The CVVT Variant isn't bad, at all. And, in the long run, you'll be saving up a little cash compared of you buying the CRDi variant.
The price difference is one, and the maintenance cost too of diesel vs. gas variants

March 31st, 2010 08:25 PM #24Sarili kong opinion:
Kung gagamitin mo ang sasakyan at least 5 years and high mileage (or is it kilometriage? meron bang ganitong terminology?) user ka then crdi is the choice.
Sa maintenance naman ang lugi mo lang sa crdi ay mas marami ang langis ng diesel engine kumpara sa de gasolina. Ang iba like filters ay parehas lang. Mas sturdy at matibay ang built ng diesel engine kaya nga ang mga heavy equipments ay puro diesel engine ang gamit.

March 31st, 2010 10:13 PM #26I'd vote that you buy the CR-V. Reliability wise, you can't go wrong with a Honda. Sure, the Tucson is cheaper but Honda has a higher resale value, cheaper maintenance (10k or 6 months lang) and has a much bigger trunk space.

Higher resale value ang Honda but the Tucson is cheaper when you buy it new... Resale value is just mere perception, with Hyundai's continues momentum their resale value could go only up... And reliability wise parang the tide is changing... The Koreans are the new stars of the industry and the Japanese are now the "has-been"...

Old school diesel engines were sturdier than regular gasoline engines because to produce the same power, you had to make the diesel much bigger. And a bigger engine meant thicker blocks, bigger pistons and stronger connecting rods (to take the high pressure). And they were mechanically very simple. Your typical pre-CRDi diesel was about as sophisticated as a 1960's gasoline engine. Truck diesels have looser tolerances, which is why they pollute more, but are easier to maintain.
In other words... mas matibay because they're much simpler. Heavy equipment doesn't count. They don't have to make their engines ultra-light and fuel efficient, like small motor vehicles do.
A modern CRDi has more parts than a gasoline engine, much tighter tolerances, more expensive high pressure fuel injectors and pump hardware, an expensive turbocharger, a more sophisticated computer control system, and the same weight-saving block and head design as a gasoline engine.
A regular gasoline engine nowadays can go 200-300k kilometers without major issues, except for electronics. A CRDi (or any diesel, for that matter) will usually have pump or injector issues between 150-200k, at the very least.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

April 1st, 2010 01:55 AM #30^ agree with niky. ilan beses ko na sinasabi sa inyo CRDI is just hype .
escape is the best bet today. low acquisition cost, ang dami na parts sa banawe now, what more 4 or 5 yrs from now pag ala na wararanty, can match all the features of almost every top of the line models of other compact suvs.
besides, don't buy an SUV bec. it looks good or its newer. SUVs are purchased for 10 yrs use. why i arrived at this conclusion, my 99 crv is 11 yrs. old with 90Tkm, may minor pagawain like bushings, aircon cleaning and lubrications. tingen ko kaya pa ng crv ko ng 5-8 yrs pa heheh
ganyan katibay ang suv pag inaalagaan mo. the best way para maalagan get 2 talaga. so if you buy now, buy another suv in 5 years. pag used alternately na yan baka nga hindi ka na mag-tsikot forum ehhhhhehehLast edited by Gen. Miting; April 1st, 2010 at 02:00 AM.
