    occassionalmuse din sigur by me. i bet that the odomoter of her vehicle would not even reach 30k in three years(retired na kasi siya, gym sa bgc, every two weeks lang ang pinupuntahan niya)


    im not a fan of changing anything except consumables sa mga auto as much as possible i stick to stock even our monty never had an egr blanking hence changing tires that would require me to buy a new set of rims is out of the option.

    IMO sayang lang kasi ang extra horses if you're not going to use it. Around 400k savings yon. Mas maselan din sa oil change intervals ang Turbo. The Premium has most of the toys you need already like the sunroof and big rims.

    Try getting the dimensions of her current MPV and compare them against your options. Readily available naman ang measurements online. That's what I did when I was shopping for a car kasi medyo limited din ang parking space namin sa bahay.

    How about the Volkswagen Tiguan or Touran (MPV)?

    the touran at 1.6 million only has the fwd- hirap umakyat ang fwd- yung awd nila at that price id rather buy another explorer- di nga kasya sa garage- saw this before being displayed in atc

    by the way we tested a 2014 fwd sta fe(a friends) to climb into our garage(rain simulated by a garden hose) di nakaakyat- sabi kasi niya na malakas torque ng sta. fe niya- that's true but still it wont climb our parking garage with grip tile... iba talaga rwd

    as for the tiguan- awd already cost 2.4 something, not that worth it since the japanese, koreans and americans already have most of the feature for a much lesser price and more(auto breaking/adaptive breaking), if we want to waste money we wont buy a tiguan, rather buy an evoque.

    -may nagpunta na xtrail sa bahay courtesy of nissan - saktong sakto- you can only open one side of the door half way, just enough for a passenger to egress.

    Wouldn't it be cheaper in the long run to remedy the road / path to garage so normal cars can traverse to garage?

    Subaru Forester it is then since it has a capable 4WD. Prefer the Mazda CX-5 though.

    *jhon m thanks for the video hehehehehe leaning to subaru due to the video- ganyan nangyayari sa traverse namin na ltz ang panget pa pag dumulas pababa- kung engot ang driver(ako yun paminsan minsan) tatama sa side wall(kaya yung side wall may mga pinutol na tires and rubber-just in case)

    i just hope they included nissan

    OT: Yep mabait ang Nissan in terms of test drives. Nakwento kasi namin na major concern din namin ang space ng garahe. They readily offered to request for a unit para ma-fit. Subaru and Mazda ganto rin. As long as available ang unit and approved ng manager pwede. No reservation fee required
