    It's the new Everest... the Crosswind can't even compare by a bit to it.

    The ride is good enough for our not-so-perfect roads and the acceleration of the 2.5L engine is very good (as compared to the old Everest).

    Regarding maintenance, it's almost the same for them. There's a few problems plaguing some Everests & Crosswinds but nothing major that I've read so far.

    sir, go for the Everest. Do not be easily intimidated with the sportivo's gadgets, unless you are into fuel economy its a go for you.

    Mahal ang maintenance? I own both a Ford and an Isuzu... and when it comes to maintenance at the dealership, I'd say there's not much difference.

    For the first 30,000-50,000 kilometers, you should go to the dealership for regular maintenance, so as not to cause any warranty problems.

    The only thing going for the Sportivo against the Everest is the OHV timing gear equipped non-CRDi engine. It's a very simple engine, which won't be as sensitive to diesel quality. And it's quite fuel efficient.

    The new Everest, though, isn't as big a fuel-guzzler as the old one. It's very powerful, even in 2.5 form, and is probably too fast for its tires and height. It rides better than the Sportivo, it handles and BRAKES better than the Sportivo, and it has much much more space.

    If you buy a Crosswind, the best deal is the base model, or the next one up, with power-windows. Even fully-loaded, in XUV or Sportivo trim, it's not really very luxurious, due to the choppy, rolling ride and the crude engine. Trust me... I drive one.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Mostly the same... the 4x4 is two tone, but the 2.5 is single color. There's a sort of titanium blue, black, gold and silver. Not sure about the rest.

    Mga bossing, newbie here, pasensya na, di ko mahanap ang "introductions forum", so pa join na lang po. Almost made up my mind to go for the 2.5 everest. 2 nights na nga akong napupuyat kababasa ng forums.
    My question:

    What's better? the 2.5 everest AT or the manual? Pros & cons please.

    I'd normally say MT, but I didn't gel well with the stick of the Everest MT. And while cars with electronic throttles usually feel less sluggish with MT, there's still some response delay with the Everest MT, so I'd say the AT is the way to go with this one.

    Maybe I'm just sour-graping because the Everest's electronic throttle wouldn't let me burn rubber during the test-drive's acceleration segment, shutting the engine down when I tried to slip the clutch. :hysterical: But if the computer won't let you modulate power delivery with the clutch and throttle, what good is a manual?

    a very good point sir. i think the crosswind and sportivo are classed as AUV while the everest is an SUV. so for me, ang katapat ng everest sa isuzu range is the alterra though meron yata silang difference sa price. just expressing my own view. Peace!

    CRDi is generally smoother, quieter, higher-revving and more fuel-efficient.

    There's still some worry about the long term effects of "dirty" diesel on CRDi injectors, but if you live in and around the city, and fill only at new and botique-style (big name, big space) gas stations, you should have no problems.

    so, does it mean that it is more better to go for a M/T than A/T when it comes to everest 4x2?
