I've driven almost all the AUV/MPV in the market, between the 2 Crosswind ako hands down, there's just something I don't like about the Adventure na hindi ko ma explain, para di ako gaanong kumportable sa Adventure, mas kumportable pa ako mag drive ng Tamaraw FX, pero to each his own, opinion ko lang. Ang ayaw ko naman sa Crosswind lately eh masyadong mainit sa mata ng mga hinayupak na nanghuhuli ng smoke belching, feeling ko nga kahit hindi mausok ang sasakyan basta nakitang tatak Isuzu yari na sa mga ogags. Ever considered the Innova? By far yan ang pinakagusto ko sa mga na drive ko.

sa akin lang ito ha? i've driven both. i am more comfortable with the Advie.
better driving comfort, less tagtag.
however, i feel that the Crosswind has better torque.

My vote goes for the Crosswind XT. Adventure is good too somehow,

here's why...

-when it comes to engine to engine basis. Crossiwnd is much more maintenance efficient..Isuzu 4JA1 comes on a timing gears which no need to replace overtime or at 100k kms. while the Mitsibishi 4D56 comes on a timing belt (two timing belt). Its an additional saving for maintenance cost ;) though when it comes to power to power rating, both are great..they are perfect for hauling (but I feel crosswind is much more powerful and much bit more torque in action than the Adventure) For efficiency, hands down, they are both 2.5 so no problem with that!

Parehas lang mausok, marami na masyado sa kalye at more than a decade technology (mas matanda adventure kasing edad pa ng FX).

Mas comfortable ang ride sa adventure compared sa crosswind, mas tahimik rin ang makina, ang main advantage lang ng crosswind ay ang mataas na floor price resale value kasi sa line of thinking na isuzu engine.

Torque mas ok ang Crosswind, so kung heavy traffic ka lagi and stop and go, mag croswind ka.. Pero kung di naman ganun ang byahe mo, mag adventure, sa presyo ng crosswind na XT baka yung mid end na yan ng adventure.

medyo bias ako sa adventure because i own one.. pero bago ako bumili noon pinagpilian ko din yan 2..

interior: adventure
masyadong plain ang interior ng crosswind lalo na yung XT (sayang wala na yung XTi yun sana kukunin ko) sa adventure medyo modern na yung interior at dashboard.

exterior: adventure
mas ma porma ang adventure masyadong utilitarian ang crosswind pero kung sa XUV/Sportivo mas pogi yan..

Engine: 4d56
well the 4JA1 as they say is bullet proof daw.. pero grabe ang usok nyan kahit idle compared sa 4d56.. hindi ka tatagal sa garage mo na naka idle yan kasi ma suffocate ka talaga sa usok.. timing belt change is at 100K kms almost 8 years of use yan average of 12K kms per year.. hindi ka nga magpapalit ng timing belt sa 4ja1 sakit naman ng katawan ang aabutin mo sa sobrang engine shaking nyan..

under chassis: crosswind
may Achilles heel ang adventure.. ball joint.. it needs checking every PMS kasi pag napabayaan yan pwedeng mahugot.. yung sa akin after 2 years may konting kalog na.. pinalitan ko agad * 750 each

Mahina rin under chassis and pati chassis ng crosswind.

Compare mo ang same age na crosswind, adventure and revo.

Mas madali lumubog kaha ng crosswind.

wow. nice insights mga gurus.

how about km/l? im on a lookout din sa next na sasakyan namin.

thanks..

Driven both also.

The Adventure drives like any mid-90's Pajero. The Crosswind has more noise and cabin vibration.

For day to day use, the light brown shade of the Crosswind is so hard to keep clean. My pal has one and he uses is alone most of the time but that shade of beige really attracts dirt like a magnet. Our other pal's 03 adventure with its dark gray interior still looks cleaner than my pal's 2011 unit.

Not sure what color interior the adventure is sold in nowadays.
