But if one has the extra cash to spare, heck this is one good truck IMO.
Some features are not found in Strada,
specially the Body SIZE. and the Engine.
5 cyclinder 3.2L vs 4 cylinder 2.5L..
If same proper maintenance and same load is applied,
It's very clear the 5 cylinder is less stressed and will outlast the 4 cylinder.

And for looks,
many strada owners, need to spend money and accessories to be a looker.
Masyado kasi madami sa kalsada.
Does the accessories has good resale value?

driving the BT-50, all stock at banawe, shell gas station.
It catches lot of attention. Some says parang F-150 sa laki.

stepping all down the accelerator.,
you can feel the wheel propels the heavy body forward,
Parang nag wala yun speedometer needle sa dashboard.

The only thing that will come into your mind is..
will you be able to STOP this beast if someone suddenly
someone crosses the road.
