HiAce or MB100 AND MB100 or Urvan Escapade?

[yebo]

yun nga din naisip ko e, laspag na mga grace/h100 na nakita ko. 40k lang ba surplus na 4d56? tdic? c/w transmission?

[OTEP]

Hindi sasara yung upuan kapag 4d56 ng Pajero ilalagay mo unless ire-route mo ang intercooler. Top mount kasi. Kaya naman tumakbo ng Grace sa non-turbo 4d56. Mga 70-80bhp yun depending on model year.

Yung Besta 2.2 ko 72 bhp lang pero walang problema sa akyatan. Magaan lang kasi. Para kong nakasakay sa lata ng 555. hehehe. Nalulukot pa yung body dahil sa road stress.

I've been in the Rent a van for quite some time too. As per my experience, malakas sa rentahan ang Starex. Sosyal kasi ang dating and malakas ang A/C. As in may mga nag rerent na naka specify sa isip nila na STAREX ang rerentahin nila because of the sosi feeling. Sumunod na dun yung Nissan Urvan at Toyota Hi-Ace.

L300 van ang gamit ko dati. Isa lang ang masasabi ko, sumakit ulo ko sa kasusubok magpalamig ng A/C.

Pasintabi po sa mga naka JDM na van pero for rent a van purposes, hindi ako bibili ng JDM vans. Alam na natin na converted ang mga ito, that means "some" conversions are not properly done which means delikado dahil steering are pinag uusapan dito. nother "con" ng JDM ay yung balitad na sliding door for passenger which is dangerous lalo na kung may pasahero kang batang makulit (believe me, dami kong naging ganung pasahero).

Pag maganda sasakyan mo, meron kumukontrata sayo ng matagalan. Sa experience ko, there was a time na rent yung van ko for 1 week. Everyday ako bumabyahe from Manila/Dagupan vice versa. ABS-CBN ang nag rent sakin at artista ang pasahero ko. One of them is Nikki Valdez.

For me, masarap ang business na rent a van, kumukita ka na, nakakapasyal ka pa.

thats a pretty good insight.

niwde, ano yan? mb100?

we're still studying the idea kasi, no rush but it's looking more like 75% decided na kami. (i haven't posted it here in the forum yet, we had another baby last march 25! it's a girl! growing family so hindi na kami kasya sa sedan haha!) gusto lang namin ng family van then rent it out on the side since di naman namin gagamitin everyday. more like a twice-a-month family vehicle for us so instead of having it in the garage 28 days out of 30 e di make it earn on the side. kaya nga under consideration din ang new starex. but if i can get a comparatively good 2nd hand then that will be the first choice (kuripot ang lolo nyo!). my wife wants the new starex (she does not know what to do with my 58% salary increase :D given last month kasi! women!)

[OTEP]

Starex is a good choice din naman. Though the 12 seater version is a bit cramped and has leaf springs instead of the 9 seater's coil springs.

[yebo]

thanks kupaloids! so starex pala ang sosi. sosi ba ako? malayo sa mukha pero pwede naman i-super dark tint ehehehe! looking more like my misis will win the decision ah!

[niwde11]

yup MB100. but if i were you, i'll get a starex(older one, di ko type itsura nung bago). PM me lang kung decided ka na and i'll give you the number nung agent. siraniko ka naman kaya tyak magaling ka kumilatis ng mura.

[yebo]

doc otep, true walang electronics ang mb100? you mean i can fix it myself?!!! hmmmm! this is getting to be a more complicated decision every minute!

cge newde11 pm kita. don't expect it this month tho since i don't get back home until end of may.

[OTEP]

Non-electronic ang MB100. Descendant siya ng engine sa '77 300D ko.

[oldblue]

yun kapitbahay namin may rent-a-van. if I can remember correctly, 2 nissan estate yun nakaparada sa kalye namin mga 2 years ago. ngaun 4 apat na same model (all bnew). my neighbor is also in the taxi business, madami sya toyota corollas pero pagdating sa van puro Nissan. siguro it's really reliable.

my dad's company rents out his vans from time to time, for transporting employees anywhere sa Luzon.

[kupaloids]

thanks kupaloids! so starex pala ang sosi. sosi ba ako? malayo sa mukha pero pwede naman i-super dark tint ehehehe! looking more like my misis will win the decision ah!

No prob. Pero dapat bigay mo sakin contact # mo para kaw na ma rent ko pag uwi ko. Dapat may discount. :bwahaha: Joke.

Naka try din ako dati mag drive ng MB100, tama si sir OTEP, max speed is 140Kph, ok din A/C, not sure of prices ng spare parts though. Nagpa drive lang sakin yung may ari e.

Congrats sa bagong baby mo.

[sekiyu]

I'm on my second Starex although I'm not in the car-rental business. Yung una ko 2000 TDI and still going strong. Binili ng bayaw ko. 2004 CRDI ipinalit ko. Lakas ng makina at wala namang problema. Lamig pa ng aircon. Yun lang original na gulong ang medyo na-o-oblong.
58% raise? Wow. Sa oilfield ka ba? Yung TSF rig namin balita ko 100% increase ang hinihingi.

[dfa172001]

nadrive ko na mb100, lakas ng power, roomier, gandang pang van rental, sosi din naman kasi makita pa lang ang badge ng mercedes. ok.

[oldblue]

magkano ba van rental per day ng mga starex? yun sa kapitbahay namin Nissan Urvan pala, 4 identical units. nasa parking ngaun kasi walang pasok pero pag regular work day wala lahat yun. my dad said a company division is renting out the vans at 3,800 per day. 3,800 x 4 = 15,200 a day.

[niky]

Wow... laki nun. I thought it was still around 2500 per day... pero mahal ng parts at diesel ngayon, so malamang market price na sa kanila yun...

[kupaloids]

Iba-iba ang price ng rental. Sa amin nga may grupo pa ng mga STAREX owners na nagpaparent. Standardized nila ang prize kaya wala gulangan sa presyo.

Bulacan to Baguio ko dati is P3,500/day tapos P1,500 every succeeding days, and P1,500 ang Bulacan to NAIA, akin na lahat dun pero that was 4 years ago, sigurado tumaas na rates ngayon. Mas mahal ang rate sa Manila.

para may idea tayo sa presyo ng rentahan ng Van
nakita ko lang sa isang site .
sana makatulong ,

[yebo]

last time nag-rent kasi ako ng van (last year) it was 3000/1st 12 hours + 150/hour in excess of 12 hours, akin pa diesel. then just 2 months ago magre-rent sana ako ulit, tawag ako dun sa dati and 3 others, standard price nila 3500/1st 12 hours, akin ang diesel plus 200/hour overtime. lower daw rates if more than 1 day pero di ko ask. sa baguio nga pala punta namin sana.

[oldblue]

12% Vat included na yan mga rental rates?
