New Mitsubishi Strada [ARCHIVED]

[behn_axehl]

Ent_Md's post indeed says that the D-max is the most economical having a fuel consumption of 8.4 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. That's 11.9km/l. Next na pinakamatipid according to Ent_Md's post is the 3.0 Hilux (11.76km/l), then the 2.5 Navarra (10.20km/l). The 3.2 Triton/Strada and the 3.0 Ranger are the least economical having a FC of 9.62km/l.

AnO sir?! Hindi po pala matipid ang Strada sa Fuel consumption.... wuuahhh! yun pa man din ang gusto ko (while my dad wants Innova / Hilux) wuuahhh! Maganda po ba ang Dmax?

[behn_axehl]

Gentlemen, I visited the other thread, is it true na least ang Strada 3.2 at ranger kung fuel consumption ang pagbabasihan? Please give me your reaction kasi po I am insisting my dad to get a Strada pero kung maaksayado po ito sa gasolina (I travel a lot, normally out-of-town almost everyday) eh baka hindi worthy ang price ng strada sa everyday maintenance nito please

I believe those tests above were tested in Australia, which I strongly believe it doesn't apply here. Go for the 2.5L Strada.

You should test drive the trucks... Only if Toyota will allow you. Shame on them if you find out... well, how bad could it be?

Test drive the Strada, bring it in to pot holes and you'll know what I mean. A Strada should be gentle to its passengers, most especially women who really needs to protect their reproductive system.

Overstyled daw ang Strada... Well, that's true, if the manufacturer would want to change the image of pick-ups, what can you expect.

For comparisons... Please visit here nalang po.

Yun nga po ang nilalaban ko sa dad ko na matagtag daw ang hilux kaysa sa strada, kaya lang sir sa palagay mo po ba mas matipid ang strada kaysa sa ibang pick up? Thanks po sir drey.

tell your dad that the hilux is indeed matagtag. if you want the ride to improve, you need to upgrade your shocks & springs with OME's which would cost you an additional 25-60k. i recently upgraded my hilux with a full OME suspension setup and the damage was around 60k. if i were you, i'll go with the strada due to it's more comfortable ride. i don't think the strada is really that much of a fuel-guzzler, kung matakaw nga talaga yan sa fuel eh di puro reklamo na nababasa mo dito. hehehe.

Sabi Ko nga po tigas lang talga ulo dad ko, pagpipilitan pa hilux kasi daw mataas at maporma (hindi naman cya ang gagamit hehehe!) kaya lang too bad kasi sa kanya manggagaling ang pambili hehehhe! my clients also have hilux sabi nga nila matagtag nga talga, sir pasensya na ha dami ko question. Do you think I shouldgo for the 2.5 M/T or 3.2 A/T? isip ko kasi yung matic para comfortable ako since lage nga me out of town balikan pa, kaya lang yung 2.5 M/T kasi mas matipid sa gasolina, on your view sir, sa 2.5 o 3.2 ka?sorry ha...

[[r]ichkri3g]

mag 3.2 ka na!

[behn_axehl]

mag 3.2 ka na!

PweDe isa pa? Sa car ko po kasi, i planned to put a subwoofer, kaya lang hindi napursue kasi nga nagpaplano na ako kumuha ng kapalit, question: gusto ko po ng magandang sounds (specially bass) pano po magandang gawin since di na me pwede kumuha ng bulky na sub dahil walang paglalagyan sa gls sports?

[Allegra]

I got this from another forum on pick-up trucks...

Fuel consumption observed during tests:

Nissan Navara 2.5L - 9.8L/100km
Mitsubishi Triton 3.2L- 10.4L/100km
Ford Ranger 3.0L - 10.4L/100km
Toyota Hilux 3.0L - 8.5L/100km
Holden Rodeo/Isuzu Dmax - 8.4L/100km

But, yes, it really depends on driving style. My Innova can range between 7--11km/li (gas).
Thanks.

I'm getting 9.5li/100km on my manual 3.2 strada mixed city/hiway/boondocks
But then , I drive like miss daisy

Ask your dealer about the new/extra speakers
Mine told me it would void the warranty

GaNun ba sir? naku po! wag na nga lang hehehe!

Sana nga makakuha ako ng deal na maganda, at yung maasyos kausap talga na maayos ang after sales service... unlik other company.... wheehww! thanks sir ha!

Sana nga makunbinsi ko dad ko to go for a strada! Galing nga me sa showroom sa caloocan kanina eh, damn! ang pogi ko (kahit babae ako) kapag dinrive ko yun! just wondering pag nakapalda ako pangit kaya tapos pick up dala ko hehehe!

[drey]

Maam,

Sabihin mo dad mo, mas okay tumira sa Strada compared sa Hilux. Hilux kasi is more work biased... Ang Strada kasi lifestyle pick-up talaga... Just my opinion.

The Strada is also better everyday driving kasi it's really a truck you would want to drive everyday. For example, it has the best turning radius, which is easier to park and to manuever.

Ask your dad for an outlander for days you decide to wear a skirt
Daym , the white outlander looks great on a girl IMO

[ooba99]

not to disagree with these figures but i have always thought that isuzu d-max delivers the most economical engine. strada with its 3.2 liter engine apparently ito pala ang pinakamatipid sa lahat.

Hi silverend, the figures given by ent_md are in L/100 km. Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know, the lower the figure, the more economical is the vehicle. So based on what ent_md posted, the most fuel efficient is the holden rodeo and the d-max.

Hi, ent_md, I got a 3.2 strada GLS sport a/t and I average 8 km/liter pure city driving. The 2.5 strada delivers 10-12 km/L city driving based on posts on this and the other strada threads.

Sabi nung dealer ko okay lang naman magdagdag sa sound system just as long as kung magkaproblema sa electrical, hindi yung pagkakakabit sa mga yun ang dahilan nung problema. Kaya make sure kung magpapakabit ka bagong sound system, dun sa professionals.

Dun ako nagpa-setup kay mickey. Suggestion nya dun sa ilalim nung front passenger seat pero dun ko na pinalagay sa likod ng rear seat. RF 12" shallow sub ginamit, yung amp ko na lang nasa ilalim ng front passenger seat, at morel dotech ovation 6 seps sa harap. Pinalitan ko na rin yung HU ko ng pioneer 7950ub para pwede sa ipod and 160Gb portable HDD ko.

I like the ralliart rims sa strada, ganda ganda ganda, hirap linisin niyan dami singit singit, akin nalang para di ka mahirapan

try niyo rin bf goodrich AT, IMHO very aggresive siya tignan and ang kapal ng tread niya, here's mine 275/70r16. review niya sa tirerack ok rin, yung mga tinakbo ng owners more than 99999 miles, pero sa atin mga half lang niyan kaya,

Attachment 10213

Maganda rin yan! Yung sa barkada ko, mga 6 years na yata yung sa kanya, tapos 2x luwas sa manila per week, mga kalahati pa lang napupudpod, at mukhang bago pa yung sidewall. Mas mahal nga lang ito ng konti.


[r]ichkri3g,
Siyempre, mas maganda yung orig te37, no question. Benta mo na yan, tapos konti na lang idadagdag mo

behn axehl,

Matigas talaga ang ulo ng erpats mo. Strada 3.2 has all the advantages in terms of price, power, comfort, amenities, style, drivability, maneuverability, safety (ABS with EBD), off-road capability (rear limited-slip differential. The only advantage of hi-lux is the truck bed size.

just got back from an out of town trip - mostly highway driving around 100kph or so trip computer registered 87kph average- got 12.25 km/l based actual number of liters and kms run (fuel top up method). this is very good i think considering the power you have on tap.

ride was very good though it's still a pick-up. i was amazed by the handling - it took the twisties no problem not sure if it was the 265 tire width or the lsd or maybe both but the zigs and the zags can be taken with much confidence.

just couldn't get my ipod 30 gb to work with the kenwood head unit - are there only specific mp3 players that work with it?

AnO sir?! Hindi po pala matipid ang Strada sa Fuel consumption.... wuuahhh! yun pa man din ang gusto ko (while my dad wants Innova / Hilux) wuuahhh! Maganda po ba ang Dmax?

Those fuel consumption figures were based on Ent_Md’s post and I think they’re correct considering that the strada has the biggest engine. If I were to buy a pickup now, I would choose the 3.2 Strada. It has that head-turning looks, powerful engine, spacious cabin (at the expense though of a small load bay), nice interior, and reasonably priced. D-Max has the most economical FC but it is not as powerful as the other newer pickups.
