Pwede ding compromise in the form of the Accent or Getz CRDi. You can befriend an Accent cab driver to know the nitty gritty details on maintenance. I'm sure marami nang parts by now sa dami nang Accent na ginagawang taxi.

May Getz na diesel po? Well, ok nga din si Accent CRDI. The only thing lang talaga is Korean sya. And for a beginner like me, who saves little by little to be able to buy a used car, parang nakakahesitate.

adventure bro sulit na sulit ..sayo yan sigurado sa tipid lang din sa diesel wala ka masasabi .kahit pang hanap buhay pwede..

Yes sir. A relative can attest that. Pero since they already have one, iba naman sana. Well, sana.

Almost same route tayo except sa oras. Since you work at night, you can get away with a not so fc friendly vehicle imho.

Ganun po ba sir? Btw, ano po gamit nyo? And what can you suggest po out of my limited budget? May times din pala na I travel the Litex-Montalban Road. Pag nakikitulog ako sa isang kamag-anak.

Yes, they are relatively rare pero meron.

For me, pretty much any car will last long if you take good care of it and observe proper maintenance. That is, unless the car happens to be a 4JX1 Trooper and has design defects. My current daily driver is a 2007 Santa Fe, which I got January last year with 74k on the clock. Pretty much all things I've replaced are consumables, though I have to admit that I've had to replace these things earlier than I expected. However, after replacing them the car has performed admirably so far.

This is why considering your preferences, I'm mostly still recommending old school diesels. You can really expect them to last long, and be cheap to fix if something does go wrong.

Ok sir, thanks sa input. Sige, I'll take Accent CRDI as option na din. How I wish may mga old models nito na hatchback. [emoji4]

Mirage ang daily ko.
That litex motalban road... That road is littered with craters especially after the the rodriguez highway.
If you are travelling that road, might as well get a crossover/auv/suv type.

Anong meron sa hatchbacks? I'd never consider one unless its a Jazz. [emoji23] Boot space and cabin space in general is usually very small.

Btw, I saw a 2009 Getz CRDi ad on Facebook Marketplace asking for 250k.

Wow, hatch sir? Yes, di maganda yung litex-montalban road. Pero madalang lang naman ako dun. Maybe once or twice in a month. Minsan hindi pa. Hehe.
With your mirage, ano po fc mo knowing na same route lang tayo halos?

I dont really know. Before I got the interest in owning a vehicle, nagtataka din ako sa friends ko bakit gusto nila ang hatch over sedan.
I love jazz, kaso wala sa budget yung oldest model na gusto ko, (2009 onwards).
Will check marketplace to see that Getz crdi para mawala curiosity ko, hehe.

Hatch.
Pag walang traffic, mid displays around 18km/l. Lowest i got was around 8km/l dahil sa traffic sa commonwealth. Full tank method ko, i can go 350km per 27 to 30l. Yan ang range ko palagi. Tip. Sa fairview ka magpakarga ng gas para maka mura ka.

Pero, di sya recommended pang "offroad" sa litex montalban road dahil di tatagal pang ilalalim ng kitse dyan.

Tbh, crosswind ticks all of your requirements.
Happy hunting.

Cool. Maybe kung pupunta ako ng Montalban, magmomotor na lang ako. [emoji4]
Of the hatches, I am looking for Mirage din nga para bagu-bagong model pa. Celerio Gen 2 tops my list of hatches, kaso kapresyo pa sya ng Jazz.
Yeah, Crosswind talaga parang swak. Mejo mahirap lang humanap ng maayos pa, since sa budget ko, maswerte na yung 2006 model ng Crosswind ang makuha ko.

*GTI. I saw the CRDI Getz on marketplace. Looks off to me when it comes on looks. Hehe, choosy lang.

If you are really inclined on a hatchback. Check mazda 2 (pre skyactiv).

True, that. If you drive it, it may spoil you for any other subcompact hatch though. [emoji23]

In terms of fuel and maintenance costs, the Crosswind really is king. Purchase price is a tad high, though it will also be very easy to sell come resale time. But you'd have to be careful with regards to black smoke, which it seems to be very prone to.

Di ko na kasi maalis yung impression ng Mazda na gas guzzler, tsaka mahirap ang pyesa.

O nga po e. Grabe pa ang resale ni Crosswind. I have a neighbor selling his XT 2004, kaso may usok na daw dipstick. Price though is less than 200k.

Such cars also tend to have very high mileage, since they are, after all, utility vehicles.

If you do not mind resale value very much, I'd much rather recommend the 1st gen Everest. It makes the Crosswind look grossly overpriced and underequipped in comparison. With regards to FC, I suppose the trick is to not let the turbo spool as much by keeping the revs low and maintaining an acceleration rate similar to what you might normally do in a non-turbo AUV.
