In our case, when i bring it to our worksites or properties in the province on a sunny day, we have to leave the engine running on the Monty to keep any semblance of cool and the blower is running on a higher setting then the Innova. This is with 3-4passengers on board and 3M tint. id defintiely get a light colored unit and put V-kool tint if i were to buy one for personal use.
In my books, it's a 5 out 10 because ive seen better on our Pajero and a lot of modern cars today that cost less.

same issue as vinj. we owned a 2009 Monty GLS before and i will rate it 5-6. as I said before from other thread, bias lang siguro ako dahil naka auto climate yung Innova G namin kaya mas mabilis lumamig ang cabin when parked under the sun. but then, mas mabilis pang lumamig yung cabin ng Vios ko at 1996 Pajero(local) namin compared to our MS.
i don't know if my observation is right, pero napansin ko lang na hindi kasi instant yung kagat ng lamig ng aircon ng MS 'pag binuksan.

Mahina talaga in my experience A/C ng Mitsu. Toyota is better and mabango ung buga ng A/C.

Thanks for the answers. It should give the future buyers an idea if the AC's performance would suit their needs.

August 20th, 2013 09:16 AM #25Thanks all for the info. My 6/7 seater conundrum has been solved somewhat. You have helped me make a decision. The 3 vehicles here I thought were a compromise to my perceived need for space but in the end would not have been practical. You can either bring 6 people more like 4 adult size and 2 children or luggage but not both. Not wanting a van, the options would have been way off the budget, like the Explorer, Pilot, etc. So decided to keep my existing ride and just get another 5 seater CUV. Now which one?

August 20th, 2013 11:49 PM #29Can increase budget to 1.4 to 1.5
Am getting suggestions of CRV 2.0S or 2.4 SX or RAV 4 4x2 base or Xtrail 2.5 4x2. If my priorities are ride comfort, reliability, resale value, safety, space, and features and will have to use this for the next 5 yrs., which do you suggest? Can only choose from Japanese manufacturers. Is there a big diff on FC from the 2.0 liter and 2.4/2.5?

August 21st, 2013 12:43 AM #30Not much. 2.0-2.5A/T gasoline CUVs typically get somewhere around 5-7km/L, depending heavily on how you drive and traffic conditions.
For example, our '06 Tribute 2.3 A/T can get as bad as 5km/L on average with a heavy foot, but achieves 7km/L when feathering the throttle, both city driving.
If it was a 2.0M/T though, you may get a bit better than that. I'd suggest a CRV 2.0L 6MT.
