April 25th, 2012 08:28 PM #1I need your valuable inputs as to what would be the best buy that sure value of your money. the choices are as follows:
1. Ford Escape 2.3 XLT
2. Kia Sportage (low end)
3. Hyundai Tucson (low end)
4. Nissan Xtrail 2.0 (not CVT)
I have tight budget and the above-mentioned are considered to be the cheapest amongst SUVs today.

The Escape has no problems. It has the most comfortable ride among the three and it has a torquey and really punchy engine. FC is better compared to the Tucson/Sportage.

April 25th, 2012 11:18 PM #7*Keithdb tama sir they are giving generous discounts. may bank's partnered dealer eh dito sa edsa ford. they offered me 60K discounts but I'm still negotiating if it can be stretched further pang break-even sa ibang prospect brands ko...winowork-out na raw nila..hehesan dealer kaya ung 100K?
Yung recent lang sir tinutukoy ko na escape. wala pa yata yung next gen dito sa pinas at kung meron man for sure hindi kasing baba ng presyo nyan tulad sa ngayong generation...

April 25th, 2012 11:41 PM #8Since the Tucson and Sportage you are referring to come with the 2.0L gas engine, I would suggest against it since it is known for poor fuel consumption. I'd suggest you get the Escape. It is a very solid and comfortable car. Performance and FC are both adequately acceptable. It is also among the few CUVs that are capable off road. We have a 2003 2.0XLT here and a 2010 2.3XLS in Taiwan. No concerns whatsoever with faulty mechanicals, no concern needed for the A/C, you'd be more likely to complain of having a blizzard in your cabin.

April 26th, 2012 10:51 AM #10Wow! Thanks for this great inputs GTi! Those points you gave are what I'm really looking for an SUV. Thought the looks of an escape is really old, the reliability wise and it is there many for years already. I don't want to be swayed by the head turner looks of some suvs but with so-so performance.
