Bang for the Buck Base Model SUV

Kung Montero kukunin mo, huwag mo nang baguhin tail lights, kelangan mo ng visibility sa bundok, and IM sure sa Montero kitang kita ka.

though, meron hindi nag o-on ng lights pag umulan. i live in the bondoks too and many dont do this when it rains or when the fog is thick or entering tunnels.

One important factor is familiarity of a mechanic in case your unit breaks down later on. Sanay mga mekaniko sa toyota, mitsubishi. Pwede na rin siguro ang isuzu. Last on the list is Ford, maraming nahihirapan kung ford aayusin. Happened first hand when my father-in-law’s focus tdci emitted black smoke. Naka-2 talyer na magkaiba sinabi. Finally had to bring back sa casa. Ayun bumigay transmission na pala

like the old, air-cooled VW.
some procedures in fixin' the car sometimes go against the more established moves of the japanese cars.
OT.

TS, Sa Monty ako sa choices mo. May mitsubishi naman siguro sa kapatagan malapit sa yo. Pero kung kaya Toyota Fort.

Yup, the Innova was the 3rd best selling car in the country for 2017.



Kahit pagsamahin benta ng MUX and Trailblazer kulang pa rin.

it's probably the price.
the innova is one of, if not the, cheapest big-ish vehicle in the market.
plus, it has three ovals on the front hood.

Hanap ka 1st or 2nd gen Monty, sub- 1M na mga yan, may sukli kapa sa budget mo.
At kayang kaya ang bundok

these are noisy compared to the newer mux1.9

there is a blogger who was complaining in traffic and i can hear the 4d56 engine rattling the cabin.

Personally I've gotten used to the odd taillights of the Montero and I don't think that's the biggest problem with it's aesthetics. For me, it's the lack of a rear spoiler that makes the back of the low-end Monteros look very awkward. Adding a spoiler does wonders to improve its rear aesthetics. The cover on the tail lamps helps too but it's really secondary to the spoiler.

Pu nga sir Jut. Parang mas ok talga pag may tail lights. Do you own one? Which would you prefer among the 3 choices?

[bolog]

Mukhang down to Montero or MUx and labanan ah... With the discount sa Montero its a good buy na considering that the Mux on my list is the old 2.5 power mill na EURO2 standard lng

[GTi]

Kung old 2.5L na MUX lang naman, Montero na. Layo na masyado ang agwat hehe~ But visit the showroom first before making a decision.

Still tempting you to get a used unit though. Even if just 2017 model, you will save hundreds of thousands due to depreciation in what is basically still a new car.

Just curious, why do you need so many cars? You have a Fiesta, Montero, Ranger, and now an Innova? [emoji846]

Really hard for me to choose, simply because in reality I would never buy any of the choices you mentioned. I find them too bare, too stripped down. Parang masabi lang na naka-PPV but they're not in the same level as the midrange variants of those cars.

I would personally just save more and get at least a Fortuner G, Everest Trend, or MUX 1.9 LS-A. Or a secondhand unit of a Fortuner 2.4V or Everest Titanium 2.2.

But if I really had to choose between the 3 choices, I would probably choose the Everest Ambiente. It looks bare but has pretty decent features. I would just upgrade the rims to the OEM 20's from the Titanium and probably have some of the exterior bits painted.

Yung Montero GLX bare unit ba siya? Compared sa Ambiente ng Everest?

Same lang, both the Montero GLX and Everest Ambiente have the basics covered - Bluetooth, 2 airbags, ABS, etc. The Montero has cruise control and automatic climate control, while the Everest has traction control.

Hindi ko lang talaga type itsura ng Montero that's why I prefer the Everest. But like I previously said, if I were to buy a PPV I would definitely skip the entry level manual variants and go for at least a Fortuner 2.4G, Everest Trend, or MUX 1.9 LS-A.
