Sir kindly wait for few months pa, lalabas na rin yun 2012 strada where in both matic and manual will be sharing the same engine na vgt. The 2012 hilux 2.5E still carries the old engine, meaning without VGT

Between the two sir:

Looks ---- Hilux
features ---- Strada
fuel consumption ---- Hilux
price ---- Strada
safety ---- Both are actually unsafe if you really want to scrutinise the true meaning of safety, say at high-speeds, as both have high centre-of-gravity

and etc. ---- all this 2012 Hilux, Strada, Navara, BT-50, and DMax (include also Foton Blizzard) issued here in Philippines are all just MERE PRETENDERS and would be shamed bigtime by the all-new 2012 Ford Ranger when it arrives here in Philippines this 2012 as announced OUT-LOUDLY by Ford Philippines
....However, if anyone thinks that the new 3.0-litre V6 Navara will be sold here in Philippines, well chances are it won't be. Else, if it will be coming, then it's not during the immediate short-term like 2012....The average intro-price for it even in the Australian market is just too restrictive for a utility pickup, Au$65,000, and that is not yet the out-the-door price hehe.... PhP3.0 million na pickup and the price going for it is not surprising as Renault of France developed it

and also if i choose to buy strada model 2011 is it ok ?or i will wait for the next generation?

Hintayin mo na sir ang all-new 2012 Ford Ranger, as it's announced OUT-LOUD by Ford Philippines na darating dito sa Pinas by 2012. Options will include manual- and auto-trannies. Malamang sir, baka may tax-holiday din yan since it's a new technology in the market and Ford may qualify it so, just like what Mitsu Philippines has done so with its Strada GTV that's why mura ang Strada sir....

Kung nagkataon pa sir, the 5-cylinder 3.2-litre Ranger comes with a 200 hp and 470 Nm torque engine in stock-form. Ideally, as it's a straight-penta, it runs smoother, as the throws in the crank are 72-degrees angled at each other. With our current 4-cylinders, the throws are angled 90-degrees and the engine utilises two balancing shafts. The penta engine should also run smoother than a V6 (which also utilises two balancing shafts as it's inherently-imbalanced) but it cannot be any smoother than a straight-6 cylinder engine, like some BMW's. Volvo makes penta-engines mainly for marine engines, and they are highly-regarded....

Goodluck sir!

sir you mean lalabas din ang new strada for this year? anung month kaya? and may i dea po kayo kung how much siya srp? ng strada

[desparam]

anung month kaya ng 2012 sir lalabas kasi i have limited time lang at magkano kaya ang price kasi sa Strada 2.5 GLX 4x2 M/ 945,000

medyo ok na yung price at ok na rin ang looks at safety..magano kaya sir yung sinasabi mo?

I believe the 2012 stradas are already on its way here coming from thailand. Sabi nila oct daw dito na pero para sure make it sa nov. AFAIK may price increase of 30k lang naman.

Kung ngayon ka na talaga bibili, I'd suggest you get the Strada. It is significantly more powerful, more comfortable and more spacious, although at the cost of lesser rear bed space. Better yet if you can get the GLX-V variant, yun nga lang matic lang yun. If you are looking for a pure workhorse vehicle, I suggest you look for the Ranger 2.5TDCi as its got lots of power and great handling. Waterproof computer box means you are never afraid of drowning your vehicle in floods. And since the new one is coming soon, I believe Ford will be giving very attractive deals for this one.

However, if you can still afford to wait I'd suggest you do so there will be quite a few new pickups coming out by the end of this year or by next year.

Goodluck sir!

Yung 4x2 lang hanap niya so malamang yung 2.2 liter Ford ranger ang pasok sa budget niya.

TS: if you can't wait get the Strada, but if you can, test drive also the new Ford rnger nga ara 3 na pagpipilian mo.
