    I'd go with the CR-V... though alam ko yung 1998 mas luma yung engine kesa yung 1999-2000 na models.

    Though malayo pa ang Aug to scout for a car... for sure medyo mag drop pa yung prices by around July.

    the 1st generation crv has two engines, the b20 and the b20z. latter has a flat intake, former has a tall "giraffe" style intake. you'll know when you open the hood...old engine b20 has a garish looking tall intake. b20z has 20+ additional hp and is generally an upgraded version...iba yung pistons, ect ect..

    crvs are very very reliable. i own one, hehe. get this na lang kung issue sa inyo yung size and fuel economy. if not, get the patrol...power and massive size will ensure the safety of you and your family. and angas pa. tapos pwede mo pa dalhin sa taas ng bundok...

    The later model GEN I CRV's benefitted from increased horsepower. Later model GEN I's also have an O/D OFF switch on the end of the gear lever (none on earlier models).

    The Frontier and Adventure suspensions are quite stiff owing to their truck ancestry.

    The Patrol and Pajero are also trucks, but are more civilized than the Frontier or Adventure. Though you will never forget that you are still riding a truck.

    If meron ka ma kuha CRV 2000 or late 99 less than 500k kunin mo na yun. Difference ng dalawa is the engine(+20HP), door handles(chrome), meron overdrive yung matic, stereo colored bumpers. I think mas comfortable yung misis mo dito compared sa other choices mo.
