* Starex_Gold: can't wait to get my hands on my MS on tuesday hahaha

i agree with all the things you posted, sobrang ingay nga ng engine ng fort... i had my fort for about a month less than 1K odo, until i noticed the factory defect sa rear door, had it fixed pero was dissatisfied with it so traded it nalang.

2nd week of use ko sa fort, dinala ko cya sa TOPS in cebu (very steep roads), was really curious about its power instead of noticing power i noticed the makapal na gray usok sa likod, a few days later mas nagiging darker na hahaha good thing i traded it after a month only to find out sobrang dami problema dito, sa malaysia forums, mga french even indians sa d4d engines try to google problems with d4d engines ang dami...

WTH.

you know, sometimes, we should look on the car, not the brand. kasi kung ang brand titignan, jan nagsisimula ang mga problems eh.

For me, sa MS ako. Sa price, mas mura siya kaysa sa fort. Yung lower variant ng MS ay almost same features sa highest variant ng fort and mas cheaper pa. Sa suspension, no contest ang Fort. Di ko kayang tumagal sa 3rd row ng fort kasi nakakahilo. Sa engine, mas proven ang 4m41 kasi wala pang major problems na nakikita (wala pa namang sticky thread tulad ng D-4D problems).

Sa porma lang lamang ng konti ang Fort, maganda rin sa paningin ko ang MS (mukhang macho version ng lumang Montero because of the curves).

agree.

thats very true. I bought the fort out of curiousity din kc eh kc nga matibay daw toyota, etc.. it was my first and last toyota

before the fort been using my dads old pajero...

after using the fort for a while... noticed their difference and the fort was way behind a mile..
