July 10th, 2012 08:57 PM #1hi everybody!
would like to ask your opinions and comments about our plan to buy a new diesel suv or van. the said vehicle will be used mostly within metro manila only and sometimes, once or twice a month out of town trips. we're choosing between the following with a price range between 1.7m to 1.8m.
suv
- toyota fortuner
- mitsubishi montero
- kia sorento
- hyundai santa fe
- isuzu altera
van
- toyota hi-ace super grandia
- hyundai grand starex crdi vgt
if you can site a brief pros and cons, would appreciate it so much.
thanks in advance!

8 adults and 2 kids would never be comfortable on a 7 seater suv unless half of the adults are midgets. go for the starex which will sit all your passengers comfortably with some luggage space and the ride is much better than a montero, fortuner, isuzu and hiace.

check mo na lang ang thread "hyundai starex gen 4". di ka magsisi sa grand starex. powerful engine, good car-like ride. i can drive this van the whole day and not get tired. not like your other choices (fortuner, alterra, hi ace) na matagtag ang ride.

July 10th, 2012 10:09 PM #8exclude the SUV. i prefer starex. but i think hiace is more fuel efficient? correct me if im wrong. and if you're planning to keep it for 10+ years, hiace will be better

6+1 and 8+2,- then SUV is no good for you.
Van ka nga bro.
Test drive ka ng Hi-Ace and Grand Starex and decide which is the better one for your requirements.

July 10th, 2012 11:01 PM #10thanks to everybody.
question. is the starex can also be our everyday vehicle? isn't to large? or even it is huge, very light to drive.
One dude told me it was Li-Ion. Another dude corrected him. AFAIK the Zenix gets the Li-Ion hence...
