It doesn't tumble sir, kaya medyo challenging pumasok sa 3rd row.

I've only driven 70+km so far so can't say much.

1. When i checked the trip meters (trip A and trip B) it had 26km reading on both but the odo itself had only 3km. Ano kaya yun narereset nila total km ran? Just curious hehehe.

2. Di bitin ang power ng 3.2 as i expect, having been an owner of a bt50 3.2. Although heavier than its pickup brother this is easier to maneuver since the rear does not get lost (tail fish ba tawag dun?) Naka 2 hail mary passes na ako kanina

3. I asked my kids at the 2nd and 3rd rows. Ride is better than the pick up (expected), almost same as the starex except when going at plus 60kph on ruts (sinasadya ko idaan sa sirang parts ng kalye). Lamang ang sorento sa agility (syempre lang) pero mas maganda suspension pag sa humps. Sa lubak halos same pero may time na may "thud" ka na mafi-feel na akala mo leaf spring ang rear.
we'll know more tomorrow idadaan ko sa mga lubak sa urdaneta-manaog road.

4. Nakakainis ang proximity sensors nya. Di kasi consistent. Bigla na lang magbi-beep akala mo may katabi ka wala naman. Minsan naman inches na lang pag tingin mo sa side mirror pero di naman siya nag-beep. So nakakagulat pag wala naman, then it gives you a wrong sense of wala ka katabi pero dikit na pala. I want to turn this off as i don't want to get in the habit if relying on this. Mas magaling pa din side mirror.

5. Rear camera ok siya pero don't believe too much the lines it shows on the screen. Like may curve line na indicating kasya ka pero remember this line is for the wheel. It does not include the bumper of the vehicle which in fact projects out when cornering in reverse.

6. EPS, not as light as some say (featherlight, can turn with small finger). Yes magaang siya pero not so much as you lose confidence naman. Even at slow speed.

7. Forgot who said it, yung 2 radio stations in the same memory. I think it is the "alternate station" setting. If the "alternate station" setting is activated then if the station you are listening to has a lower intensity than the alternate on the same memory may chance na it will shift to the alternate station. Hula ko lang di ko pa nabasa manual ng husto. Naisip ko lang kasi it happened kanina, bigla nagshift ng station nung humina signal nung station na naset ko.

i feel a certain rage when i see an everest with this color. few weeks ago, an everest as*hole parked illegally and block my car. i feel like smashing his windows and keying his ride while i was waiting. when he finally arrived after more than an hour of waiting, i let him know he is a ****ing as*hole. luckily he admitted he is wrong and said sorry, otherwise i would be in jail now for killing him ... and its in front of his family.

Btt: congrats on new ride.

Have been waiting for 3 mos already for this. Have not had any silver colored vehicle before thats why Im asking your opinion about this. Some say its easier to maintain.. is it true? thanks in advance and more power

Black is hard to maintain. My first car was black and got so tired of fixing swirl marks, scratches, etc with washes, waxes, compound etc, etc. Yes it looks great but it's really a pain in the a** to look after. So for all my cars I've usually opted ever since are not black. If you have a dedicated car wash/boy and paint detailer and opt for a paint protection/sealant/cover program and don't mind paying the extra costs for it then I guess it's not really much of a problem with black but for less hassle and maintenance go with the silver, you won't regret it. Instead of waiting forever to get the black just get the silver and enjoy the car sooner and you'll long of forgotten about the black.

Silver is one of the easiest to maintain especially with scratches, also it looks cleaner than black when dirty or don't have time for regular washes, for sure.

Anyone confirm how to turn this off? I've tried so many of the settings but whenever I press 93.1 on my preset it tunes to another station completely. I have to manually tune to 93.1 everytime either using voice or the tuning dial. It's very annoying. Sometimes the reception is not that great either on some stations. Others have mentioned this problem also in the fordclub ph forums.

Lots of hard coats available now. Cquartz and opticoat are excellent choices. I would get black and get a hard coat. No swirls marks for years.

Nice initial review.

Hope you can also give us feedback on NVH, road feel like how was it on provincial on rough cement or asphalt road, how does it absorb those mini vibration cause by road imperfection(magaspang na daan like on old deteriorating asphalt) and please always compare it with your other cars. Or maybe bukas may top speed na ang 3.2 dito hehehe.
