grabe talaga ang hirap mag maintain ng gasoline pick-up. not to mention the parts. 4-7km/L ang average consumption. big difference sa strada natin. mas mabigat pa nga yun gamitin. sus, lalo na yung v8 engine. waaaahh, no more budget for mods kung ganon. nandon na lahat sa gas.

roller lid na carryboy sa davao is 35K petot.

tama si sir tp. depende din talaga how you use your cargo bed. pang valuables or pang pa lagyan ng dead bodies or even ***y bodies. hehe joke lang. kasi ako, i often haul things higher than the strada's roof line. maraming nanghihitch din.

pero if you talk about the looks, daig ang roller lid sa sports lid or top-up lid.
IMO

Thanks mga sir. Di na talaga ako makatulog bukas ng hapon na dating. hehe.. ang ganda nga ng sports lid kasi ang issue ko madali ba tanggalin yun sir in case na need ko maglagay ng mga items like bertobol does (higher than the head roof)?

Dear Sirs
Need your help pls. Pasensya na po, I could not find what I was looking for from the old threads.
My GLX stock shock absorbers are still working pero gusto ko sana more comfy ride.
I was told na gas shocks ang nakakabit sa both front and rear. how true? saan ko ba pwedeng papalitan ng fluid shocks for both fron and rear? may kayaba ba na equivalent? kun meron saan pwedeng bumili?
wala akong budget for monroe etc brands sirs.
thanks

yesteerday, the 2010 strada gls sport manual transmission i was driving died on me in the center of paseo roxas makati. sobrand bad trip talaga. 6,000kms palang, may problem na. will update you guys on what was the problem, but for sure it is a fuel injection related problem. had my truck towed it to union motors otis paco manila.

hope the probems is not major since my actuator in the door lock failed on me 2x on the 1st month then the alarm broke down on me on the 4th month and now on its 7th month and 6,000kms, the fuel injection broke down...even if its on warranty, make you doubt talaga...

i hope that everything will be just fine for your strada, chances of your strada breaking down maybe factory defect, the only recorded problems of the strada's is the actuators which was resolved before, and regarding the alarm it is being installed here in the philippines when it arrives the chances of having a busted alarm or defective alarms was also the fault of the alarm provider which was also have been corrected, and about the sudden unit halting, its about 3 of 100 strada's to experience this issue.
i hope that your strada will be up and running to serve you.

anyway your strada is insured use the full capabilities and benefits of your insurance :D
don't also forget your warranty that covers your vehicle for it's 3yrs. or 100,000 km whichever comes first.

Salamat sir sa info!! Kaya pala kapg bubuksa ko ulit at lalakasan ko yun pagsara ng pinto eh pwede na ulit.. sana mura lang paayos sa casa.. thanks

*Sir Gaiden, thanks very much too for stopping to receive the shirt... as in sakto lang na nakita ko yung strada mo... still a looker. i do hope you found the answers adequate. ang pag-ayos ng alarm should be covered by warranty.

*Sir KCBoy, yes, please heed to the advise of Sir Xave. i must say this is my first time to hear about this issue on the strada- i heard it happen to the toyota d4d engines as well as a ford focus shortly before their product launches! but i'm taking note that for the longest time the strada has been on sale in the country since 2006 and on sale in thailand since 2005, it was only now that this issue occurred in a strada. but nonetheless, i have high expectations that the dealer and MMPC must rectify the issue.

please update us. via this thread. thanks.
