I've been a SUV Diesel fanatic since 7 years ago.

My first vehicle was a Pajero '89 and learned the ropes from my first "wolf" (named him that). BTW, those who want chop chop accesories for this box-type model, Mang Orly's the man (Sampaloc)!

Then I had the Pajero '95 about 2 years back. Had a great time with that, never had a major problem. I just replaced all the tires and one door handle.

But I had to make a choice between function or fashion (in the male sense) for my wife was about to give birth to my 2nd baby.

We scouted for cars like Largo (not much leg room for the driver), Local Terrano (to compact), and around 3 EMINAs.

Apart from the overheating issue, I still believe that EMINA was a good buy. Spacious that the Paj series, much like the starex but cooler in shape.

Anywho, I just wanted to share with you guys. Thanks!
