    I am hesitant to get a 2nd since I cant find a decent one or at least if the info being feeded are true (low mileage, sariwa, etc)...

    I need your opinions and suggestions

    thanks guys

    Budget? If i had around 800K to use for an 8 seater (with bags) for school hops and tootling around the metro, I'd look for a second hand Nissan Urvan (2012 to 2015 model). Easy to maintain with its old school 2.7L diesel.

    How about this? A toyota hilux fx hilux-fb.jpg

    or Dmax IPV or Mitsu L200 fb. Much better than L300 fb. But of course the drawback is the maintenance. Easiest vehicle to maintain is L300 fb, but be careful sa ASBU.

    A 15 seater AUV is the perfect vehicle for school transport duty. It is, after all, the vehicle of choice of school service units. Monthly fees for those are most definitely not cheap. So wala dapat ikinahihiyan if you ride those to school.

    I'm pertaining to the class of utility vehicles that include the Hilux FX, L200 FB and Flexiqube. I'd suggest the Flexiqube. It's the cheapest, and already has power amenities and of course the legendary Isuzu reliability.

    According to this site Isuzu Philippines Price List | Auto Search Philippines 2016 the Flexiqube costs 880k. Paano naging 1M yun? That would mean making it more expensive than the Hilux. In fairness to them, I've driven the previous gen IPV on numerous occasions in both city and provincial conditions. The brakes are really good. In fact I find it to brake better than many cars with 4 wheel discs and ABS.

    Base on the site, 1+m yung nhr na flexi truck. Baka ito ang sinasabi ng agent kay dudee?

    Ay tama nga sir, less than 900K siya, 865K sa lumabas sa Google pero 2 years ago pa yung post. Nagtaas nga siguro ng 880K.

    Did you drive it loaded with cargo/people? Mas ok sana ito over L300/H100 though baka maging concern sa buyer yung CRDi engine. But since proven na yung 4JK1 (over counterparts' new engines) added peace of mind na din?

    I really dont know how the agent came up with the price... ang sabi nya 1.02m daw ang new price, plus LTO, plus freight.... yun 880K is old price daw...

    at times... some dealers don't have uniformity in price.

    But that was the price as of this April, according to the site... Grabe naman nung 1.02M kung totoo talaga. Di kaya para sa higher pickup variant yang 1.02M?

    If he is from the province, they already added freight and insurance cost to the price. That is how they price units in the provinces. Don't know if it's some kind of policy or agreement since almost all dealers price it like that.

    The one I drove was a 2012 unit. I've driven it both unladen and fully loaded. Braking remained good. The rear was very bouncy, though the seats were, at least, very well cushioned especially when compared to the L300 though I don't know if it has improved through the years. Handling was pretty good too for this kind of vehicle, as experienced when I drove it to Baguio once.

    I remember the L3's "sakit" was always it's aircon though... And it was quite prone to overheating.
