    mga sir,

    Any idea bakit mas mura cheapest AT variant ng Nissan NP300 kesa sa cheapest AT variant ng New Strada?
    Introductory price pa lang kasi yan. It should go up na by this month.

    May pricing na ba dito ang all-new Strada?

    Finally saw a 4x2 Calibre NP300 earlier today. It was orange and it looks just like it does in pictures - about the same level of presence as a Ranger or Hilux. I'd still say the Ranger was more eye-catching when it was new, while a Hilux with 20" OEM style rims still looks like it will last the test of time better.

    Rims looked small on the big body, like it desperately needs 18 inchers at the very least (just like the Ranger XLT).

    I agree. Most curvy designs won't age well. To me the Ranger looks bigger. The 4x4 has 18 inchers albeit on smallish 255/60r18 tires. The problem with getting new rims is the PCD looks like it's still 6x114.3. Hard to find rims with this PCD.

    ^Are you talking about the stance of the new truck?

    Well, that's what I have observed before, too. I guess fitting the 285/60 R18 chrome wheels of the Patrol will definitely make the truck more imposing. IMO, that's one good mod to have for the new Navara.

    This is how it looks like with bigger wheels.

    what can you say guys on its suspension? The SA told me that the new Navarra is now using coil spring which is comparable to SUV suspension.

    I've said it before, tire size of the 4x4 is 255/60r18. 4x2 Calibre has 255/70r16.

    Test drove it yesterday (4x4 a/t). Ride quality is definitely much better despite the lower profile tires on the 18" rims. As expected it rolls a bit more in the corners compared to the old model. Can't compare the power as mine is modded but it is fast.

    The rear seat is a little low, and will be a little uncomfortable for taller people but at least there is no "hump" on the center seat and the center console doesn't stick to the rear legroom space like the Ranger. Try to sit at the center rear position and you'll know what I mean. Also the rear backrest is at a more comfortable angle than the Ranger's. Then there's the rear a/c vents which are exclusive to the NP300. For the rear right and left legroom the Ranger is still better.

    The engine is a little bit more noisy than the old yd25 though. Sounds more like a diesel but still pretty quiet. Haven't had the chance to really test if offroad and how the brakes perform (rear drums are smaller in diameter than the D40) but overall (specially tech) it's a great upgrade to the D40.

    Metro Manila driving is considered extreme condition by car manufacturers. Heavy traffic, dusty environment, etc. Exception would be if your daily route is mostly highway driving.

    AFAIK PMS interval is 10,000km. Not sure if they're offering Motul engine oil, I bet it would be at a really big markup. Last I checked fluids were from Total/Elf. Maybe the Renault/Nissan alliance extends to their fluids as Total/Elf is also a French brand.

    May bedliner na ba? I thought the reason they didn't offer it was because it wasn't available yet.

    We went to Nissan Westgate (Alabang) ang inquired. The SA told us that the PMS interval is first 1,000kms. Then every 20,000kms na. I think that is kind of loooooong interval. Anybody heard about this?

    Bedliner is available already as an add-on accessory. P9,500 Nissan mismo daw, not 3rd party suppliers.
