The only problem leading to a lower availability of Diesel-powered cars back there is EPA and its regulations more based in politics than technical reasons.

Sir, only the SA and his Manager benefits from the Dealer's Incentive (DI). The Bank will not get a centavo from the DI, that's is why the Banker of sir ano discouraged him from getting the TBLZR considering the ridiculously high DI of 10%. Dapat dyan sa dealer na yan ikulong yang SA/Manager. Talo pa bumbay sa interest.
Ang card companies mas mababa lang ng kunti sa usurers. The bank do not give enough interest when we park our money, so bumili ng TBZ in cash kung pwede lang, unless ma-i-invest ang cash for higher returns wag lang sa scams.

That's true. The TBills are low and that is government guarantee (our governtment now first the first time has positive dept/equity ration - means we have more capital than international debts). There are added % into the interest; Risk Free and Risk Premium (w/c is more expensive and bank dictated). In reality, we should be at least 3%-4% interest rates for short term loans (just my assumptions and not data validated). In the US, interest rates varies from 1% to 3% only. While in the Phils, it junks up to >38%. The Peso is appreciating but we are not feeling this into our daily life - note that even power rates continues to go up month on month. The reality is there so much variance on interest rates and of our current tax systems (i.e. we have income tax, when we but foods/gas, we have VAT, when we use roads we pay tool gates...so many double taxations)....it's ok to pay tax if we get free services in return (just like other countries). We have to feel the improvement of our economy into our home/wallet and that we get the "value" of it - else, it's just a bubble.
Going back to the subject thread, I enjoyed my trailblazer 4x4 so far and that I'm greatly satisfied (except that i might upgrade for a good HU dvd/gps to make it more "executive"). It requires patience to get it. I suggest let's not rush into these SA/dealers or else it will create a side effect force into high % interest rates or "greedy" stuffs. Let's just thanks those dealerships and SA's that live with their commitments and form our "own" force to encourage other soon-to-buyers to patronage these dealers/people... besides, they can deliver any in the regions.

December 21st, 2012 12:27 PM #1725Maybe you can upgrade to Lexus for exhilarating acceleration or maybe wait for the Sta Fe Long Wheel Base for comparable space improvement. Just a thought though, for you know your best choice.

December 21st, 2012 05:18 PM #1727One time I parked my sapphire black LTZ TBZ in the basement of Waltermart Makati, and parked beside mine was a generation 2 Sta Fe and behind me a gen3 Sta Fe. I looked from afar and because of the tall stance of the TBZ it seemed to me that the TBZ may sell more than 2 million hahaha.
