    Shipping to Cebu would not cost 50T, maybe around 25T-30T. Even with shipping charges, car companies still mark it up.

    Pinaka good buy MU-X compared to the Fortuner (too bare) and Montero (too small).

    MU-X (Too old and the interior is so cheap too plasticky feel ugh!) Fortuner (too bare) and Montero (too small) now thats unbiased.

    Montero pinaka OK dyan sa tatlo basta di lalagpas sa 6footer height mo or ng mga pasahero mo... Pag pamilya kayo ng matatangkad, go for MUX. Labas na sa kin ang fortuner, bare talaga.. Mag everest trend ka na lang kesa fort.. Di naman issue maintenance cost, 8years tapos benta mo na? Baka ala pang 150T kms yan. Change oil lang yan at ATF lang gagawin mo dyan saka brake pad.. Hehehe... Kung OC ka, palit shocks at bushings.. LOL.

    Mu-X o Everest Trend both good options. Tingin ko tatagal din Eve, hindi na rin mahirap pyesa sa dami ng nabebentang Everest at Ranger.

    Was in a similar scenario just a few weeks ago (also from cebu). here are my comments:

    fortuner g - for the price and all that external porma, ang sikip sa loob
    montero gls - good price and space, inclined third row though, PMS ok (coming from another mitsibushi)
    mux lsa - space ok, quite boring to drive, PMS should be cheap

    in addition, we also drove the everest - very car like feel, third row space is excellent, PMS cost should be high though at ford nivel hills (coming from an escape). service experience though is very good

    we eventually went with the everest trend due to the attractive all in dp package and wife's peace of mind with that ford casa (they gave us a loaner escape when ours had to stay with them for a while). happy naman generally with the service (there's piyeza at mandaue if casa abuses prices). discount ok as well, making the trend have more or less the same cost as the fortuner g

    In my case naman, when I started test driving modern SUV's, naging unanimous and decision namin ng wife ko to go for the Montero GLS Premium.

    Appearance. I'd go for the Fortuner. ang ganda ng SUV na to. 2nd is MU-X, 3rd is Montero.

    Power and Torque, Montero mauuna dyan lakas ng hatak at 430 nm 2nd si Fortuner at 400 nm. then 3rd si MU-X at 380 Nm.

    Personally, if i were in your situation i'd get the Fortuner

    Apperance , yes Fortuner.
    Power and Torque, i dont agree, its all on the paper ang mga specs na yan, true power and torque
    is on the road actual driving. MuX owner ako, wala pang Montero, Fortuner or Nissan nakakatalo sa akin sa hilly and curvy rides, except sa Ford Ranger 3.2 iniiwanan ako. Mabilis magpasikot sikot ang Montero sa flat ride city driving kasi maliit at magaan.

    Anong feature ang importanteng kulang sa Fort? reverse cam? MUX vs Outgoing Fort pwede pa magbago isip ko.

    Sa backup camera mapapatawad ko pa. Ang dali bumili at pakabit nyan, sa cdrking lang meron ehh.. LOL. Bitin lang sa presyong kulang kulang 1.5M pesos vs sa specs nya.

    147HP engine(lowest inclass)
    Fabric seats
    Drum brakes
    Manual aircon
    Manual driver seat
    No cruise control
    No back up sensor(for me, mas useful ito kesa cam pero ala pa rin)
    2 airbags only
    No driver assist(no HSA, no Traction, stability and trailer sway control.)
    Open diff panga ata - not 100% sure lang.(Ford and mitsu naka LSD.) Mux not sure too if lsd.
