    Hi guys

    Ask ko lang kung ano yung sa tingin nyo na magandang SUV for family use. We are 6 in the family and have 2 yayas so about 8 kami. Ung SUV for going to the mall and ung occasional na out of town trips to baguio/subic/bulacan trips. We consider the Grand Starex pero we find it too big lalo na kung dadalin siya ng dad ko sa work nya everyday ng mag-isa lang siya. Yung fortuner din kaso nga lang, matagtag siya. We also like the new Montero sport kaso nga lang ay parang hindi maganda yung looks niya at mukhang masikip anng interior. Also thinking about Santa Fe pero di pa namin ito nakita ng malapitan and we don't know anyone who owns one. Naisip din nmn yung Nissan Serena kaso nga lang wlang cargo space. Innova was just too common and hate the 3rd row seats. So can you guys help us naman in choosing a new car. We already have a sedan for my mom which is an automatic pero malaklak sa gas.

    Preference:
    1. Looks
    2. Space (good for family of 6 and 2 yayas; pero di nakakahiyang dalin kahit mag-isa lang)
    3. Comfort
    4. Fuel Coonsumption
    5. Features

    TY sa inyong lahat in advance!

    Space for 8 people? ... you might be looking for a VAN.

    H. Starex would be the better choice.

    Yeah. SUVs cannot handle that many passengers esp. if meron mga luggage.


    Another choice for a van is the Urvan Estate.

    If you find the Starex too big, a next option/choice could be the Kia Carnival.

    Get the Kia Carnival or the Grand Starex. Give it a very black tint then your problem is solved.

    That way, one SUV down from the road.

    ok naman yung choices niyo, why dont you add ford everest on your list. panigurado ma-eenjoy niyo yun kasi reliable at magandang pang out of town trips. mas malaki pa siya sa fortuner at santa fe yun nga lang wala masyadong ammenities compare sa santa fe pero ayos talaga yan.

    Masyadong maliit ata ang Ford Everest para sa kanila.

    Starex would the the best if the budget is around 1.2. Other alternatives, would be Innova, Livina and APV Type II for lower budget.
