    Hey guys i'm going to buy a 2nd hand SUV soon and i prefer one of the three.
    It used to be a toss up between the lc80 and a safari but my wife said they're both old models and she saw an ad of a 2004 everest. So there we are... !

    i presume less than 700k ang budget? kung 4x4 yung everest, dun ako. otherwise, you can get a 00/01 safari for less than that tapos pwede mo nang pagandahin lalo. sigurado ka pa sa tibay at tatag ng patrol. medyo sobrang luma na yung lc80 na makukuha mo kaya 3rd option ko na yun. IMHO

    in the end, depende talaga yan sa gusto ng misis mo :D

    Among your choices, LC80 pa rin ang pinakamaganda at pinakamatibay.

    Everest gets my vote also.

    The 1992 LC will have its merits and following but it will show its age, mechanically speaking, by now. Parts are quite expensive.

    The Safari is also nice. Bulky vehicle but offers uncharacteristically limited space inside.

    The 2004 Everest is relatively new and hopefully does not logged that many miles. its quite a good family car albeit do not have the road presence as your other choices.

    You may also opt for a Fieldmaster Pajero but it commands a higher resale value in the 2nd hand market..

    Talaga bang masikip ang safari? kasi yan ang isang concern ko kaya kami nag vie for SUV, yung passenger space. Yung panganay ko is 6'2", ang current car namin is the 1st gen pajero, naka side view siya kung umupo.. Although the cabin height is ok.

what to buy? safari, lc80 or an everest?
