    nice observation/review sir jadee! we have the same color! nice! i hope i can order the headlights of the VL and slap it(plug and play) on my EL.. sadly may battle scar na yung navara ko with only 1,200km.. natalsikan ng bato, sana makuha sa PDR(Paintless Dent Repair). Yes back up sensor is a must! bigla ako nanibago kasi 3 years ago pa since the last time i drove a pick up(Ford Explorer Sport Trac). i just hope kasing reliable nung nissan safari ko itong navara. i drove that thing for 15 years 395,000kms! pero no major was part replaced, sulit!

    *Jadee Thank you for the inputs. I share the same sentiments except I have never tried it in high speed. Only test drove the two units within the city. I'm still torn between the Ranger and the Navara. My previous ride was a Strada and was very happy with it, but got totaled recently. Don't really like the new look of the Strada so now stuck with either the ranger or Navara. Just wanted to ask how are the running costs for both units? In your own opinion has ford addressed the problems of the earlier Rangers, transmission and turbo problems?

    Choosing between Np300 EL/At and 2.2 WT/Mt. Looking forward to your further inputs. Thank you in advance.

    Design - We can argue 24/7 on the design but both of these are the best looking truck available locally.
    Winner: Both

    Handling - I tried to like the new Navara's handling (don't get me wrong it still decent) but when I'm using the ranger I felt there is a noticeable difference between them.
    Winner: Ranger

    Comfort - Definitely Navara is the winner, It offer the car like feel yet the Ranger offer the Sporty-truck feel.
    Winner: Navara

    Interior - I felt Navara has more busy stuff going which is good, yet I felt the Ranger has a little more premium feel compare to navara. But thanks to extra stuff like cupholders and socket charger I picked Navara over Ranger by a point.
    Winner: Navara

    Lighting - Navara for me has the best set up for a truck at the moment. HID, DRL and Fog Lights what more could you ask for? It's not even comparable to Ranger since I felt the ranger has low illumination at night though the Rear Fog Lamps for the 3.2 model is decent.
    Winner: Navara

    Driving Experience: In my experience, Navara is noisier inside compare to Ranger which is not good. I can feel the noise and vibration inside the truck at mid to high revs coming from the engine and turbo noise. (maybe ranger has noise cancellation? I'm not sure I didn't research) and the Ranger has this engine/turbo noise that I like better compare to Navara and it doesn't vibrate and loud as NP300. Ranger feels more agile, feels more powerful while Navara feels decent. I tested them both on high speed around 140kph-150kph. Navara feels better and natural than Ranger at high speed because the Ranger is getting louder noise from engine and wind (I don't know really much but that is how i felt).
    Winner: Tie ( I thought Navara is better for city and traffic, Ranger for road trip and performance )

    Other concern against NP300:
    *Ranger has more responsive break feel compare to NP300, you can feel it when you test drove both.
    *It does not have a standard parking sensor (believe me, we need it)
    *Turning is awful.


    Anyway, I'm having fun with the truck yet still waiting for my plate here's some pic of the truck

    It cost me around 10-20k per PMS(6months interval) for Ford Ranger, had my turbo replaced 3 times, They recalled my coolant hose and update on PCM. While I'm not sure for the Navara since wala pa siyang 10k no problem so far.

    Please elaborate. We are looking at the VL/AT White also. Our other option is the Ranger 3.2 WT

    so far happy ako sa np300 Navara ko thou i dont have the high output 4x4 VL, i only have the 4x2 EL A/T Calibre. sobrang sulit lalo na sa price point nya. pwede kayang iflash yung program ng VL to my EL para same na sila ng power output or may mga mechanical stuff pa na involve? kasi same engine and displacement sila, same din naman VGS turbo..

    kailangan matinding pigaan lang sa mga agents! i got free back up sensor, nissan original bed liner and the usual freebies. may ibang casa hindi nissan na brand ang bed liner na ginagamit. pm me if your interested para bigay ko number nung agent na nakausap ko.

    by the way share ko lang din, it took me 3 and 1/2 weeks for my plate to arrive. grabe casa ata talaga may problema kasi iniipon nila. got my unit nung april 10, tapos nakita ko sa transmittal records/slip nila sa LTO received april 24! Tapos may 4 nasa dealer na plate ko.

    Guys, talked to my colleague before who now works with Nissan and he confirmed to me that all the issues with the previous Navara have been resolved. Aminado sila na may mga issues talaga ang old Navara that is why inayos at pinalitan na nila lahat ngayon. Sabi din niya, mura na ang mga parts ng Nissan unlike before. I hope Nissan is true to their words these time. Hope makuha ko na si new Navara this Saturday woohoo...!

    Hi I'm glad they've corrected all the issues. Do they still give free bedliners? I just ordered a 4x2 AT. I tested the 4x4 AT and I'm quite happy with the power. I hope the 4x2 fulfills my expectations. Is there a big power difference?.

    Sir I also tested their 4x4 VL/At. Ganda talaga btu if ever due to budget constraints 4x2 EL/At lang ang kaya ko so I asked if I could test drive the 4x2 sabi sa akin hopefully by tomorrow may unit. Dami rin kasi sila tinanggal sa 4x2 like LED projector headlamps, DRL, Cruise Control, push start/stop, roof rails, colored trip computer, 5" screen monito/GPS, park assist and rear view camera, Vehicle Stability Control which includes the traction controls, hill start assist, hill descent, auto lights, 18" mags, etc. Not to mention less HP and torque. Will post feedback Kung ok yung power ng 4x2.
    Sa mga 4x2 Np300 Navara owners, mga bossing, your inputs would be greatly appreciated. Thank you po ulit.
