Now for the deal breaker and for you to help me to decide, I just wanna ask, in your own opinion or experiences which one is built tougher and would be much cheaper to maintain (cheaper PMS and Spare Parts), btw, i'm planning to keep the vehicle as long as it would run, say maybe 10 years or more. TIA for your replies!
