    Hello Guys,

    A pleasant day to you!
    Me and my wife are looking for our first car.
    We have narrowed our choices to 2 auvs that we think are suitable for our family's needs:
    - a daily car that would be traversing EDSA from Taguig to Commonwealth (every weekdays, about 230km per week)
    - once or twice a month travel from Taguig going to province (Laguna then Batangas and back to Taguig 175km total)

    As of the moment, its only me and my wife but we are looking that this will be our long term car when our family gets bigger.

    We are looking on both of these cars but would really like to ask for your inputs as well.
    The only issues that we have now or that is keeping us from buying one of these are the following:

    Adventure:
    Based from the threads that I have read, mausok kung magtagal tagal.
    Mejo matagtag sa loob.
    A bit cramped inside?


    Innova:
    A bit big for the 2 of us?
    A bit heavy as well on the budget if are to add a few accessories that the Adventure already has.

    Well these are only some of our insights and we would be grateful for your inputs.
    Thank you so much in advance!

    innova.
    the adventure is really too old....and less refined.
    accessories lang naman ang lamang ni adventure eh.... and you will appreciate the bigger space.

    I agree that the Innova better suits your purpose.

    Innova din vote ko.
    Much much more comfortable ang Innova vs the Advie.
    Don't worry kung masyado syang malaki para sa inyong dalawa. You'll never know when you'll need the extra space. Better road presence din.
    FC, parang mas matipid pa nga ang Innova if I am not mistaken.
    More powerful engine, mas malakas humatak.
    For the accessories and amenities, marami naman pong value for money (I wouldn't want to use the term cheap) aftermarket products jan.
    I also find the vinyl seats of the Innova as an advantage, bukod sa di na dumihin compared to fabric, to some people leatherette ang perception nila dito.

    Isa sa mga natutunan ko dito sa tsikot..

    You can always buy the aftermarket accessories that you wanted, but there is no such thing as aftermarket additional space.

    Innova na, the Adventure is really awful to drive for me, for some reason yan ang pinaka ayaw ko i-drive sa lahat ng mga AUV na na-drive ko, even the old Tamaraw FX mas gusto ko pa i-drive.

    The only thing I don't like about the Innova J is that it feels too bare, kung kaya sana ng budget, go for the E model. I think its the best value among the Innova line.

    Kawawa naman adventure dito. Ni walang laban, except sa price at parts and mechanic availability.

    I would only get an Adventure for business use. But if it's a personal car, Innova definitely.

    Power windows are the only essentials that the Innova J doesn't have. Power door locks are easily added. Black trim can easily be repainted. Steel rims can easily be replaced with alloys.

    What's not on the spec sheets is the Innova's refinement. Better ride, more power (without an increase in consumption), standard safety features, and superior ergonomics make the Innova the runaway winner, even if it's just the base model.

    even GT express units are starting to favor the innova. dumadami na nakikita kong innova "fx". i've even seen a suzuki apv once. hehe

    the advie's reliable and kinda cheap to maintain, but that can only bring it so far.

    To date I've only seen one Innova UV Express unit. Pero kung pang UV Express ang gamit, I would prefer the Urvan over both the Adventure and Innova.

    Innova pa rin unlike ng Adventure paboritong sitahin ng mmda and anti smoke belching coz sa pagiging mausok in the long run. kupad pa nya sa pag overtake mauunahan pa cya ng kia pride.

    I loved my Advie when I and the wife were its passengers. Cheap to maintain, can fit even tight streets, nice visibility, you won't need a horn to ward of pedestrians (kung sa bike e tunog mayaman. kinda sarcastic pero sa palengke useful). But when my family grew, I needed more space, comfort and refinement...dun lumabas shortcomings ng helicopter ko...
