sir what do you mean exactly when you say drive-by-wire?

AFAIK yes but Im not too sure, because according to my mechanic most of the injection system is already fully computerized...we've talked about this topic when I ask him na "hindi ba malulunod yung engine kahit na ipress mo yung silinyador ng hindi umaandar?" and he replied "hinde na sir, kasi computerized na halos lahat with regards sa fuel injection"

Now if your trying to say that the MS and strada has that drive by wire whatever it is

and it has an electronic throttle then I suppose it is...

but I do believe that it has nothing to do with the loss of power and faulty electricals, because AFAIK all the mitsu dealerships were all able to remedy it by just fixing the fuel sensor[SIZE="2"](im not so sure about the technical term)[/SIZE] and the issue of the fuel suction component sucking air from the tank...

Thanks for the info sir. so ibig sabihin, it's a minor issue na maayos din agad? so elwynvn's problem should be fixed anytime soon quickly with no drama at the dealership?

Congratulations, nanofossil. At last, an end to your sleepless nights. Siguradong mahimbing na tulog mo. Baka sa panaginip kasama mo pa rin strada mo, hehehe.

Sige, sir, we will wait for the pics that you will post.

ang unang mod ko.... rosary on the rear view mirror. hehehehe.

Hehehe... no doubt, true-blooded pinoy ka. Image pa ni Mama Mary sa dashboard para kumpleto na.

Kung habol mo porma kahit mabasa ang gamit mo sa cargo bed then roll-up is for you. But it you want to protect your things and keep you cargo bed dry for the life of your strada then go for a sport lid or top-up.

Carryboy roll-up lid cover is not waterproof, Carryboy itself say. Yung sinasabi nila na ang Pace Edwards roller-up lid cover ay waterproof, that is true for the first 6-12 months. Over time, the hinges or connections loosens then that's the end of its being "waterproof". Kung sa porma, maporma sya. Kung practicality ang pag-uusapan, hindi sya practical.

Just a piece of advise.

thanks, i guess i'll go for the topup. any idea on the price and advice where i can get a good one. Miggyboy is on top of my list but it's topup is around 35k.
