D-Max or Frontier

[ineedmorehp]

I saw this thread pero puro Hilux ang choice... http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19464

How about D-Max and Frontier, what do you think? For biz/cargo use sana. THanks.

If it's for business and cargo use then the Frontier may have an edge in the maintainance department due to it's elderly engine design (pre-combustion TD27)... Just change the oil and filters regularly and the engine will just keep goign and going with no worries about the fuel quality. I dunno about the cargo sizes between the two though. In the power and looks department then definitely the Dmax has the edge to it's being much newer.

sir anu yun "...elderly engine design (pre-combustion TD27)"? Btw, hindi turbo yung Frontier, Dmax turbo, Innova turbo (well innova is out) na mention ko lang kasi naka turbo... so medyo hesitant pa kami...

the usage of an inoova is not like the usage of the pick up.. so, u cant compare them talaga.... as for your inquiry, dmax has the most advantage of the 2.... (kahit 4x2 lang) 3.0 intercooler engine, has the height and stance of a 4x4, ABS, dual airbag... matipid din sa diesel ang very ok ang power niya for hauling heavy goods...

The frontier may have an advantage in the hauling capability (but take note that it has the stiffest ride of all local pickups to date).

All else (Safety, power, fuel consumption - comparing it with the 3.2L of the frontier, ride comfort, looks), Dmax wins for me.

*jarhead - i mentioned innova because i was surprised that its already turbo and frontier is not.

*Djerms - sir hauling capability, hindi ba mas malakas ang mga d-max?

Btw, the vehicle will be used for transportation of meat, flour, and rice.
