Toyota Hilux 4x4 vs. Mitsubishi Strada 4x4

[Corollax]

You can also try the new facelifted D-MAX. But if you are choosing between the Hilux and the Strada, I will definetly choose the Hilux because of it's good resale value, the quality. The Strada is also good but for me it's over styled.

[Vioser]

Before buying my Hilux, I considered muna yung Strada GLS. it it a good buy for a pick-up but it lacks some of my criteria and its overstyled for me, so I choosed the Hilux.

My ride is an 18 yr. old Hi-lux, so far walang problema. Ni-regear ko ung differential from an 80 model Hi-ace, so far smooth running ung regear ko. Imagine tatay ko owns an AUV using surplus drivetrain of Hi-ace with 400K on the clock, wala pa rin problema differential. 2 times na nagbaba ng makina pero hindi pa rin nagpapalit ng axle bearing. That AUV was carrying at least 5 persons (average) daily with additional tools and equipment. Imagine ung 3rd member (differential carrier assy) ng Hi-lux na Model 1969 can still be used on a 2007 D4D na Fortuner ngayon. Ganun katibay at reliable ang Hi-lux. Kung sa tagtag naman na sinasabi nila ewan ko baka naman sabi lang yon, coil-over na ung bagong Hi-lux diba? At yung leaf spring 48 inch ang haba nun ah.

Silverend, I agree with your descripstion.... additional to Hi-lux as described by the Americans "Bullet-proof". Take note that the new Hi-lux share the same flatform as the TUNDRA and T-100....kahit na made in Thailand both H-lux and D-max, Toyota at Izusu pa rin yan........ Pag made in the Philippines ba yan, hindi natin bibilin? Comment lang ha!

Try to compare your 18 y.o. Hilux and the New Hilux...

IMO, overstyles ang Strada para sa iba. But still it meets the needs of what pcik-up buyers need. Better ang "over" compared sa kulang at mahal pa.

And Imo, using old parts also exist on new vehicles. Take the Easy Select 4WD of Mitsubishi as an example which is dated back on the first 1982 Pajero.

Another example, the Mitsubishi reigns on its own. Take a look at this Dodge R50. I still see a fresh one in Bukidnon despite of all that farm work. This Dodge Ram 50 is identical to the L200 of Mitsubishi, only less popular.



And talking about Hiaces... We have one, our L300 is pretty much more reliable which served us for more than 10 years. Now it's still running by a new owner. I only wished I was already taking care of it rather than my father who used the van in carrying dumptruck size tires, pipes, hollow blocks, transmissions, glasses, medical equipments, whatever...

I remember that model. Dodge Ram 50 won the comparison over the Izusu P-UP (2nd), Toyota Hi-lux (3rd) and Datsun Pick-up. Published 1980 by "Pick-up, Van, 4WD" magazine, 4WD mini-trucks comparison. I agree with you....That's a nice truck

If I have the money, Strada din ako lalo na ngayon VGT engines na mas mura pa.

But if I have a construction site na putik putik sa province. Hilux ako.
