AFAIK no ABS and LSD ang old Hiace. Ang alam ko leaf spring yung old Commuter, not sure about the Super Grandia. Magkalevel lang naman yan sa Urvan Escapade in terms of age and level of technology. The Urvan Estate is much more modern, and more reasonably priced.

I remember the family of a rich relative who used to always maintain a Pregio in their garage to ferry their 90+ year old family matriarch. They sell and change for another ever three years. Once they bought a Hiace Super Grandia for a change. Hindi nagustuhan ni 90+ year old lola, pangit daw sakyan. I found out not long after, binenta na kaagad yan and another new Pregio taking its place! Ngayon umuwi na sa kalangitan ang matandang lola at phased out na ang Pregio, but they still maintain a big passenger van in their garage. Grand Starex CRDi na ngayon.
