BATTLE OF THE NEW SUV's - All New Everest vs 2016 Montero vs 2016 Fortuner

[mhvNodagal]

i was at the box a while ago and there was a fortuner G model on display. parang ang sikip pa din talaga compared to the everest, sorento and santa fe. also the 3rd row leg room is cramped.

deal breaker for me, the V model 4x2 only has the 145 hp(?) 2.4L engine and price is 1.779M. bare na bare. and the center panel looks weird. if i will pay that money i might as well get another ford everest but in 4x2 2.2 titanium premium trim. more power, not bare. kaso lang nga i will end up with 2 of the same.

i'll just convince the wifey to keep the sorento another 2-3 years.

I was in the same predicament 3 months ago, fort 4x2v or the eve 4x2 titanium. At around 1.779M, I can get the just introduced 4x2 eve titanium with premium package by adding a little bit. I ended up buying the 4x2 eve titanium with premium package.

But if I had the money, I also agree with minicarph on getting the bare fort and the TOTL everest with premium package. I still can't get the notion that "toyota is more reliable and trouble free vehicle" out of my head.

"more reliable and trouble free" nowadays? only a fan would believe that.

"more reliable and trouble free" nowadays? only a fan would believe that.

and that, is why toyota is at the top of the heap right now. because they have more fans than the competition.
they did their homework, and they are riding on their reputation built from investments of yesteryear, while the rest of the competition is still trying to build theirs up.
it is not because their product is the best. it is because people believe they are.

Arguably,- that is the reputation that was built over the years....

Hard to accomplish,- but you reap the fruits of those long years of being a trustworthy supplier.....

Till I bought my Innova. hindi pala bullet proof considering casa maintain and It's not even cheap to maintain.
But I agree, It's about what the people think.

Why? What is the problem with your Innova bro.?

For me, it was the other way around [if my perception about your experience is correct],- it was the Innova that brought my faith back to Toyota...

Although I have not bought another Toyota after our Innova....

chempo chempo lang siguro.
i haven't replaced anything non-consumable, since i got it in 2005. and it's done 105K km already.
tekateka... baka naman, gini-gimmick lang kayo ng casa? replace kahit hindi naman kailangan? gamit nito at noon, kahit hindi naman called for?

My previous ride was Adventure then pinalitan ko ng Innova after just 3 years and 20 days, may tama na rack and pinion ko hindi naman rough road ang daan and of course out of luck outside na sa warranty, sumunod aircon. gaya ng ibang owner makakatipid ka outside casa, akala ko din dati mas mura pag Toyota, Toyota eh diba? mapapa-mura ka din pala sa mahal.

malas nyo naman!

we have 3 toyotas in the garage. 2003, 2005, 2012. none of their steering systems needed fixin', ever.
although, the 2005 did give me some initial misgivings, when the rear evaporator sprung a leak on year 5 (?). but after that, ok na until now, 10 years after.

Alam ko din naman gawain ng mga casa Toyota man Mitsubishi or Isuzu kung sa pms nga dami ko pinapatanggal isang useless and un-necesary maintenance gaya ng engine flush kabago-bago. pero ako na mismo nakaramdam ng problema before ipacheck-up kumakalog yong steering wheel na akala mo matatanggal yong gulong, safe to ride daw abay!
so far naman yon yong pinaka malaking gastos ko. pero after 3 years lang? I hope wala na munang susunod na problema gaya ng experience nyo.
