Sir Rovin99, you are getting the wrong information. Strada is the best!
I have driven a Nissan Navarra and a Ford Ranger. I have a friend who rode a Toyota Hilux and my Strada.

Tama sila Rovin99, nung una hindi ku gusto strada kasi sa mga negative comments dito sa thread same also yung porma, pero kakabasa ku sa thread dito, na convince ku na ito ang magiging first new ride ku and then habang tumatagal some minor issues lang ang lumalabas overall the enjoyment i received from my truck is the best.

[altec]

Totoo po bang hindi maganda suspension ng strada when off road at umuuyog po ba daw yung bed sa mga lubak-lubak?

Sir Rovin99, Your info is totally inaccurate. The Strada has the best ride even for offroading. Hindi lang siya ganun ka heavy duty if you plan to load it up AND do offroading. If that's what you are mean, then the Hilux may be the better option.

Please read this comparison I did, which is based on FIRSThand experience.


My uncle got a 2010 Hilux E which I got to use, then I turned around and bought a 2.5 GLX Strada. So I got 1st hand experience, but with the 2010 models. Aside from what was mentioned, I'd like to add:

1. The Hilux body length is officially at 5255mm, versus the Strada at 5040. to compare, the Dmax is 4995, while the old Isuzu Fuego was 4980. If you are the type who likes your pickup to be extra large (american truck type), the Hilux is extra large, even longer than the Navarra which is officially at 5230. Some garage cannot accomodate vehicles that are longer than 5 meters.
2. Partly because of the longer body, the turning radius of the Hilux is wiiide. In contrast, the Strada has very good turning radius.
3. The suspension, though in paper is similar in design, but its actual ride is kilometers apart. The strada's ride is carlike, while the hilux is very rugged. Good for offroading, bad for city driving in not so good roads. How bad? Let me put it in two ways: 1st, my uncle eventually had his hilux's rear suspension adjusted with aftermarket installations (di ko alam actually kung ano, and the ride improved, but still much harsher than the Strada). 2nd, when my other cousin's wife heard we were getting pickup trucks, sabi niya that my cousin also drools of getting a pickup. Sabi ko sa wife, kung gusto niya ng pickup, I suggest she influence my cousin towards the strada. Why, she asked. My answer: With the Strada, you can keep your boobs at your chest level. But with the Hilux, baka after one year, nasa belt level na ang boobs mo sa sobrang talbog. Unless gusto manood ang cousin ko ng bouncing boobs, pero baka mabangga kayo.
Pero someone mentioned somewhere in the archived strada thread that their mining operation sold all their stradas and shifted to hiluxes because the strada was not rugged enough for their operation. Strada's suspension is geared for the city user, thus the softer setup. While the Hilux is geared more for ruggedness. So its your call what sort of ride you prefer, depending on your use.
4. Back seat legroom is basically the same.
5. Cargo box with the Strada is smaller capacity than the Hilux.
6. Hilux has a much nicer rear bumper (stainless) while Strada's rear bumper is not as durable.
7. Though both are 2.5 Liter displacement, as mentioned the horsepower levels are worlds apart. As such, the Strada needs more engine oil (around 8 liters) versus the Hilux (around 6 liters), which means higher PMS cost. I have to pull out the records of both the Strada and Hilux to compare the costs of the other consumables like the air, oil, and fuel filters. But I think overall the Strada's PMS is more expensive than the Hilux.

salamat sa reply sir! follow up question... kailangan ko pa ba ng offset sa ganung size? customized rims yung kukunin ko. i can dictate kung ano offset. my concern is hindi sana sumayad sa wheel well (and syempre lumawit ng konti). wala ako fender flares/moulding.

Congrats sir sa new ride. Ako di nako nakapagpigil kaya 2011 ang kinuha ko haha.

By the way mga Sir, would you know if I can put on something sa key ng strada glx-v? Sobrang bare niya ang parang ang nipis kasi. Yung tipong parang duplicate siya. Kung may malalagay lang sana sa head nung key itself para mas presentable.

Salamat Sir

Ano po ba itsura nung 2011 na key? kasi yung sa akin parang yung pinost dun sa last page, yung may silicone cover. Di ko kasi alam baka ganun din yung sa 2011. Integrated na yung alarm sa key.

Strada owners,

Just wondering if you have inspected your Strada's fuel Filler Neck Tank?(not sure what's it called?)

I've got a 2010 model Strada that is barely 2 yrs old with a little under 60K mileage. And just recently after opening the gas cap I noticed rust accumulating inside the "neck of the fuel filler".

I'm not sure if this is common among diesel fuel users and definitely it's not suppose to happen.

I think the logical thing to do is have it inspected at Citimotors first thing tomorrow.

Anyone has the same problem as mine?
