yup.

diba majority of the e150's around is running on 4.6 liter engine?

yes but I think the body is heavier than the XP... (not that sure but feels like it when I drive it). And a heavier body requires more power to move it. More power burns more fuel.

and even with proper/great tuning will it still inhale the entire content of a lpg tank?

Yes, so unless you REALLY want to use the XP or similar, it is really much much better to choose a smaller vehicle than to convert the XP/F150/E150, etc to LPG.

what if palitan ng K&N filter and good spark plugs?

you will just have a smoother running gasoline guzzler.

ganito kasi balak namin around december kesa sa grand starex.

you might want to compare the weight of the vehicles and the engine displacements and you will see the difference.

and aabot kaya ng 60k ang conversion ng e150?

You wish!... it would be above P70K. I think SKN can do it for under P70K but I don't trust the conversion company.

Naka sakay na ako sa E-150. Ok naman.. sobrang luwag at walang tagtag. Hindi nga lang sya kasing bilis ng Grand Starex sa pag accelerate. Pero talagang malakas sa gas. Yung 4.0 V6 Explorer ko eh nakaka 4-5km/l lang sa city, yun pa kaya.

Redhorse, Explorer na yan!

anong ford kukunin mo?

SQ, Bakit pa 2nd hand na E-150? Grand Starex HVX nalang..

I had a relative who bought a new E150 2 years ago. After having it for about a month or so, the aircon broke down. Perceiving it as a factory defect, he returned it to the dealership as if it was a rent-a-car company! I'm not sure though if he received a refund. But then he liked that model so much that he bought a 2nd hand 2000 year model and has been using it ever since as an everyday vehicle and for ferrying important visitors.
