    Imagine yourself driving a Innova, tapos meron tumabi sayong montero, tatawanan mo ba sha or hihinga ka ng malalim?
    I still drive a 20 year old, bare-bones Sentra and i don't give a damn about the Monty next to me in traffic unless he's acting like a prick and cuts me off as he pleases... (just as one did to me yesterday afternoon). :D

    My main gripe with the current Monty Sport GLS is that the AC blower is quite weak; Nahihirapan ipalamig yung vehicle in the midday summer sun as compared to the Innova. I first thought it was with particular to the unit i was using but i confirmed it with my boss who had a similar vehicle (these two Monty Sports were purchased and delivered from the same dealer at the same time). One main thing that would swing me to a Monty Sport over the Innova G (which is very, very practical already) is mainly the better crash ratings of the MS versus the Toyota IMVs.

    Montero na di na pinag iisipan yan. Mitsubishi naman kaya madali rin pyesa.

    The Innova is actually a very tough car. Its basically the shell of a minivan on the underpinnings of a truck and so uses a traditional ladder frame chassis. With the right tires it will be able to go pretty much any where the Montero can go. Flood wading capability is also very good.

    So the differences really only lie on the looks, tires and higher horse engine.

    Agree, innova is very tough, my past innova never had squeeks inside and out for 4 1/2 yrs before disposing it. My bayaws 11/2 yrs glx monty already has irritating squeaks s dashboard. Also, at that price range, D4D AT n katapat ng glx mt. Kasira ng kamay vibration ng stick shift ng mt monty, para kang kinukuryente lagi. mas pogi monty, mas maluwag innova, ride parang pareho lang. road imperfections are more felt sa steering ng monty prob because of tire size but it becomes tiring after some time. Pareho lang cla maingay, mas malamig aircon ng innova. mas mabilis umarangkada A/T n innova, ramdam mo turbo lag s monty glx. after all this, it really is up to your preference.

    case to case basis i have a few friends that have their innova shocks replaced when their vehicle was not even a year old (city driving only)

    but yes it is tough same with the montero

    yeah lamang nga ang at tranny

    may vibration but sinadya ata ito and it was extensively explained by mitsu- if i remember correctly yung vibration sa steering wheel would let you asses the road surface so you could compensate for it... sa mga hard core of roaders - but the heck kung city driving lang syempre ayaw ko din ng vibrations but in other countries where the montero is exported this car is used for unpaved road- like peru grabe daanan sa kanila talagang gilid ng bundok. dont know kung may innova sa peru uhmm wala!

    budget wise montero since it would last long(pero kung pang matagalan talaga mag isuzu hi lander ka hangang ngayon ilaw lang ang pinapalitan still the same old body at wala ata silang balak palitan pa yung design ng body)

    or antay ka sa all new innova hindi yung current belo injected botox innova
