    I wouldn't bet on the 2.3L Tribute... gas guzzler and mahina ang hatak. We have one and our 1st gen CRV is much better torque than the Tribute. Hirap nga akong umakyat to Baguio via Marcos highway (buti na lang hindi kami dumaan sa Kennon Road). But for other Tribute drivers in the other threads, theirs sounds fine, di naman gas guzzler. Hmm... di kaya may sira yun amin?!

    I'm also strongly considering buying the GV to replace the CRV. That's why I'm looking for more comments.

    Once there was a Suzuki booth in Robinson's Galleria, it's a Shaw branch, sabi ng sales agent na per order basis sila coz they don't stock a lot of GVs.

    Ok na sa akin if the consumption is around 6 km/liter kasi ganon din naman yung CRV namin pag city driving.

    Concern ko lang talaga ay yung hatak niya. Kasi 2.0L pa rin, same as the previous model pero lumaki yung size nitong 06 GV. So iniisip baka mahina yung torque niya. Horsepower is not a factor kasi di naman ako mabilis magpatakbo he he he!!

    Bro Luc, why not consider also Hyundai Tucson at least less than P1M din naman . So far no negative feedback naman on the Tucs owner on their ride the 4X2 VGT CRDI /AT could be a good choice.

    Regarding the power & torque issue, eto yung nakita ko sa C! Magazine & from the brochure of the 06 Grand Vitara:

    Previous Grand Vitara 2.0
    Curb Weight: 1355-1700 kg (I guess the heaviest is the XL7)
    HP: 126
    Torque (lb-ft): 128

    2006 Grand Vitara 2.0
    Curb Weight: 1530-1550 kg
    HP: 145
    Torque (lb-ft): 142 or 193 Nm * 4,000 rpm

    Would you guys know if the the increase in Torque will compensate on the added weight of the 06 Grand Vitara?
