May 5th, 2017 12:47 AM #20624wd is that all 4wheels is powered by engine. To dig deeper. There are awd (fulltime)and parttime 4wd. Fulltime is usually use on high speed for extra traction on slippery road and parttime is usually use for trail low speed high torque steep rocky road. I have driven an audi awd from newjersy to north carolina during winter. And indeed it helps a lot. For parttime i have tried pinatubo trail and river crossing in tanay. Most of the ppv's mux . Fort .chevy are parttime. Which you cannot use on highspeed like hiway. Only monty and everest have these features to use it both. Thats y im comparing both of them. The everest is fulltime 4x4 with trail capability. While the monty you have a choice to be fulltime 4x4 as well as fulltime 2wd which saves you 1 to 5 percent gas money.Besides superlect has been proven its reliability in dakkar and old pajeros about 25 yrs ago. Indeed we can compare all 4x4 . Since it is ppv's and its 4x4 . Whether its part time or fulltime. Price , technology may differ. Monty may not have the best technology but surely it has the best overall price per technology and price per features. And certainly monty engine is the most advance in passenger car first in its class to introduce mivecs in diesel engine.

May 5th, 2017 01:05 AM #2063Well its more traumatic to be carnapped without insurance that waiting 3 to 6 months of investigation. At least may makukuha ka. Besides insurance is not for carnap priority. Mas madalas naman natin ma encounter accident. Saw one who is park in alabang town center hit by a lady driven automatic accord nataranta binanga yun isang kotse nahulog sa parking. Accidents like my classmate total wreck SIR civic. Which insurance paid the car. Kahit anong ingat mo. May driver naman na d nag iingat. Madalas mangyari sa nlex slex ang magkakasunod na bangaan tumbok .especially during rainy season. Yung barkada ko jazz nasunog sa kalsada. Binayaran ng insurance. So insurance is peace of mind over all. You spend money on vacation. You also need to spend money on peace of mind. Regarding sa parts ng ford. Surplus and Replacement parts are cheaper than oem parts. If the car is not abundant. No one will sell replacement parts and few are surplus . Auto supply and casas will not sell or stock slow moving parts. Small matter Such as aircon vent. Power windows cable and motor etc. major engine and trany parts. Surplus for door and trims. When the car get old you would not want to spend much money on parts that is close to its resale value. Lets say you accidentally destroy your engine out of negligence. Our 5yrs old mitsubishi L300 engine was destroyed by our driver due to over heating. Would cost 40k if i order new cylinder head and wait for a month. While surplus just cost me 7000 pesos. People love isuzus not because they are reliable but because of abundance of surplus among trucks. Even turnilyo meron.

May 5th, 2017 02:43 AM #2068Though they have the roughest condition. They have good roads . Well engineered. The road cambers . Safety regulation. Clean air act. Etc . You are mentioning ford build tough. Yes but its on certain model. Not all model are tough.the car and sedan light vehicle. Are not reliable. While japs car are almost consistent in all line of models. Ive been in u.s for sometime and even work as partime mechanics during summer in vegas. Yet the car we repair are mostly american car. And my senior mechanics. Says that most of the americans dont like their products. Ford was previously no.1 in car manufacturing before. I thought they sell more because they are good. i found out that they produced car more than toyota because the govt support the company. Being standard fleet issue car such as ambulance and police car and many govt service own utilities. Thats makes its count more. But this fleet car dont profit much as retail does. And eventually coz of reliability issues jap car are preferred by many. Some americans still remember and question the Ford ethics of liability during its ford pinto case. Its even tackled in our class during my college years

Yes, because 100 degree boiling point is measured at sea level. What's interesting also is that...
