Sa Marcos highway ko kinuha yung sakin since it's a bicycle away lang samin at convenient. Marami ngang lalabas na pickup maybe this year.. pero hindi ko na rin naintay.. and since 2013 lang naman ito nilabas dito sa Pinas (2012 on other countries).. bago bago pa rin at matagal-tagal pa ito papalitan haha. Na surprised ako sa feature na powered folding side mirrors.. akala ko hindi kasama yun sa LS haha. At natuwa ako sa Fuel economy.. sa laki at bigat neto ang tipid pa rin sa gas. Although I am not the most efficient driver.. I am happy with the power/economy ratio na nakukuha ko.

Ang alam ko yang rustproof is done before the vehicle is released. Wala pa akong pina rustproof na vehicle namin. Baka undercoat ang iniisip mo kasi yan ung pinapa spray at an added cost. Or baka naman "extra" rustproof yan na pampadami sa "freebies". Yun tipong kunwari ipapa rustproof pero hindi naman pala kasi rustproofed na.hehe

If in a very impossible timing, that the new Hilux will be released mid of this month, at makaka test drive agad ng unit, baka mag Toyota kami. Kaso, mukhang malabo talaga, well malabo talaga! Hahahah.

Oh, that got me confuse re rustproof and undercoat. Yung black ba na iniispray sa chassis, wheel well, at suspension underpinnings, is the rustproof?

^ Last line is more on undercoat IMHO

*bugoys: Yes, undercoat ung color black na ini spray nila. Rustproof is a different thing.

After trying the full tank method in my Dmax, I was impressed! Ang nakalagay sa ave FC is 10 kms/liter. Ang full tank method is 11.2++ kms/liter. Not bad for a 6+ yr old city driven vehicle. Mas matipid kaysa sa 2.5 D4D SG namin na 8.++ kms/liter. Pero A/T naman kasi un. With the gas prices now, ang total na naipapalagay ko sa Dmax ay less than 1.2k pesos ata. I go to Unioil Regalado, Fairview and their diesel is 27.05/liter.

*bugoys: I didn't avail the undercoat in the dealer. Instead, when I had that roller lid installed in Carryboy before, I also got their rubberized spray on for the bed and undercoat.
