    Mahal piyesa.ng old fords if ang mga nasisira eh yun mga electronics like blower resistor, tire pressure monitoring at kung anu-ano pa toys nilagay sa mgs american cbus ni ford. You cant just source this out in banawe

    That's why it's better to get the monteros and old pajeros fieldmasters for flood or mountain use.

    Kahit may suv ka na naka lift, may snorkel pa, maiipit ka pa rin sa traffic kasi karamihan sa daan ayaw o hindi kaya tumawid sa baha. So ganun rin. Maghintay ka rin. But i do get your point na may peace of mind talaga. But just saying na di ka pa rin makakalusot sa late night traffic tuwing may ulan

    Yep.

    I'm driving a sedan, compared before sa innova na mas higher ang clearance yes medyo takot ako sa mga panahon ngayon.

    I do get your point, Kaya ako either stop over somewhere me and my car is safe.

    Wala naman ata na baha na super instant out of nowhere.

    If no choice? Then sit it out, wag lumusong.

    BTT

    Another rich people problem hehe

    Peace Cathy!

    Get the Fortuner, sell the 10th Gen!

    Old Expeds with the 4.6L V8 are prone to ignition and cylinder misfire thus the reason for the usual on-and-off of the check engine light. You just need to bring it to the highway and get it revving/cruising to get the cylinders firing properly.

    Locally, I think the biggest problem you can have with an Expedition is if the air suspension fails. They say it's an expensive fix.

    The coil suspension replacement is 20k. That would be a permanent fix. Its a bit picky with fuel so when we had one we would only gas up in one place. I got a check engine light before from simply gassing up in a dodgy place (east ave. petron)

    Excluding the air suspension, we never got a bill thats more than 15k. Brake pads are cheaper than Subaru Pads (around 4k for fronts as far as I remember)

    But honestly its a bit overreacting to get one just for the floods. It cant fit in some Makati parking buildings. Its as long as a new Ranger but much wider.

    Is the Fortuner 2.4 4x2 G DSL Manual a good buy or should I just wait until I can afford an AT? My Mom said if I want it that bad then I should sell my 10th + 11th gen. But then I would have to buy another older sedan for my coding car (P200k MAX).
    kung pang-baha, i personally prefer MT over AT.
    sell the younger altis, so's to get more money to buy the fort. magiging main car mo naman yata ang fort, right?

    If I get a new fortuner I have to sell both cars because it costs 1.3M. I still need to cover extra bec the 2 cars won't amount to 1.3M

    Then I still need to buy an old coding sedan.

    selling your two cars to cover much of the fort's price... then buying another used car with questionable history, for coding?
    perhaps you not sell either car first, until you know what your fort's plate number is gonna be. then sell the appropriate car. at least here, you know for sure your coding car is in good condition.
    let your financier worry about the payment first.

    By the time you get your fortuner, it would no longer be rainy season.
