ic po..
but... L300 versa van.. diba nasa 700t+ lang?
and i saw a 4d56 engine nakadisplay sa mitsubishi quezon ave. with a price tag of 350t pesos po... and.. mukhang hindi pa kumpleto yun.. its just the engine itself.. wala pa yung.. engine supports.. airfilter case.. exhaust.. alternator.. compressor.. wiper.. wiper motor.. washer motors radiator. evaporator..fans... fanbelts.. idlers pulleys.. glowplugs.. oil filters... fuel filters.. brake systems.. condenser.. and the list goes on po... and katakot takot na labor pa.. i know may discount pa yung mga parts.. like less 10% which is standard.. less 20 wholesale and less30 sa dealer.. but.. i dont think thats enough po..

i think lang po.. na this vehicle is going to be utility.. which means.. dapat ay napaka mura nito.. like siguro less than 300t pesos.. coz.. darating na mga china utility vehicles priced around 400t pesos.. ive seen some units na.. looks nice.. mga chopchop looks.. harap starex.. gilid spacegear fender hilux..
downside is its got a chinamade engine.. na hindi natin alam kung tatagal..
but ang claim nila is.. that their light truck's engine parts are interchangeable with isuzus..

i also like custom vehicles.. but.. due to cost... especially in research and development baka magshort po tayo.

iba po talaga ang mass manufacturing.. nabababa talaga nito ang prices ng malaki.. specially pag may assembly line

i like your idea.. the dream na makagawa ng sasakyan na magrerevolutionize sa pilipinas.. but.. parang hindi po yata cost effective and plans

ilagay natin sarili natin sa sapatos ng mamimili... kayo ba.. if may budget below 500t.. ay bibili kayo ng.. all around vehicle
