    is it more expensive to maintain 6 speed transmission compare to 5 speed? Im looking at Isuzu MuX and plan to keep it for a long time, maybe 10 years or 200t KM.

    Same maintenance. You just get additional gear in between 4&5th useful in cruising up/downhills, and the odd reverse if you are accustomed to traditional aisin/jatco 5sp pattern.
