Planning To Buy But Can't Decide Which One (StaFe/Sportage/Montero/Fortuner)

**shadow3616931** · November 9th, 2010 11:46 AM

2 years ko na gamit fort ko la naman nag rereklamo sa mga pasahero ko we even went to SAGADA 6 passengers, 3 adults (150lb each more or less) 1 teen (slim), 2 toddlers (10 and 3 yrs old puro slim din) and few travelling bags. Yung 1 adult (maid) nasa 3rd row, take note winding and rough road yun, hindi naman na suka alam ko na lula sya sa dinaanan namin.

Yung fortuner, montero, everest di nagkakalayo tagtag nyan kasi differential type ang rear wheel not like santafe 4 wheel independent suspension yan the same with crossovers like CRV, Xtrail, CX7, tucson, etc., crossover yan yung mga na kotse na tinaas at ginawang 4x4

i and my wife were passengers then and we both felt the same pagkakahilo... we also have a montero and on the same route (as passengers also) we never felt the dizziness we felt sa fortuner... but for the everest, my wife swears not to ride that SUV ANYMORE... HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE

Bakit naman sir? Hindi naman matagtag yung new model ng everest ngayon, o hindi ko lang ramdam kasi ako lagi nagdadrive kapag nakasakay ako? Hehe.

Baka nasa driver yan, if the driver has heavy foot on gas and brake pedals yung nasusubsob ka and mahilig mag swerve mahihilo ka talaga.

Pag truck based, 7 seater, RWD SUV matagtag talaga di gaya ng FWD crossover 4 wheel independent suspension kasi yan then yung iba multi-link suspension pa.

Let's not over rate this tagtag issue. We all don't have the same ride tolerance. Alang sinabi ang Fort sa tagtag ng ride ko but I dont complain about it kasi kaya naman.

After reading the posts,better for TS to testdrive all your options. Im sure meron yan. Then tell us what you think and your choice.

Checked out the 3 vehicles today...

Wala nang 7 seater Sorento!!! Waah!! Puro 5 seater lang avilable, no wor dkelan dadating ang 7 seater. Yung SA nga 5 seater ang pinipilit sakin...

Ganda ng loob ng Sta Fe, I'm very impressed. Ayaw lang ng wife ko exterior looks, parang pang matanda daw, haha.

Montero na realize ko lang now ang sikip pala...

+1 to this. Hindi ko ginagamit yung 3rd row seats. Pang-matanda ang dating.

Eh hindi naman kasi sinabi na pang offroad ang Santa Fe.

Ang Expedition ba ay pang Off Road din? sa laki nun tingnan lang natin.

Sa highway magkaka-alaman. Hindi aabot yang D-4D sa R-eVGT. Diba OB

option for 7 seats is needed, especially Daddy na ko... Dyan na si bulilit, pati si misis, pati si yaya, tapos minsan kasama pa si biyenan...

I also sat in the 3rd row of the Sta Fe, kasama si wifey, one thing I can say, mas maluwag at comfortable ang 3rd row seats ng Sta Fe over Montero.

Si misis talagang Montero or Sorento ang type, pero mag test drive kami ng Sta Fe next week to see how it compares to Montero.

Note: nakakita si misis ng white 2010 Sta Fe, maganda rin daw siya pag white, haha. Konting convincing na lang...
