    Montero is reliability, 7seater, long life chasis, parts/after sales availability.

    Sorento is unique in design, reliability is to be find out, comfort is a bit favor vs montero, interior is favorable.

    If I have the rugged kind personality & in need of 7seater SUV, I will choose the Montero.
    But if I need more comfort, no issue for the passenger, relibility will be charge to experience, then I'll choose the Sorento.

    Sorento na lang sir. Pero kung hanap mo reliability and if you will use it for a long time lets say 10yrs then go with Montero. If not, then Sorento na lang.

    para mo naman sinabi na less than 10 years ang life ng sorento, e may makikita naman na 2003/2004 sorento na gumagala sa metro. yun lang nga 2.5 crdi makina nun, same as hyundai starex GRX. at yung mga gen 2 santa fe wala pa naman mga sira, 2007 yun so 6 years na. so same din lang ng sorento tatagal din naman dahil same engine and patform.

    at bakit nyo nasabi mas reliable ang montero tci? remember late comer ang montero, mas nauna ang santa fe/sorento na lumabas sa market by a few years. so how can something that is newer be said to be more reliable? dahil mitsubishi? dahil 4d56? oh come on! smoke belcher engine hello!

    paano makakapasok sa US e bagsak sa roll-over test. nag-protest pa ang mitsubishi dahil hindi naman daw lumuliko ng mabilis pag suv ang i-drive. e bakit yung ibang suv pumasa, montero bagsak.
