would be easy to maintain and spare parts are cheaper than spare parts of a new tech diesel engine.

    sir, yung mga bagong diesel ba (crdi) eh medyo mahal pyesa at kung change oil lang pwede naman yun DIY dba? aside from standard change oil anu ano pa kya ang regular na kailangansa PMS ng cdri o diesel engine?

    since meron kami gasoline vehicle, maintaining petrol powered vehicle eh kabisado ko na pero sa diesel hindi pa. but due to high petrol prices kaya option ko ang diesel like the strada.

    o bat ayaw mo nung automatic na Tucson diesel, matipid rin yun a kahit automatic, that's something great about CRDi engine matipid sila at mas powerful, yun nga lang maintenance cost is pricey, change oil, change crdi oil, svc replacement etc. and picky/maselan sa diesel, you need a good and clean diesel to make sure that your crdi engine runs good. kaya sa mga sikat na gas station nagpapakarga ang maraming naka crdi equipped engine.

    change oil must be performed by a skilled person lalo na kung brandnew yung auto, saka under warranty kasi kaya sa casa muna talaga ang lahat ng service,

    Napakamahal kasi talaga kung magpapachange oil ka sa casa. Mahal na nga ang langis kasi mas marami bibilhin mo at mas mahal na uri din. Pero usually dun sa labor sila nagtataga. If you really want their stuff, It'll probably be better if you buy from them and then have the oil change done by a garage mechanic. That's what we do.

    For me idngomfor the strada, unless you want a crossover suv, matipis talaga ang strada and multi purpose, pwede pang karga pa sa likod.

    Same predicament with the TS here. And the main reason why I'm considering these two is their similar price range. I'm planning of trading-in my wife's i10 this December and thinking to getting a bigger long-drive vehicle. My Adventure, though I love it, simply disappoints me whenever I overtake. Malakas pa ang hatak ng i10, so on three occasions it was used in a 400 km (one-way) travel to Manila. I just pity the cute thing coz of the many road works and pot holes she has to go through.

    We'll use either the pick-up or CUV in going to Manila, usually only the two of us (and shopping bags) will be the passengers. I'll need a vehicle that's good in overtaking and can negotiate DPWH inflicted road-craters. Cost of PMS, reliability and durability are also important factors to be considered. My wife, who will be deprived of her i10, will have to learn driving a m/t vehicle. Btw, I can't, and won't, trade-in my Adventure (just for clarification). He he..

    Since you would not be selling your Adventure, go for the Strada. I honestly find the Tucson's rear seating a bit ok but yung headroom is not so wanting..

    Test drive and decide

    ^ Sir walang test-drive unit dito sa province namin. Nakasakay na ako ng Tucson na bago a few months ago and sobrang natagtagan at nahilo ako sa likod. However, the owner (bagong labas ng casa nuon) did later note that severely over-inflated daw pala mga gulong niya. Which of the two would have the higher resale value?

    If we say ceteris paribus, the strada because it's much more versatile and filipinos love a pick-up in the provinces.

    Hay~... Nakakafrustrate yung Adventure sa highway noh? Yung tipong magoovertake ka pero parang walang pinagkaiba yung speed mo sa kanina kasi more or less naka floor na yung gas? :rofl: At least that's how I felt sa pangharabas namin na diesel Revo. So yung ipagpapalitan mo ay yung i10? As for overtaking, I'm sure both will do it well. Its just that the Strada will do it more aggressively and all the while, consuming much lesser fuel.

Strada 2.5L diesel o Tucson 2.0L gas
