A lot depends on your preferences IMO. I went from a sedan to a pick-up and i really like the looks, practicality and economy that i got... The performance also wasnt that bad given i had a 2.7L na diesel engine... it more then enough to keep me going with the traffic and get ahead on some occassions. However there are still times that i miss driving a sedan or prefer driving a sedan. If you have a sedan that you can have at your disposal for some occassions, pick-up wins for me hands-down.
BTW, do you also ferry 5 full sized passengers out-of-town regularly? they wouldnt be too happy with a pick-up IMO.
for long distance over unpredictable roads? hehehe, 4x4 pick-up dude!
pero kung palagi kang merong maraming supplies or gamit dala, baka mabitin ka sa storage space...unless mag lagay ka ng lockable camper shell (ask kimpoy) or utility box (Carryboy etc.). :D
flexible ang pick-up and with the right suspension mods, a good sound system, walang pagod ang mga 250 km and over drives. lalo na pag F-150 (magastos nga lang!)
Ok rin Pickup pag sa Pangasinan gamit. Yung bro ko naka pickup kahit saan nya dalhin ok.
Depende sayo yan. If you want rugged dependability kuha ka Pickup. Cons lang matalbog na ride...minsan hirap maneuver sa tight spaces lalo na pag sanay ka sa car. Pero masasanay ka rin in the long run.
If you are not hauling anything naman yung pickup bed kase sayang lang unless you use a cover for your stuff.
Mag Compact SUV ka na lang. Mukhang ok X trail! mahal lang sa gas compared to owning a diesel pickup.
You can also consider an AUV. Ganda din ng XUVi. kuha ka na bago magtaas ng price. Balak din namin kumuha ng XUVi pagnabenta na Civic ko hehe
- Salamat po sa inyo sa mga suggestions en advices nyo...
- Na labas na namn yung pick-up...
- X-trail sana kaso ayaw ng dad ko kasi hinde rw mgnda,pabagsak kc ang presyo nya not like yng pick-up tumataas ang presyo...
- Pero infareness ang ganda nong fender ng X-trail.
- Kainis lng yun X-trail,yung face nya parang face ng pick-up Frontier.
- Aksaya lng yung gas nong X-trail...
- Bilib talaga ako sa pick-up ng Nissan lalo yung aircon nya...
- Maganda ba yung my Carryboy sa likod???
- Or mas maganda kung roll-top lng ang ilagay...
- I'm thinking kc pag Carryboy parang ang labas nya ay Crosswind,parang hinde na pick-up...
Bed spray! May alam akong brand tuyo agad after 3 minutes of spraying. Ang kapal pa ng texture. Then bili ka na lang cargo net to place it at the back para cool. :D
PS: Wag mo kalimutan yung locks baka nakawin yung elastic cargo net mo.
