Q? About New HI-LUX

[Off-Roader]

Good Choice.............

May 4x2 dmax manual kami. New for '05 is the flex ride(as well as new interior accents) mas malambot nga pero bawas sa load capacity. May ABS at dual airbags yun d-max. I think hilux wala pa itong option. Di pa CRDI yun DMAX. Medyo bit-chy yun shifting sa M/T. Mas OK yun auto tranny. But its got a very powerful engine, unbeatable torque! great ride height! makes you wanna run over smaller cars hehehe. I guess mas malakas yun 3li crdi ng Hilux, I can only imagine the speed and torque potential it has... kaya mag Fortuner ka na hehehe.

Dun sa pinanggalingan ko last week, Toyota Hi-lux (4WD) ng gamit namin (yung bago). One tough SOB of a pickup. Pero, I haven't ridden on a Strada or a D-max so I can't give a comparison.

[Off-Roader]

If I were to choose between the 3 (hi-lux, d-ax and strada) i will go for the hi-lux.

reasons:
1. hilux has new design among the 3, poging-pogi siya ngayon dahil bagong labas
2. good engine. the 3.0Liter engine is one hell of a powerful engine talagang humahatak compared to the 3.1Liter of D-MAx forget the engine of Strada.
3. roomier, the new hilux cargo box at the back was trimmed to allow the front double cab to be moved backwards thus creating more space for both front and rear passenger. Talagang maluwag siya compared to the old Hi-lux.
4. the coil springs have significantly reduced the bouncy of its ride (although it cannot beat the ride offered by TLC VX but pwede na rin ito)
5. Tested Toyota Quality and high resale value basta Toyota.

By the way we have both old and new Strada, old Fuego and new D-Max and old Hi-lux as company service vehicle. A friend of mine just acquired his new Hi-lux just week ago and having a ride of the three for purposes of comparison, I'd say that the Hi-lux has a better ride than Strada and D-max. We are talking here of 4X4 running in rough roads at a distance of 12-20km. Pag highway naman kasi di mo halos mafeel ang difference ng ride sa tatlo. I also observed that sitting at the back of strada seems like you are slipping forward. I guess it has something to do with the design of their rear seats at masikip ang Strada. Ang D-Max naman parang new Hi-lux na din ang space sa loob. D-MAx by the way offered more extra features than the two. Pero mas mataas ang tindig ng bagong Hi-lux.

now that the dmax novelty has died down..napansin ko lang..the front seats are low (may adjustment ba ito di ko kasi napansin).. and the m/t shifter is kinda rubbery..at parang di klaro mga gears ehehehe (i hope you know what i mean..)

hilux is the truck to get these days...

walang height adjustment yun seats. thats true for the M/T

May 2.7 VVTI ba na hilux with the same height as 4x4. May nakita ako last weekend... baka naduling ako or something

[odell]

pwede mo pm si marantz.. taga toyota makati ata siya

[edgee]

what is the consumption of 4x4 hilux? sabi nila 17km/l long drive and 12km/l City drive. totoo ba?

[ARB]

like the one on the bottom na lang compared sa alloy. what do you guys think?

[ILuvDetailing]

Ok to... meron bang walang bars? mas ok sana pag bumper lang.

[tebs]

onga, mas maganda yung parang powder coated. never liked the alloy look.

[Off-Roader]

Pag gusto mo head turner the alloy is more attractive

[OTEP]

Bakit ang layo ng shape nung alloy bar compared sa powdercoated? If they just chromed the powdercoat bar, it would look ok siguro.

Personally, I like powdercoated more esp. if it matches the color of the lower tone in two tone vehicles.

[odell]

ganda talaga tindig ng hilux with the bar sa harap

[odell]

mas ok may bars para protectado un lights i think?

[ILuvDetailing]

Hehehe mas trip ko kasi walang bars...

[ARB]

[zechs]

pag nabangga yan with the bars on, sabihin natin protektado nga ang mga lights mo pero yung body naman will sustain most of the damage. ive seen vans and pick-ups na mas ok yung bangga kung walang bars.

[Sheep]

depende sa bars tjm or arb im sure protektado talaga
pag yung mga local bars mas malaki talaga ang damage

i have a tjm roo bar on my pick up nakabangga ako ng poste when i was about to leave the parking masikip kasi so kumukuha ako ng buwelo medyo malakas ang arangkada ko yupi ang poste kala ko malaki ang damage ko pag tingin ko wala na chip off lang ang powder coat ng bar as if nothin happend
