BTT na ako: Ako, wala akong kinakampihan. On the side of automotive manufacturers, yes - karapatan nila na i-protect ang investments nila and when this law is implemented, they sales may go up. Whay did I use the word "may"? Kasi walang namang assurance na tataas ang vehicle sales nila eh when this law is passed. Admit it: mas maraming may may-ari ng 2nd hand vehicles compared sa brand new. Bakit? Kase mas maraming hinde (pa) kayang bumili ng brand new. I said "pa" kase hinde naman natin alam ang magiging financial future nila. Kasi, in my personal opinion, kung ang lahat ng motorista na may 2nd hand/converted vehicles at kung ang lahat ng taong gustong magka sasakyan eh kayang bimile ng bago abay puro cars less than three years old ang makikita natin sa roads ngayon.

It's like this. Correct me if I'm wrong but a lot (take note: a lot, hinde ko sinasabing lahat) of the people who buy converted SUVs or vans are consumers who are the the middle income and upper-middle income bracket. Most of them don't have enough resources to buy the SUV or van that they like. Bakit? Kase kulang budget nila. So what do they do? They get converted SUVs or vans. Now, with this argument comes the question? "Bakit na lang hinde bumili ng 2nd hand na dito sa 'Pinas gawa?" Most of the time ang answer eh pera pa rin: di ba mas mahal ang 2nd hand na Pajero na dito gawa compared sa Subic converted Pajero?

Okay, maaring sabihin ng marami sa atin na mag-ipon na lang muna tas tsaka bumili. Good point pero may mga issues din dito. For example, hinde ganun kadaling mag-ipon ng malaking halaga lalo na pag wala kang extra income or maliit lang ang extra income mo. By that time na nakaipon ang pobre, manghinayang syang bitawan ang ganun kalaking halaga lalo na pag may identified sya na mas pressing need. So, what does the person do? Hinde na sya bibili. Kung minsan, naka-ipon nga pero matagal naman ang inabot, say ten years, aba'y baka by that time eh yung mabibili lang ng naipon nya dilapitated or very old vehicle na lang.

Ako, I earn good pero I don't have the capacity to buy a new vehicle - atsaka ang tingen ko sa vehicle eh liability, hinde asset. So what am I doing with a motor vehicle? It's, unfortunately, a necessary liability in these times for me - and for a lot of us. My vehicle doesn't earn me money. In fact, loosing ako sa kanya kase gastos ka ng gastos pagpapagawa tas nag-de-depricate lagi ang value.

Anyways, for me - hinde pa rin solusyon ang pag ban ng Subic converted vehicles sa pag increase ng sales ng mga car manufacturers locally. Kahit i-ban pa ng government ang pag-benta at pag-bili ng 2nd hand vehicles na gawa sa 'Pinas, hinde pa rin tataas ng ganun ang sales ng mga car manufacturers dito sa 'tin - kase malaking porsyento ng motoring public eh walang pangbile ng bago.

I agree with you bro.... and isa pa kahit na can afford ka bumili ng bago, If you are not filthy rich, you would be thinking twice before you let go af that amount... vehicles are not good investments since i do think that they are more of a liability than an asset.... imagine magkano yun bagong hyundai getz... 468 k for a brand new na low end na manual samantalang may nakita ako dito na pajero gen2 na 4x4, all power, matic, etc... na second hand... san ka na di ba?

[XTO]

unahin nila yung safety regulations na dapat sundin ng mga umaangkat

nitong mga ito. kung hindi naman makaka-perwisyo sa bibili at ibang tao

hindi naman ata makatarungan ang ganito.

wait and see

Which brings us to the next question why buy when you can't afford it???

Not generally "can't afford".

"Can't put up with installment" is more appropriate sir.


Buying a 2nd hand car in full is much easier than buying brand new. Especially when you're business could not give you a definite income per month.

Just my opinion.

[prysm_1]

ipa-declare mo na lang na scrap or garbage yung sasakyan.

so importer ka lang ng basura. tapos pa rehistro mo sa LTO hehehe

[GasJunkie]

* batang raon


I'm not even working yet, so sir cannot be applied to me.










Edit was just trying to point out the absurdity of the "porma" over common sense argument.


Edit2 sure business would suffer short term but will get better in the long run.

[russpogi]

Same with me. I CAN'T AFFORD. 'nuff said about that. I really liked what nicolodeon said.

[russpogi]

Buti pa sa U.S. and Canada pwede ka mag-import ng Japan surplus. Hindi mo pa kailangan i-convert to LHD. Naka ex-JDM GEN II Pajero SWB TDi yung kakilala ko sa Canada.

Doc, sa Canada, pwede RHD for street use. Sa US (or some states) do not allow RHD for street use.

[OTEP]

Sa U.S. pwede mo gamitin ang RHD sa street provided you have it registered at a state that allows you to do so.

[russpogi]

Sa U.S. pwede mo gamitin ang RHD sa street provided you have it registered at a state that allows you to do so.

Ohh... so per state pa din pala. Di kse ako sure sa US eh.

[chain]

been purposely avoiding this thread..

IIRC, medyo malaki-laki ang binigay na lobby money ng mga car manufacturers. but that story goes well with a good round of beer.. o kaya sa next EB na lang.

[OTEP]

Ohh... so per state pa din pala. Di kse ako sure sa US eh.

Madaming loopholes pero minsan mapapagastos ka talaga if you want an exotic machine. Mas madali pang magregister ng kit car.

Mas maluwag sa Canada.

[GasJunkie]

There are talks to close those loopholes.







:fly:


Edit noose is getting tighter that's why there are only 10 evos running around in canada. :rant:

Wag nyong sabihing kaya maraming namamatay na motorcycle/scooter riders dahil dangerous yung sasakyan nya? While the motorcycle is more dangerous drive that four wheeled vehicles, kay maraming na-aksidente na motorcycle/scooters eh dahil reckless at irresponsible yung mga riders.

Wala pa rin un sa driver halata naman na mas dangeous ang 2-wheeled kaysa sa 4wheeled kng nasa driver man masasabi mo bang mas reckless ang mga 2wheeled driver's kaysa sa bus puj or taxi drivers ?????? At kng nasa driver man IMO ko maliit na percantege lng.

Nasa driver pa rin. Kasi kapag wala yung driver naka-park lang yung vehicle so walang accident.

[alwayz_yummy]

^ tama c frank!

[jasprit]

di ko naisip un. hahahaha

ah!

kaya pala sa swordfish, ride ni john travolta naka RHD

[oldblue]

ok lang kung sa developed countries mag-iimport ng 2nd hand. they have good roads, good rules and good drivers.

dito kahit gano ka kagaling na driver + mechanic all-around like varsity+top ten student , takaw aksidente pa din yan. dito kahit i-promise o i-dasal mo sa sarili na hindi ka mag-swerve, mapapa-swerve ka dahil sa tinamaan ng lintik na PUV's. laws of physics lang, we have a messed-physics sa daan, naturally kung segunda-mano na kung minsan kinakamay pa ala owner type jeep, malaki probability makasakit.

dont think about yourselves na kesyo makakatipid kayo o mina-marginalize kayo. think about the people around you too.

parang speed limit lang yan. that is not for you to keep you safe but to keep everybody safe. engineers waste half of their lives in schools for a reason. leave it to them.
