Sasakay kaya yung mga tao (Marikina-Cubao) kung parang style-jeep yung seating orientation nya, pero syempre dapat dual aircon din.

    What do you think guys???
    Pwede rin. I've seen Isuzu D-Max IPV, NHR-PV and Hyundai H100 used for UV Express. I personally find the Hilux less bouncy than the D-Max. You can consider the Mitsubishi L200 FB too. Being Strada based, it is likely even more comfortable.

    added cost lang kasi yun sa owner. cheaper the better. plus ang L300, kalat na kalat na ang piyesa kasi 20+ years na yan e. mas mahaba likod ng L300 kaysa HIlux. lalo na yung exceed

    Agree ako dito. Kaya lang bakit nga wala akong nakikitang UV Express na ganito (N. Aquino Ave.).
    Bagay ngang UV Express kasi parang jeep na may AC.

    Karamihan kasi nakikita ko sa Pque eh ginagawang School Service, hindi naman licensed.

    Most UV Express prefer Nissan Urvan for a high capacity vehicle. Nissan has many promos that support UV Express service. If you don't mind the higher cost, it can also seat upto 21 passengers.

    Cars like the Hilux FX, D-Max IPV and L200 FB are better in the sense that they have a hood. It is much safer in a front end collision. Since the engine is not directly below the seat, you wouldn't be slowly cooked while you are driving for the whole day.

    Ang plan ko kasi guys ay yung byaheng Mariking to Cubao lang, so inaasahan ko na maraming sasakay at bababa all the way. So ayoko ng urvan type na van. Yung L300 FB sana kaso lumang-luma na yung technology niya eh. Notorious ba yung D4D engine sa problems?

    I remember the school bus in my old school was an L300. Laging nasisira ang aircon.

    As for the D4D, not really. As long as you fill it up with clean diesel (preferably Unioil's Euro 4 diesel), change the fluids on time, and cool down the turbo after a whole day of use, there shouldn't be any problem.

    KUNG UV express, better get a van...

    THE BIGGER the better and you got more passengers, double ang kita kada byahe...

    ex. byaheng fairview-ayala 80 pesos per head... CROSSWIND OR ADVIE.. 10X80= Php 800
    URVAN OR HIACE COM. 18X80= Php 1440


    DIFF. OF 640 PESOS kada byahe...

    more or less round trip mileage mo nasa 50 kms.

    when it comes naman sa F.C. ave. F.C. NG van 8km/liter ---- 6.25 liters x 42php/ liter = Php 262 divide by the no. of passengers 18 = Php14.55/passenger
    advie or crosswind 10km/liter ---- 5 liters x 42/liter -=Php 210 10 = 21.0/passenger

    malaman almost double din ang boundary ng van....

    IF i were you get an 18seater van.....

    That's what I noticed too. Mga school service or pang deliver ang nakikita ko na L300 FB or Hilux FX.

    Given their prices and seating capacity, dapat mabenta na yan for UV Express kaso bakit walang bumibili... There must be a reason for it. Ang may alam na sagot diyan ay ung may mga UV Express units.

    Imagine, how much is an Urvan or a Commuter as compared to those, pero mas madami pang Urvan or Commuter kaysa diyan.

    Marikina-cubao, or SSS Village Cubao? kung terminal to terminal, ok yung van pero kung lagare sir na biyahe mas ok yung AUV
    IMHO hanap ka na lang may existing linya na ibang route kase yung Marikina cubao mahina yan sir hindi all the time maraming pasahero hindi mabilis yung ROI, BTW taga saan ba kayo sir?
