sir 5k lahat na ba yun sir, including the roof rails? o ung pinapatungan lang ng bike mismo. pwede kaya yan sa pick up ilagay, o may iba silang parts para pede don hinde sa top, kc hassle sa wind drag. well i'll try to visit their site too. pero sana available d2 sa pinas. thanks sir.

welcome to the thread. let us know your specific model of your strada. who knows, maybe if enough strada owner's there, a club might just come in well and good.

please share anything (positive or negative) about your rides..please check out other thread on the strada (i.e. strada mods, activities, etc).

hope you will become regular on the thread.

I STRONGLY SUGGEST BUYERS THAT HAVE THE INTENT TO BUY PLS HOLD UNTIL PROBLEMS SOLVED!!! AND THAT WAY MITSUBISHI WILL DO SOMETHING ASAP.. I AM A MITSUBISHI AND TOYOTA ENTHUSIAST BUT I ALWAYS SAY NOT ALL MODELS THEY MANUFACTURED ARE GOOD QUALITY! TIPS IN BUYING NEW CARS WAIT UNTIL THE NEW MODEL CAR HITS 50T MILES THEN CONSIDER REVIEWS! MILLION pesos IS NOT THAT EASY TO FIND. NO OFFENSE.

yezzir yan rin fraustrations ko. kaya nga 2008 ko binili ang something na lumabas late 2006. 6260km palang odometer reading ko and i've experienced all these problems. if i-question naman ang driving ko or what not, i still have my '89 toyota 4runner, matanda na ang engine and kalawang na siya but it still works. nakakahatak pa ako ng boat and jetskis and ayos pa lahat. i also drive a subic na toyota lc fj80 and may kalawang na siya, the engine's a turbo diesel and orig right hand drive siya pero salamat naman pero the parts are still more reliable. pwede sabihin na biased dahil toyota naman and hindi mitsu but we have a gen2 pajero and super mas maganda pa ang status ng suspension and steering niya kesa sa what my strada has gone through. even my father's '79 hilux ay buo parin at sinasakyan ng mga troso! our innova ng pang service ng mom ko ay buo parin but it's made in thailand, same engine halos and it's still doing better than my strada. pms lang kinailangan niya. ang strada ko labas pasok sa diamond c5 and sa winterpine. i was leaning onto getting a navarra sana but when i saw the unit mas na-bilib ako sa strada and maganda lang ang navarra sa picture (no offense kanya-kanyang taste) and pag nakaharap lang. ang hassle lang talaga. oh well i've decided to keep the strada muna but if magsira sira ulit siya i will have it repaired and then sell it habang active pa ang warranty niya. sa sobrang daming sira ng strada ko now estimated sa mga receipts ko na 70k+ na ang nagagastos and that's screwed up for a 7 month old truck. in the future, i do not want to spend that much and more just to maintain something which has been breaking down since the beginning. my uncle naka mitsubishi mighty max pa na single cab until now gumagana parin and it performs good for a '77er! well sana nga reliable na mga kinabit and inayos sakin ng mitsubishi coz i'm giving this truck one last chance.

Sir, please avoid posting in all caps... this can be deemed as rudeness in the forums

Nope, it didn't push through. How I wish it did. Para na-test ang light off-road capability nitong stock 4x4 3.2 strada ko. At para lumabas na rin (sana naman wala) kung ano man ang defect habang under warranty pa

Like I have posted earlier, wala pa akong reklamo sa aking strada. In fact, I love using it for my everyday ride to work from QC to Manila and back.

By the way, you indicated that your location is at Sta. Cruz. San po ito?

Oh, dito ka pala sa Manila. Akala ko kasi Sta. Cruz, Laguna, hehehe

Ask ko lang, sir astec, tungkol sa bike rack/holder/fastener, can that be installed on the truck bed? I have seen some pictures of trucks where the bike rack is on the bed. May model din kaya ang Thule na ganon? Thanks.

Also let me take this opportunity to invite you to join us in The Strada Club of the Philippines. We meet almost every Friday night at Ortigas area. We'll have one this coming Friday.
