Yup, I agree on the Ford Explorer. Why not try test driving the SsangYong Rexton II? I thing it's also smooth riding vehicle but the resale would be compromised. Don't expect good resale on Korean vehicles since they are still climbing for reputation about reliability. A Subaru Legacy might also win your heart because you can get a very good drive and a very very reliable car, but again, it's a new brand in the Philippines making the resale not that high.
If you want resale... Go Honda! Second to that, Toyota.
