Best SUV

[leodawesome]

2.0L + Gas + CUV's heavy body = swerte ka na sa 6-8km/L

Best candidate I can think of is the X-Trail because it will be cheaper on 09 models because of its low resale value. Maintenance is cheap because its gas. Other cheaper options are Ford Escapes and Mazda Tributes, but they are on 2.4L already.

Sobrang lakas kumain ng gas ang xtrail and it's not well refined.

^ Thanks to the crappy transmission (4AT).

It is actually more refined compared to other non-japanese counterparts of that year. Its just too bland and plain inside.

For me, the Xtrail is the worst. Lalo na pag ulan, sa rear seat ka nakasakay, rinig mo lahat ng splash at sprinkle ng tubig sa wheel wells. The Escape for me is the most comfortable riding and NVH is low though sobrang luma na ng platform for it's time it was and second will be the Rav4. Dalawa din to malakas sa gas, pero mas malakas xtrail.

Why not consider SUVs with bigger engines so that you will have more options?

If you're after fuel efficiency, you should take a look at the Montero. It's more fuel efficient than many 2.0L gasoline engines that are within your budget. If you don't need the 4x4, you can save some money and just get the GLS or preferably the GLS-V variant. It's worth it.
