    Funds allocated for these became the Benzes, BMWs and LC200s I see running around the Malacanang area regularly?

    Just today, seen along the road... 3 brand new fortuner escort vehicles hehe. Got a glimpse of the dealership name... Toyota Davao

    ... ocho ocho-o..?

    there should be a law.
    government-purchased vehicles should be limited to certain models only, depending on who's going to use them.
    for escort vehicles and support vehicles, hanggang L300FB or mahindra lang dapat sila. para mas useful for lugging cargo around na rin.

    So far nakakita na ako ng mga S Class, 7 Series, a few Lexus models, maraming LC200, the odd starex na iisa lang. Escort models are normally older Patrol Safari units (ginamit 2 elections ago? hehe), Fortuners, Innova (minsan V variant pa hahaha). Obviously VIPs since they are there often and LAGING may police escort holding up traffic for us normal people.

    Kaya nung nagsilabasan ng SALN mga senators and congress naten... natawa nalang ako. Value palang ng kotse nila mas mataas na sa SALN, paano pa kaya yung lupa nila sa Forbes?

    If there's one thing I learned in life doc, you can't trust people all the time, but you can trust the direction of money all the time.

    These "modernization" and building initiatives may be good for us but the pols will surely benefit heavily from them.

    So replacing all those old trucks is possible.
