The best for long trips. Di kaya mas mataas pa ang masisingil niya na renta for this type of van?

Syempre... gusto kasi ay soseee na van. :D Gusto Grand Starex or Grandia GL/Super Grandia pero papayag ba na significantly mas mataas yung price? In most cases the market will still go with the best rates as long as the van is clean, in good condition and malamig ang aircon.

Actually, hindi rin comfortable yung rear seats ng GL Grandia pag long trips. My wife always has to bring a comforter or pillow when we take ours on long drives.

If it was for personal use, definitely Hiace or Grand Starex na yan.

The Urvan is ok for starters as a rental business. The engine is more than capable in hauling a full load of passengers with cargo (luggage, etc.). Simple underchassis construction means easy service. Aircon is a Nissan trademark, no explanation needed.

The Urvan has been around since the 90's, so no small wonder some people might call it old, obsolete, jurassic, etc. But if you take your cue on the hordes of GT Express shuttles roaming around, a huge number of them are Urvans.

Why you ask? The answer is ... simple and easy maintenance.

Yun nga lang matagtag parin ang Grandia even with different seats dahil sa matigas na suspension.

I was thinking of the LWB Starex GRX M/T TCI or CRDi. Should consume less than the GS due to much lesser body weight.

And then, maybe he can get a 2nd hand Urvan to go with it. Para mas maraming mapag-pilian, may mas mahal may mas mura. Hindi ganon kabigat ang trabaho ng sasakyan.

Kung brand new ang bibilhin, sayang din since ipangrerenta ito at hindi rin naman ipag-aalagaan ng husto nung nagrenta. And then ang laki ng depreciation ng brand new na kotse...

what to expect po ba sa brand new na 18seater shuttle? TIA

Based from experience, Urvans have a less bumpy ride kumpara sa Hiace. Pero if you have the money, Grand Starex TCi na dahil pupuntahan ka ng mga pasahero

If we place the MB100 in the picture hindi maganda ang hatak dahil FWD pero maluwag sa loob. Kia Pregio naman, maganda ang ride quality pero pag umabot ng 100km/h shaky na siya and quality is not good.

Kung M/T GS TCi hindi ganon katakaw. Medyo underpowered din kasi ang GS TCi lalo na kapag A/T. It was already underpowered even with the previous model.
