Like I said in previous threads, unless you have a use for the bed, don't get a pickup.
Unnecessary length, unnecessary turning radius, no trunk, unnecessary bumpy ride.
Di ako kukuha ng pickup uli kung mostly metro driving lang. Sobrang mas maginhawa magdrive ng sedan or CUV, kahit nga pickup based SUV mas ok kasi at least softer ride, smaller turning radius, easy to park.
I don't like the Montero because of the floaty ride, but it's very practical if you have a family and want something that's basically a jack of all trades.
Personally I'd get an ASX or Mz3 2.0, kung talagang bawal magdagdag. Kung pwede, CX5 na.
