IMHO...
1. Strada
2. Strada
3. Hilux (due to the more complex and costly VGT system of the Strada)
4. Strada
5. Hilux
6. Subjective, but Hilux for me. It looks more traditional/hardcore and yet still looks sophisticated.

i'll agree with sir GTi for 1-4. but my opinion for durability, same lang sila. IMHO parehong maaasahan at matibay ang toyota and mitsubishi. mas maraming service center lang ang toyota. the looks for me, strada. tapos palit mags

1. FC - Strada s not used in heavy loads. If heavy loads, Hilux
2. Riding Comfort - Strada
3. Easy maintenance - Same
4. Features - Strada (turning radius is better, rear window opens up, better cabin)
5. Durability - Same
6. Looks - subjective but tie also for me. Futuristic or swabe ang strada, Hilux macho naman.

since the hilux has 3.0 engine while strada has 2.5...
does it mean that in terms of speed, off roading, toyota has the edge?

[OTEP]

Engine size isnt everything, the rated output in terms of hp and torque is what counts.

Back in the day, 2.5 diesels were making 72 hp but due to progress and technology, same engines are now pushing 170bhp out of the same displacement.

And test drive them both as transmission and axle gearing also play a part in seat of the pants feel.

Strada GLS MT.

Strada has 178ps@4000rpm and 400Nm@2000-2800rpm, while the Hilux has 163ps@3400rpm and 343Nm@1400-3200rpm. The Strada has noticeably higher numbers but we must also take note of the rpm at which it was achieved. The Hilux has ample power at all points of its rev range, while the Strada only picks up power once the turbo kicks in, and achieves peak output at a screaming 4000rpm. This would indicate that the Strada has a higher top speed, but the Hilux would do better in acceleration and hauling or towing, since theoretically speaking, with simple calculations, the Strada would only be making 151hp@3400rpm and 280Nm@1400rpm, but the numbers just climbed longer into the rev range.
