I looked at:

1. KIA SPORTAGE 2010
2. CAPTIVA 2012
3. EVEREST 2007
4. SUBARU 2007-09

I have used my brand new 2010 GLS lancer for almost 10 years and this will be my first SUV/cross over. I'm OK with gas/diesel as long as parts and maintenance will not be that heavy sa bulsa. My budget to maintain the car is probably higher than what I am spending for my lancer. I know na tataas din sya coz SUV nga plus Pati gas/diesel.

Gusto ko din ung dashboard na medyo bago na look para I really feel na nag upgrade ako ng unit.

I have Subaru there kasi madami na din nag sa sabi na hindi naman daw ganun na kamahal.

Any help/advise will be appreciated mga sirs.

Thanks.
Gen 2 Santa Fe pasok na sa budget. Parts are generally readily available. Just make sure that there are no odd sounds from the suspension and vibration from the supports.

Among your choices, dun ako sa Everest. Of course practicality and efficiency are higher priorities for me than comfort and refinement. The big cabin space, high payload capacity, high wading depth and diesel engine make it an excellent daily driver/harabas vehicle.

And whichever car you get, change all the fluids, filters and belts. Oh, and a good radiator cleaning. I learned that the hard way. [emoji28]
