[noyzky7]

the sound of a diesel engine never amused me. imagine a bmw sounding like a f*ing PUJ. Fail.

 

Have you drive latest diesel engine car? specially Crdi, this is the latest in diesel engine(although i heard it way back 2002)..

 

less noise, less vibration and high performance.. I think you're ignorant in new diesel engine technology.Akala mo lahat ng

you obviously haven't heard the newer CRDI or DID engines, and you also didn't hear about Le Mans last year. It was won by a diesel car.

anyone can tell me the mileage of the locally made diesel pick ups? most are 2.5L yata right?

 

Wala naman local na car manufacturer. All the pick ups are of foreign origin baka may assembly plant lang dito sa atin. We have toyota at Laguna and if your speaking of the new toyota hi lux with d4d (2.5 displacement) engines I think you can get at most 17 km to a liter

I prefer diesel engines because of the high torque. With CRDI technology, diesel engines performs like gasoline engine in terms of acceleration

My experience with diesel powered vehicles is that they are somewhat more expensive to maintain.

Maybe the experts can share some tips on how to save some on maintenance. Thanks.

IMHO, a cool head and a light foot goes a long way.

 

Don't over drive the car, regularly check/change your vehicle's fluids, this would save you a lot of money in the long run like calibration and overhauls (never had a vehicle overhauled, that's how caring I am for my car)

Every single vehicle I have owned, be they off-road or plain use, are diesel machines.

 

This is for the very simple reason that I always drive pick-ups - which are all diesel-fed here in Pinas.

 

If you drive long distances for pleasure, like say 720 kilometers going up the extreme north of Luzon, heavily loaded with people and cargo, and no repair facilities in sight, and you only meet the occasional fellow vehicle every hour or so, you will want something tough, durable, can take merciless treatment, and keep plugging on.

 

That can only be a diesel machine.

 

There is a reason you never see a puny flimsy gas engine burning overpriced gasoline installed in serious, heavy duty trucks, anywhere on this planet.

 

A very good reason.

 

Leave the gas engines to them city boys and the electric cars to them tree-hugging environmentalists. They can't take nothing stronger.

[striker1012]

diesel for my baby inno.

[redredwine81]

diesel for city driving

gasoline for out of town & long distance driving

[mark625]

ill go for GAS, mas masarap ihataw and less maintenance, you dont even need to worry about smoke belching, and i dont travel to province everyday. less vibration and less noice with gas

Para sakin pag SUV or Pickup diesel mas tipid talaga pag gasoline dapat maliit lang ang engine displacement ng sasakyan para mahina sa gas!

[noyzky7]

Diesel pa rin Less maintenance and very efficient engine .
