    The Navara also suffers from poor diesel. the Filters get clogged easily.

    On Mitsus, it's the SCV.

    On Toyotas, it's the fuel pump.

    On Hyundai, it's the EGR system that's vulnerable, but this is obviously cheaper than a fuel pump.

    On Fords... actually... nothing yet... no issues inside the Fordclub to do with the fuel systems... only issue so far is that the Dual Mass Flywheel costs a lot to replace... but I expect this is true of all DMF equipped cars in the country (that includes most of the pickups with CRDi engines... thus, buy an automatic... ).

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Sir Niky thanks for the update on the Navara. It's great to know that ford currently has no issues with our fuel.

    i also believe that the Ranger has a simpler YET a better 4WD system than the Strada. That's Proven.

    A ford truck -- ganda pakinggan. Pero strada din ako on this comparison. It looks better on dirt and concrete. Yung pula sir.

    Why not include the ISUZU D-Max in your pool of options. I'd consider that too.

    I choose strada in this comparo, because i already did after comparing it with it competitors.
    These are my reasons why:
    1. Currently most beautiful pickup and has the most futuristic look among my choices, IMO
    2. It's the cheapest 4x4 pickup.
    3. It has the most comfortable 2nd row seat, I will use it in long trips with my family sometimes.
    4. It's not too wide, I'm the one driving it, its hard to drive wide vehicles here in MM.
    5. It's bed is good enough, I will not use it for hauling large cargo, it's really my alternative coding vehicle and sometimes for light offroading too.

    The D-Max is under powered, expensive, uncomfortable with the ride quality and cabin space. Also, it's not that very capable off road and even in on road with the floods around (already saw three latest Dmax's, one even with 4x4 stalling in knee deep flood even with a very slow fording speed. I think one of the reason is that of the alternator being positioned very low in the engine bay which is located right beside the Right-Front wheel.)

    Though i like the GPS and the OEM projector headlights of the Dmax.
