[newbee]

bket yung samin wla hood scoop pero diesel (96' or 97' ata) anyway, what can u guys say about new pajero vs new trooper vs new patrol (i replaced the prado with the patrol, since the prado doesnt have 4x2)

[Supierreman]

newbie,
yep hoodscoop yun... directed to the intercooler.

newbee,

Yung Pajero niyo kasi ay kagaya ng sa akin na GEN II a.k.a. Tonka-look a.k.a. V44 with a 4D56 TDIC engine. Yung hoodscoop available lang on 4M40 engined models (para may distinction between the two).

Yung intercooler ng 4D56 TDIC kumukuha ng hangin mula sa top slot ng front grille. May plastic ducts doon which direct air in between the hood's inner and outer panels (double wall ang hood ng Pajero) and finally into the intercooler which is also aided by a fan mounted underneath it.

ok naman para sa akin ang pajero field master 4x2. dalawang switch yung gusto ko dun bukod dun sa 8-way power adjustable driver seat.

yung unang switch 'Power Switch' ay magamit sa hiway to add extra speed. yun naman another switch is related sa ride, from soft to hard ride naman. ang ayaw ko lang dito ay yung kulay nya dahil ang dami ng lumabas na kulay puti. minsan tatlo kaming puro kulay puti na mag kakasunod sa traffic. at yung unit na napunta sa akin ay hindi ko agad napansin na medyo hindi naka align yung manebela. dalawang beses ko pang binalik sa sa casa bago naayos. pero peformance sa kalsada ok naman.

mas malakas ata yung makina nung bagong trooper. yung outer look ang pinagbasihan ko sa pagpili sa pajero kasi lahat ng napagtanungan ko ay pajero ang suggestion.

[newbee]

wait, lahat ba ng pajero dito sa phils tonka look? yung field master tonka look din ba? whats this blister look ive heard about? yan ba yung wala dito?

[mbt]

blister fender yung facelifted na "tonka-look"... it came out in 1999 or 2000 ata along with the 2.8L diesel... ito yung may malalaking bulging fenders

the Trooper and Pajero and Prado will outperform the Patrol on the road... mabigat at less-biased to road use ang live axle front suspension ng patrol. plus, the Patrol is about 1000 pounds heavier than those three and is much larger. pero panalong-panalo yung patrol sa off-road...

since you're not too interested in off-roading, i think the IFS mid-size suvs would suit your needs better.

[newbee]

what does IFS mean?

[mbt]

independent front suspension... better for on-road ride and handling, generally considered inferior off-road...

[kimpOy]

newbee,
i would love to have your problem anytime! :mrgreen:
simple lang yan
lahat ng mga SUV's na yan hindi nalalayo sa isa't isa, lamang sa pajero sa looks pero lamang trooper sa performance, at mahal ang prado, so they cancel each others out ika nga,

ang tanong alin sa tatlo ang nagpatibok sa puso mo?
para hindi mo ma experiece ang "what if" phenomenon

have a friend who likes the frontier so much, but got a good deal and got himself a strada, up to now he tells me what if i bought the frontier...blah blah blah!

I'm really sold for Patrol, excuse me for being biased. :D

If I were in newbee's position, I'd still prefer the new Patrol 'coz of its parts. Naka-abang na lahat ng parts nito for 4X4. Being a big guy like him, di hamak yata mas bagay ang robust image of the said vehicle. :D But then again, he's more into on-road driving than off-roading, exterior and interior accessories is the hard part. Kung porma din lang ang gusto mo get the field master pajero, with all the ralliart accessories you may want in it. (just don't overdress it) Kung engine reliability naman and basic SUV ang hilig mo the latter choice would be better option. (with new "skyroof" option, pwede gamitin ni erpat for his campaign lalo na malapit na ang elections!) :mrgreen:

You have all the advantage of being born with the "DEEP Pocket", get one vehicle if it doesn't suit your taste sell it then get the other one. :D
