    Hello,

    Im in a dilemma right now. Im looking for a 2nd hand suv within 700k max price.
    And 2012 fortuner G and 2014 trailblazer nakita ko sa fb.
    Hindi ko alam kung sino sa kanila kukunin ko.

    1. Si fortuner madali at mura maintenance vs TB.
    2. Si fortuner underpowered makina since 2.5 makina at wala pa turbo. While si TB, king of the hill that year.
    3. Most of the time kapag long drive to provinces medyo puno or mabigat karga kaya factor sakin si #2.
    4. Mas marami features si TB compared kay fortuner.
    5. For the price, si fortuner G 4x2, while TB top of the line 4x4.
    6. Fortuner got 60,xxx odo while TB got 4x,xxx

    Need ko opinion niyo. Malaki din factor kasi #1

    Go for the newer vehicle, as long as you know its maintenance history. The Trailblazer is like 20k km less in terms of use and that 20k km you might reach in a year or two depending on use.

    If you intend to sell the vehicle after 2-3 years, then go with Toyota due to its resale value.

    VNT Fortuner na yan diba? Yung 2.5 na 144 hp and not the 102 hp?

    If yes, the engine will be sufficienct kahit puno with cargo. Not fast like the Trailblazer, but sufficient.

    If it's the 2.5 na non-VNT, wag na.

    The fortuner he mentioned doesnt have the turbo intercooler.

    So its the underpowered one.

    If you know how to maintain and source out the parts of TB knowing na kunti lang sila sa Pinas and their current status sa market natin, sure go for TB....

    if jut is correct, i would go for Fort, also, easy to maintain...

    Lahat ng Fort may turbo, even the underpowered 102 hp one.

    It just doesn't have an intercooler kaya mahina.

    Note lang sa 2012 Fort na tinitingnan mo, although 6X,XXX lang odo niya, 8, going 9 years na. So malamang sa hindi need mo account timing belt replacement na kasi baka marupok na yung belt niyan sa "tanda". Hindi pa naka timing chain yung generation na yan, if I recall correctly.
