    is it ford ranger, l200, fuego, frontier, or hilux? out of d question na ang performance and features. pwede kasi na maganda performance at mga features pero madali naman masira mga parts resulting sa high maintenance cost.

    IMO HI-LUX if durability and reliability lang ang pag-uusapan.. Reliable Engine, not too much HP but it gets things done, you will not race your pick-up naman di ba? madali rin ang piyesa nito at very affordable (tagal na kasi sa market nang engine na ito) Body is quite solid, medyo makapal and good toyota quality coat. Yung kababayan ko na me construction supplies back in the 80's pang deliver nila yung Hi Lux nila, wala pang masyadong bedliners noon, tsaka napakamahal pa, his bedliner was just a piece of plywood imagine a hollow blocks, iron bars, drums and other construction material on the bed with not so much protection, until now buhay pa ung hilux nila, same body and bedliners pa rin although napa-repaint na nila without much body works except changing the tail gate because it was torn into 2 piece by the bach hoe daw....wala na raw paglagyan nang gasgas kaya kelangan na nang bagong pintura...hehehe

    L200 - medyo mahina ang pang-ilalim (L200 ha, not Strada) yung sa pinsan ko kasi parating nakasubsob madali raw masira yung mga ball jointspero maganda ang body paint (8-dip zero rust quality nila). Parts are everywhere also because its 4d56 engine is in the market already for more than 2 decades na yata.. reliable engine also, although marami ang nagrereklamo na madali daw umusok...

    Nissan - madaling kalawangin ang bed, medyo manipis yata ang body nito eh..(although marami nang pwedeng gawin dito ngayon for extra added protection, nice engine though very reliable and not too noisy, medyo pricey daw yung parts compare to the other two depending on the type of engine)

    Fuego - andaling mag-rattle nang body connections and cabin parts dahil sa sobrang engine vibration, medyo hindi rin maganda ang bodypaint nito, (di ko alam kung ilang coating but sabi nung friend ko na me fuego, na-scratch daw minsan yung sidings nya, not too deep but you can already see the base paint or primer coating.. very reliable engine being the only direct injection in its class rt. now, downside is maingay at napakalakas nang vibration if idle...nung natrapik kami non nung barkada ko, pakiramdam ko eh nakalog pati yung hintutuli ko sa kaba-vibrate for almost an hour...dapat me malakas kang sound sa loob w/matching boom box para hindi ka ma-annoy sa ingay nang makina.

    Ranger - cannot comment...wala pa akong feedback dito. wala kasi akong kaibigan na meron nito at the moment...

    wow...boss woodfire...sariwang sariwa pa yan...benta mo na ba?

    I am scouting for a pick up previously kaya panay ang research ko, kaya lang mukhang mabubulilyaso yata dahil may property na inofer sa min, if ever I am still going to buy one, I will contact you, I might settle for a second hand kapag ganyan ka-sariwa...

    bakit mo binebenta yan? parang nakakapanghinayang na kargahan nang mga goods yang likod nyan ah...pweding pang-camping yan eh...me instant bed ka na agad, no need for a tent...hehehe

    any more pics of your Strada? you can email it to me if its too big to post at 5Speed*tsikot.com. I cannot decide rt. now if we're to acquire an another ride...

    tnx boss woodfire..

    sabi ng cousin ko who owned hilux, l200, mazda, isuzu pick ups before.. the best for him was hilux..

The best pickup in terms of durability/reliability?
