underpowered cars

[badkuk]

sorry, couldn't resist asking, gawa din ng paglabas ng suzuki apv...

aside from sluggish performance, ano pa ba ung masama if you have an underpowered engine under the hood? poor fuel economy?

[fakesaint]

my uncle owns a gen 1 pajero 88 mdl, well maintained 2.5 diesel..yung akin e 3.0 v6 a/t gas engine, imported, 91 mdl....nung tinanong nya ko sa fuel consumption ko...6 km./l... pareho lang daw kmi!

[coiter]

yup. poor fuel economy. and an overworked engine which will be older than it's mileage will say.

safety...imagine merging onto a highway in front of a speeding bus with crappy brakes...those hamsters under the hood will be working overtime so you all don't turn into a pancake

:D

poor fuel economy would be the sacrifice especially if your transmission is A/T. pero a lot of manufacturers fix the problem by putting proper gear ratios to cope with the small engine.

[kimpOy]

its better to have a big engine and change my driving style rather than having a weak engine and trying to floor it.

imho mas matipid pa ang Ford Escape 2.3/3.0 V6 kesa Ford Escape 2.0

Isa na ako sa mga yun...:bwahaha:
Nung ginamit ko dati yung sa relative na corolla LE nabagalan ako binibirit ko na hindi ko nararamdaman na bumibilis na ako...

i kinda know the feeling sir gearspeed. kaya nga napaka good boy ko sa daan -- a 2e's not gonna give you much confidence when overtaking :D

sana ung 1.5L turbo-intercooled diesel engine ng matrix ang nilagay nila sa apv, para mawala na ng tuluyan ung doubts :p

mas mabilis kang mag-ooverhaul. lalo kapag laging overworked yung engine mo due to loads.
