    Shopping for an SUV. Currently looking at these 2. Priorities are

    • Reliable and cheap to maintain
    • Good 2nd row space and passable 3rd row. Benchmark is 1st gen fortuner
    • good wading capability
    • I don't need good offroad capabilities. Will mostly use in metro manila


    Initially the Terra was included but Im a bit hesitant since the terra doesn't seem to have parts readily available. I just did a quick search in Lazada.

    Anyway. Im hesitant on the mu-x since next gen will be released soon(any news when?) and current gen is not heavily discounted.

    Reliable and cheap to maintain
    - Parehas check
    - Since mas madaming Fortuner,
    Mas madali ang makakita ng body parts

    Good 2nd row space and passable 3rd row. Benchmark is 1st gen fortuner
    - Parehas check
    - Lamang ang MU-X sa space sa 2nd row
    Okay din sana 3rd row kaso hindi nag slide
    ang 2nd row para sa space

    Good wading capability
    - Parehas check, basta PPV check. hehe.

    Mas maganda exterior at interior ng Fortuner.

    Okay MU-X kung cheaper 1.9 models sa 1.5M/1.35M(bare/base).

    I suggest to wait po for the upcoming all-new mux if hindi naman nagmamadali. By mid 2021 daw ilalabas ng ipc kung di ako nagkakamali.

    Laki ng pinagbago, lalo na sa loob. Elegante na, di tulad ng utilitarian na outgoing model.

    Kaso masyadong hawig ung harap sa mga mazda cuvs.. Sana niretain nlng nila ang front end ng d-max rito.

    Kung 2021 MU-X, parang mas okay exterior ng Fortuner.

    If urgent na, edi sa forty na kayo.

    Naglabas sila ng bagong variants sa facelift eh, yung 2.8 q at 2.8 ltd. Sa wakas may 2.8 na 4x2 na. Panalong panalo yung looks at features ng q kung di mo naman kailangan ang 4x4.

    Advantage din ng forty ay 80 ltrs ang tank capacity neto laban sa 65 ltrs ng mu-x at alam ko niretune nila ang suspension para hindi na kasing harsh ng mga naunang batch.

    ... you are using lazada as your standard for parts availability...???

    errr... are the intended passengers strong-of-knee enough to climb onto your vehicle?
    heh heh.

    Between the 2, MUX. But if kasama yung Terra, Terra ulit. Engine parts are the same with Navara so parts are really not a problem. Also consider cost of ownership (PMS) and location of dealership...
