tsikot with bad FC or FE

[mikomac]

Any cars will do. this might help other car owners here...

I'll start.

3rd gen Grand vitara.

mas matipd yung 2nd gen GV na 2.0 full time 4x4 sa crv na 1st gen. my sister has both cars.

bad FC compared to what?

my 1.3 XE 99 m/t corolla gets 8-9 city... i think may prob na ito sa carb, or maybe not.

my 1.6 VTi-S gets flat 10s, 11-12 highway... somewhat well maintained.

my 2.0 cefiro V6 gets 5-7, 10 highway... this thing is probably about the same weight as a first generation CRV

i've yet to own a car that will break 10 km/liter in the city, normal medium traffic, summer conditions. and i've owned plenty.

it's a little unfair to generalize cars based on their FC alone. people get scared of buying them. for example, compare a suzuki alto's FC with that of say, a ford expedition with 4x4... layo naman talaga...

pero can you fit 10 people and their luggage in a suzuki alto?
can the alto bring even 5 people to pagudpud in absolute comfort?
can the alto smash through mud, flood, brush and vegetation to take you whenever you wanna go (like rescue your child from the flooded day-care center in downtown manila?)

the idiot will go for the puny little alto because all that matters to him is good FC, even if the expedition, with its power and subsequently higher operating cost (but lower buy-in cost 2nd hand) will always prove to be a better car. why start a thread like this for "reference" anyway? we can't or won't all drive/acquire cars based on FC alone, you know.

just saying, FC is the price we all must pay for the utility value a car can have... a cefiro will consume more than a 96 civic in similar conditions, true... but the civic will have 25% less power, will ride firmer... in short, prove to be an overall inferior car IN TERMS OF RIDING COMFORT (don't flame me civic boys! i was once like you myself! hahaha).

not really bad FC, pero i'm quite dissapointed. based sa mga nababasa ko kasi yung fiesta 1.4/jazz1.3/city1.3/mazda21.3/ etc is around 10-11km/l lang din. eto din sabi nung mga agent. hehe. i'm expecting more kasi. yung 98 lxi ko nakukuha ko ng 12km/l. city driving but minimal traffic kasi misdhift ako. hehehe. expect ko sana nasa 15 na sila. hehehe. or baka nasa driver na din. sana makapag drive ng isa sa kanila para matest kung nasa driving style lang talaga nila kaya ganon FC nila. hehehe

Pwede ko din ba isama ang revo gas?
