im planning to buy a pickup at the mentioned amount. i am considering a mazda b2500 and any isuzu pickup with the same price range.

my questions are:
1) what year was the latest release of b2500?
2) what isuzu pickup ang kaprice range ng b2500?
3) please compare the cars by performance, ride and consumption.
4) what should i look out pag bibilhin ko na? i guess common issues ng mga sasakyang ito.

Fuegos have a very high resale value. You cannot get a 2000 and up 4x4 variant with such a budget. You may have to settle with mid-1990s which by now may have incredibly high mileage (.i.e. pick ups are usually work vehicles).

I seems only the Ford Rangers sell at this price range for 2000 and onward models.

Your other bets would either be Eagle/Pathfinder, the first-gen Strada, and yes the Mazda B2500. All of these are late 1990s model.

1) what year was the latest release of b2500?
Back in 1998 before we bought our 4x2 B2500, we were considering if we were going to get the Isuzu Fuego or the B2500. We decided to go with the B2500 since Fuego is more expensive and it didn't have power side mirrors. Others are almost identical. One thing that I don't like is that the B2500 is the last pickup of Mazda before Sunny Motors closed and so after 2 or 3 years I guess, I was forced to find a reputable shop to have for repairs. 11 years after and almost 210k kms in the odometer, 3 overhauls, so far so good. It had 3 overhauls already since the first 2 were done by those small shops who used inferior parts so it didn't last long.

2) what isuzu pickup ang kaprice range ng b2500?
Maybe the Isuzu Fuego but a little bit higher.

3) please compare the cars by performance, ride and consumption.
I could only speak for the B2500. Performance, it is still good but it has already lost its former glory. Mine could only reach 120 kph max and it is already having a hard time catching up with those buses today. But if it's just for normal point a to point b driving, I would say it is still good. Consumption, mine could travel 330 to 360 kilometers with one full tank which is roughly 40 liters.

4) what should i look out pag bibilhin ko na? i guess common issues ng mga sasakyang ito.
With a car this old, you should check the suspension and engine condition. Make sure the glow plugs are still good, it starts with one click, how it runs, those stuffs.
