hah!
sa haba haba ng prusesyon...

and i think all buyers should first do their maths. they should not be blinded by zero this and zero that, and instead look for the hidden figures.
i always make it a game of sorts, to myself, "ok, so they removed this amount.. where did they hide it?"
and i remember the adage, "the bigger the down payment, the smaller the headache afterward".

That's why I always choose 50% down balance 1 or 2 years to pay. Pag 20% down 5 years to pay halos naka bili ka na ng dalawa.

Nagbago na naman desisyon ko sa Ecosport, nakausap ko friend ko na nakabili ng eco 2 years ago ganon parin daw a/t transmission nag dradrag daw. Yung kay Amy Perez kelan lang nabili nag va vibrate daw

By drag and vibration, what do you mean?

If you're referring to the jerkiness of the Ecosport from a standstill, well hindi yan defect, ganyan talaga ang DCT ng Ford.

Kung close kayo nung friend mo, try mo idrive para malaman mo kung ano talaga sinasabi niya.

Ford's DCT has the characteristic clankiness nature in bumper to bumper traffic. You have to learn to modulate gas input (firm press when needed) the same way as driving an MT vehicle. If you're driving it like a traditional AT or CVT, you'll most likely experience the "kadyot-kadyot".

Even VW's DSG, still a DCT, acts the same way on low crawling traffic.

Yun ang text nya e nag dra-drag daw at hindi raw na perfect ng ford ang automatic transmission, sabi yung manual daw ok. Hindi kami close gano.

Yung kay Amy Perez nag vi-vibrate naman daw so parang same sila ibig sabihin nag je-jerk.

Well I'm planning to test drive yung mismong unit na kukunin ko before ko bilin kung papayag ang ford otherwise convince ko si mrs na mag accent kaso di nya talaga korsonada ang sabi pag yun binili ko di raw nya dra-draybin yung Picanto parin gagamitin nya kaya masasayang lang daw

Malabo yun, sir. Kaya mayrun sila test drive units for the purpose of customers trying out their cars. Puwede mo naman test yung unit alloted for you pero dapat sure mo ng kunin.

That was the case with me back in 2014. We wanted to get the Focus 1.6L but there were no units available for test drive. Ford Libis told us I can take test-drive the unit alloted for me. I told them NO so they told me they have an available Fiesta Ecoboost model for test drive. I was impressed so I took home the Fiesta Ecoboost.

yung brother ko may fiesta na 6PS, pinalitan ng ford ang transmission on the 3rd year. kaso pag dinadrive ko ramdam talaga ang jerk lalo na from stand still. hinde ko gusto dahil kailangan mo talagang alalayan kung hinde parang lalong masisira. maliban dito ok sana ang ford, gustong gusto ko ang sound system nila.

[jut703]

All DCT Fords I've driven (Fiesta, Focus, Ecosport) have inherently jerky transmissions. Ikaw talaga magaadjust. Kung ayaw mo, wag ka mag-Ford. The DCT just isn't smooth enough for stop and go traffic.

Personally it's something I can live with, considering there are very few other options that have the same value proposition as the Ecosport (affordable, high ground clearance, decent specs).

Only real contender is the Juke and even that's still quite expensive compared to the midrange Ecosport Trend.

Nag test drive kmi ng wife ko ng ecosport titanium AT at Ford Alabang a few weeks ago. Ayos naman yung transmission. Di lang na test sa stop and go traffic. Maganda siguro itest ito sa edsa. In the end we just found the rear seats of the eco a bit uncomfortable so nawala na sya sa choices namin. Medyo maliit na bagay pero may kids kase to consider.

[fulcrum325]

Juke is almost at your range. Hassle nga lang ang pila till now. Jazz V is also a good choice.

There's nothing to "fix" because nothing's wrong with the DCT - that's really how it is. The only real "fix" is if they change from a DCT to a regular torque converter AT.

BRV has no definite launch date locally yet. How urgently do you need the car anyway?

Would you know if Hyundai's DCT behave the same way? Re: Accent Hatch 7AT-DCT

Thanks

Not so urgent she still has her car, haven't been disposed yet.

[crosswind]

Since you didnt mention the preferred transmission.
This car has all of your criteria The Mitsubishi Adventure SuperSport just kidding the Ecosport fits the bill perfectly
