    Anak: dad hindi kinancel ang class ang lakas ng ulan
    Me: dont worry anak we have a
    special car for that puwede mabaha, pwede ma flat pwede mabangga ng lumulutang ng troso. So lika na hatid na kita. Its my beater car son
    Bro, people who usually buy a 4-5M car probably has multiple cars already on their stable. So buying 3 additiinal cars if you already have 2 or more already, does not make sense unless you want a vehicle for every member or for every occasion.

    You know where I see lots of LCs at a given time in the metro. In saturday night bgc. Last night i think I saw more than 12 LC200s and more or less the same Number for the Prado.
    With the Prado i am not sure if some, i am seeing the same car coz most are brand new whites.

    Where I saw, parking entrance of Shangrila, in parking area of Fort Strip, in multilevel high street parking lot, in Forbes town are where there is night life like Frand and Dean and in Mercato lol, for a Land Cruiser natatawa ako nakikipag cat and mousw game sa bgc motorcycle police, para lang makkakain sa mercato ng ayaw mag bayad ng parking

    Why i do that, i like measuring our country,s wealth that way, and sabi ko sa inyo most of the LCS are hanging out in night life fort strip, forbes town and shangrila hotel .

    Why i covered lots of places, i walk around entire BGC and sometimes, when Im lazy I also drive around. HereÂ’s what i noticed with some LC owners, they wouldl line up sa isang building driveway then pasok sila, then for no reason lalabas sa kabila na wala naman In
    In high street, sometimes me and wife eat sa Halal Guys and sit there sa signage ng high strret, so many LCS going back and forth without really fetching someone. I time it kasi eh if like in the 30 minutes we sit there consuming our halal food umiikot ka pa din, then nag drivd around ka lang without anh really purpose at all. anyways, I do that din na,an with my old explorer coz I rarely use it sa lakas ng gas. BGC saturday is good exercise for my car kasi wala traffic and I burn in the engine


    I figure since sabi mo nga most LC owners have other cars, maybe they just do that parang lang mapatakbo LCs nila hihi.

    there are more LC's now on the road than before. gone are the days that only politicians and prominent individuals are able to buy. maybe effect ng train law or the economy is improving kaya people can afford to own one na. to some, the price might suit their pocket instead of buying an EU brand na twice or more the price of an LC. i currently have five cars in the garage, it serve the purpose naman but minsan napapaisip ako, why not sell the 3 and get an LC instead, pang game ender na. i mentioned the idea to the wife and kids while we are on the road, mabilis pa sa patakbo ko sagot yes yes yes[emoji23]

    LC is goody buy if it has same features as the newly launched expedition. yun lang automatic stepboards can help to maintain the car’s tidyness and shinyness. Kasi most people who own big cars rarely clean their cars on their own, sa carwash naman they dont thoroughly clean the stepboards, as a result even if the LC is shiny new, the stepboards are dirty or namumuti ang plastic. So mukang ordinary suv pa din at a glance,

    Sana man lang salpakan nila ng ganun.

    Thats why I love my Santa fe, coz it doest have stepboards. It can maintain the shiny look without the eyesore that is a dirrty stepboard. and isa pa problema sa LC wh yun roofrail yun baligtad na hawakan ng pasahero sa loob ng jeep. most lcs have these black plastics na namumuti , still even though the lc owners think they have expensive cars, it still look as common as the PPvs with dirty stepboards and 1990s era plastic roofrails

    so many have that same argument, this is gonna be my last car, this gonna be my retirement car. Ill never buy another car in 20 years If I get s chance to own a LC now,

    But that is not our human nature, we are designed not be satisfied or settle down. Of ten times we took for granted what we have as compared to what we dont have, its called the missing tile syndrome.

    so if you already have 5 cars and then your family quickly agrees to sell the 3 to get 1 prestigious car, thats only becuase the thought of something new sounds better, refreshing, a fresh start.

    Re the Terra, correct me if I'm wrong as I just back read some posts, at stock, it has the lowest flood wading depth around 450mm if I am not mistaken. I think even the Toyota Rush technically beats it rated at 600mm. But again this is at stock.

    But i get the point of minicar and I personally agree of the need for a beater car that can handle floods. But I wouldn't really personally recommend to use a "new" car for it. It should have aged up in the family stable for it to be a practical choice. My two cents.

    But liked the dialogue in the end of the presentation of each "type" of vehicle. hehe! =)

    To the thread starter, aside from the exclusive SUVs you mentioned, you might want to consider smaller but more premium SUVs near that price range.

    Options are the Lexus RX350, Land Rover Discovery Sport, Porsche Macan (I think may model less than 5M), VW Touareg, Jeep Grand Cherokee

    If you already have other cars, you can consider the abovr options

    Sirs/Madame..

    Revive ko lang ko po itong thread na ito...

    Semi OT at Main Topic ang thread...

    Due to pandemic.. nagkaroon ng halt, decided na kami ng ermats ko na camry ang kukunin (sedan at maluwag at mababa)

    Instead, yung pang DP ng sasakyan, investment for laundry shop.. para kumita at maging practical at lumago yung investment. + nakatulong pa sa mga employees ng ermats ko, for a win-win solution..

    Hindi rin biro ang gastos lalo nung time ng ECQ. labas lahat ng pera, + yung nagastos pa sa rapid at swab test, inabot ng 100K, (family at employee) pero salamat kahit paano, negative lahat ng result..


    Main topic..


    2021, hmm?? Since, turning senior na ang ermats (birthday gift).. Ok ba ang Ford Expedition?

    LC200 ang wishlist talaga... sa ngayon panahon, hindi priority bumili ng magarang sasakyan, mas priority ang business income, emergency funds lalo sa medical, at salary ng employee.. lalo at pandemic at maraming negosyante na bankrupt..

    Scouting lang ako, marami akong natutunan dito sa forums na ito since high-school.. dami kong natutunan dito sa forums na ito...

    Thank you..

    Sa panahong ngayon, mas maganda hindi sasakyan ang regalo mo. Hindi pa safe lumabas. Ü
    Pero yes, maganda ang Ford Expedition, nagustuhan ko rin reviews nya. Or kung gusto mo, try mo yun mga binebenta na Korean luxury van na may Lazyboy sa loob ng Pitstop Motors or his competitor around qc. Forgot the name.
    Hyundai Palisade or the Hyundai Genisis is nice also.
    Check facebook.. Nandun sila.

    This is a wise plan for the foreseeable future. Vaccine is a year away at best.

    If you have the extra money, then spoil yourself with an Expedition. An Escalade would be the close comparison for a land yacht like the Expedition.

    If you want something cheaper, then opt for the Nissan Patrol Royale. It is the same vehicle as the USDM Nissan Armada. However, the Expedition offers more interior space than the Armada/Patrol Royale.

    If you want something proven reliable, then get a Land Cruiser (LC200).

    If I had the money, I'd also wait for the LC300.

    Kung ako lang, oks na ako sa Explorer. It has the same engine as the Expedition but on a smaller body. It is also easier to handle within the narrower streets.
