    MS advantage
    1. Ride height
    2. Power and torque
    3. Un-ending mods, iwas umay.
    4. More reliable differentials. (personal experience)
    5. High rating in speed and go anywhere category.
    6. All around, pang pamilya, pang chicks, pang sports pang adventure.

    Innova Advantage
    1. Matipid maintenance, kahit same price sa MS GLX, mas maraming kang ritual sa pag car wash and wax pag MS.
    2. Cabin space
    3. FC
    4. Magaan steering, mas driveable, less body roll.
    5. Suited more for family use.

    I dunno but I see office vouchers for the Monty Sport service regularly hitting 10k or more. Innova, more or less. Kung sa labas pa magpaservice you can bring it down more.

    First 1k km PMS ng Montero ko is 6,300 on FS oil. As per my SA nasa 3k plus na lang daw sa 5k km PMS since top up and change oil filter na lang. Every 20k yata yung mabigat na PMS.

    We have an Innova G. No problem so far. I like it better than my in-laws' fortuner.

    Isuzu's toughness is proven imo. Sobrang ingay lang. In case yan kunin mo, gamitan mo na lang ng 2t oil or mod mo na lpg o water injection. Meron ata positive effect yun sa emission.

    Mas maganda FC ng innova, sa city driving (innoG- 8-11 km/l; MS -6-8 km/l), pero sa mga long drive, halos parehas lang (10-13 km/l).Kung bagong innova bibilhin mo, mas maganda sigurado FC, 4.5yrs old na innova ko, beater car pang palengke etc.

    Ang gauge ko, budget ko sa fuel ng innova is P2t every month, sa MS (SE A/T) ay P3.5t every month. 10-25 km daily use (excluding road trips).

    Innova, mas matipid ngayon ang PMS kasi sa labas na ng casa ang PMS (out of warranty na)-
    Nasa P2t pinaka mahal na ginagastos ko every 5tkm normal PMS (mineral oil).
    You have to ask new owners ng innova para sa current cost ng PMS sa casa.

    MS naman, nasa P7t-12k kada 5tkm normal PMS (Turbo XP) , Mitsu-Marilao (warranty pa), halos parehas sya ng normal PMS ng GS VGT (Hyundai-Balintawak)

    Add-on, insurance, mas mahal insurance ng MS kaysa sa Innova especailly kung may AOG.
    Extra cost of ownership, - mas madaling ma over spend sa MS dahil sa dami ng possible at tempting aftermarket mods compared sa innova. (sticker lang yata na "Baby On Board" ng nagastos kong aftermarket mods sa innova ko, ha ha ha)

    Get the Innova, it's well worth it

    Wait a little more for the new Innova, and you'll get the electronic steering equipped car - no need for steering fluid maintenance and it eliminates engine load- no more power steering pump.

    Toyota is slowly phasing out the fluid type power steering, this is now the trend in their new models starting now with the new 86, RAV4 and VIOS, then the new ALTIS and CAMRY and in few months the new INNOVA

    Last the longest and fuel efficient? Isuzu Crosswind! There are those with Crosswind's crossing the 300tkms mark and still going strong. Very practical car to have, if you don't mind the sluggish performance, noisy and smoky engine, and jittery ride that is.

    For something more modern, I'd go with the Montero. I find the 1.198M price tag very competitive indeed, especially since it is slugging it out with not just base variant SUVs but also MPVs as well.

    In contrast, buy now! Avoid electronic steering, dami problems nyan! And pag nasunog motor nyan wala na, babangga ka na. Good bye cruel world na!

    Mas madali pa rin maintain fluid steering. Bearing lang katapat mo sa electronic steering.
