Toyota Revo '01 or Mitsubishi Adventure '02

oh ok good thing you told me cuz we're planning to buy the fuel saver pa naman kaagad in case matuloy ung sa revo. Pero 6-8km/L? wow malakas pala parang expedition. Ano pde gawin dun para maging matipid sa gas? How bout additives?

There's no magic bullet for fuel consumption. No bolt on devices or fuel/oil additives will improve your fuel consumption. At best they do nothing, worst case they can do damage.

If you're that concerned about fuel consumption, get the Adventure. But if you don't drive a lot or don't plan to keep the car for a long time, the Revo would probably be better because it's cheaper.

If you do get the Revo, first thing to remember is that it's NOT a car. First gear is there to get you moving. I know lots of people with Revos drive theirs like their cars and the engine revs like crazy, that's not how the Revo's engine is tuned.

ganyan talaga pag gas na AUV. ang exped ata higher pa ang consuption 5-6 km/l, kung gagamitin mo araw araw tapos hindi puno, mejo lugi ka nga sa gas. pero kung weekend / family trip car. ok na din since ang dami mo masasakay.

tip lang.. pag di alam kung ano problema ng papeles, wag mo na bilin. baka magsisi ka lang. dami pa naman jang available..

this is true.. usually pag humps or corners, akyatan, naka segunda ka pa rin. 1st gear pag galing lang sa total stop.

Ang alam ko sa Revo, 7-9km/l ang highway tapos 4-6km/l lang ang all city driving.

so it's guzzles more than I thought, the approximation I have given is already in City driving conditions...

Ang alam ko sa Revo, 7-9km/l ang highway tapos 4-6km/l lang ang all city driving.

For the record, our Revo gets more than 10km/L on the highway. 1.8 Gas Manual. Our best was 11.9km/L, highway, fully loaded. We normally get 8, mixed traffic/highway.

Go for the Revo but get a diesel one.

Please help help help! I'll be buying either tom kasi rush na and till tomorrow lang daw ung price since mababa na daw.

Take your time, Ron. Are you buying from a used car dealer? Are they the ones pressuring you to choose asap?

we decided na ung revo nlng e since makinis pa. Malakas ba tlga sa gas?

I recall several threads discussing concerns on the gas consumption of the 1.8 Revo.

310,000 ba talaga presyo ng Revo SR? Alam ko hindi bababa ng 400K yan.

[crazystud17]

we bought the revo na and yep 310k lang siya. ganda pa nga e panalo kasi hinding hindi laspag pati interior sobrang linis. mejo may mga gasgas lang sa side mirror, sa likod, saka sa gilid pero all barely noticeable. Taga-Urdaneta Vilage naman may-ari e and foreigner. Hayyy March na nga ang registration kaya hanggat hindi natatransfer sa pangalan ko, may kaba pa rin kahit naibigay na sa akin lahat ng papers including the OR's from the first owner down the invoice of the car from Toyota.

I wish and I pray na wala sana maging problema...
