    diesel, crosswind xt or xti, wag xuv upwards. di sulit : durable engine and fuel efficient. subok ko na, 150,000km and still going strong.
    gas - innova, no contest.

    I got two words for you: test drive. Nothing beats an informed decision based on an actual sortie behind the wheel.

    I own an Adventure myself, but if your nearest Mitsubishi dealer refuses to lend you one of their units, then you can take it off your list of prospects.

    In terms of comfort, design, handling...etc. Innova gets my vote.

    In terms of diesel, I cannot totally recommend the D-4D engine of the Innova bec. nobody is really sure if Toyota solved the earlier problems already.

    Where are you in bicol! Im in saudi, but my home town in Naga. My plan is also to buy either of the two above, except Innova. Based on my research, only mitsubishi is the ligitimate dealer in bicol complete with service center under Caleb Motors in panganiban drive Naga city. Toyota has no dealership in bicol the nearest in Batangas. But Isuzu has a satillite dealership in Legaspi city under Gencar group. And according to them, the request to built a main isuzu dealearship in bicol is already approve somewhere in Naga.

    We should to know this, dahil sa 3years or 100,000Km whichever come first extended warranty. About Quality, durability, fuel effeciency? I dont know! but for Value for money, Im sure 100% Mitsu Adv GLS sport limited edition, almost complete with aminities, except video, leather seat and dashboard aminities (if im not mistaken). Caleb motors offfer me 30K cash discount + 20K financing discount. I should to decide mid of march, kc 1st wk of april pa ang uwi ko. +51K compared to Adventure Super sport, +79K to xwind XTi and +197K to Xwind XUV. So.. where you will go. Sana sa bicol ka na lang bumili para tumaas naman ang sales sa bicol d b? promote natin. For me? nagdadalawang isip na naman ako "To Buy or Not To Buy" nang makita ko sa banko kanina na 48.1 n lang pala ang $. Nagsimula akong mag research around 54 p ang $. Laking bagsak nang $, hindi naman bumaba and AUV tumaas pa nga compare with 2006 price. Baka 2nd hand n lang n Xwind XUV ang mabili ko nito

    Yes Igiboy! I have two contacts there. Can you give me the cell no. of Carlo gen mgr? My brother visit Calebmotors showroom several times. I try also to ask Isuzu Xwind qoutation in Legaspi thru text, but it looks they are not cooperative. Hirap mag text back in my roaming (Nanghihinayang yata sa 1peso charge) until I forced to call him. He promised me to send their qoutation by email including pictures but until now wala pa. I forced my brother to go back in legaspi to take some picture of Xwind XTi.

    Only today I recieved the pictures including their qoutation by mail. And Im shock the mail charged thru EMS internation postal courier written in the stamp 886. Kaya pala ubos kaagap 100 $ padala ko. The most I really shock, when I compared Legaspi quotation to others, nawawala na yung 20K cash discount almost 10% pa ang interest rate sa financing. Ang taas!.

    Now Sir Igiboy! Tell me how we can promote car dealer in Bicol. Now, hands up na ako sa Isuzu. To be honest, XUV & Sportivo is my 2nd choice (Fortuner is the 1st, but no dealer in Bicol), but the XTi pangit! after analysing the picture. Payat na payat ang layo sa XUV. I concentrating again in Adventure SS or GLS. If my brother failed to accept the 2nd hand car in Manila from trusted friend as advice by ARVIC, GUIDO & NIKY. I will close the deal in Adventure. Thanks for reading my post....

07 Mitsubishi Adventure or 07 Toyota Innova or 07 Isuzu Crosswind
