February 7th, 2014 02:47 PM #31Saang probinsya ka bro? Kumusta naman ang traffic conditions dun? The gas is fine, as long as OK ka sa higher fuel cost. Fortuner gas is known to get as low as 5km/L thereabouts in Metro Manila stop and go traffic.
Now kung ang ikinakatakutan mo sa Crosswind ay ang repairs lang, no worries naman dahil old school diesel at walang mamahaling electronics. Mura at madali hanapin ang piyesa at matibay ang makina. Kung makakahanap ka ng fresh at low mileage unit, you should be in for many years of painless ownership.

February 7th, 2014 04:36 PM #32^ ow no .. 5km/l ?! , parang natakot naman ako sa fortuner na gas version, sa nababasa ko kasi dito 7-10km/L daw ,central luzon dito sir ok naman ang traffic condition, sa city driving hindi naman parang edsa na stop and go .. kaya tumakbo sa city ng 40kph-80kph ... bihirang bihira ang traffic
may mga hi-way din dito na mauubos ang lakas ng sasakyan sa haba at luwag
sa crosswind kasi kinakatakot ko baka mag loko yung nozzle at fuel pump dahil sa edad na rin ng sasakyan ... yung kasi kadalasan nagiging sakit ng diesel based on my experience.. wala din ako makita na low mileage kasi pina mababa na nakita ko na 2003 eh nasa 200k , may mga nakikita ako yun mga modelo talaga

February 7th, 2014 05:40 PM #34Haha~ forgot which Tsikoteer it was who shared that his Fortuner VVTi gets 5.2km/L on average. Gas mileage of gasoline powered cars can vary a lot between traffic conditions. Take our Accord 3.0V6, city driving gets aroumd 5km/L, while a Baguio trip got slightly over 10km/L (same figure gotten by our Revo diesel, which gets 7.5km/L city driving). Ah, the joys of driving in the province...
Our 2001 Revo diesel currently has 106tkms on the clock. Aside for the occasional calibration, no problem with the fuel system, or the whole engine for that matter. Yes, the injector nozzles have been replaced at 80+tkms, but being old school diesel, it only cost around 400 pesos apiece.
If the car's for your mom, and you don't mind getting gas, perhaps you might consider the Mitsubishi Fuzion? It's more spacious and comfortable than the Innova and less bulkier than the (also cramped) Fortuner.
Would you be willing to look for units in Metro Manila? You may find fresher and lower mileage cars here.
