whatever happened to the PAREJO?

[badkuk]

Hi All,

Ba't parang biglang nawala ung pinoy version ng pajero? i always thought it was a step in the right direction for the humble ownertype(although technically we *did* copy it from a pajero B).

[ghosthunter]

you meant the PAREJO ?

[badkuk]

yup, PAREJO

[FrankDrebin]

Si Neil Ocampo ng DZMM dati naka-Parejo.

[RedHorse]

baka binigyan na nang totoong pajero para iwanan na ang paggawa ng parejo

[1D4LV]

totoo ba to? Parejo? not Pajero?

[OTEP]

It was made by Atendido Motors back in my elementary days. May Atendido Motors pa ba ngayon? Ang mga kasabayan pa nila dati ay yung Carter AUV's saka yung mga gawa ng Trac motors (Trooper look-alikes).

Sa Tandang Sora may assembled na GEN II 3-door look-alike. hehehehe.

rumor has it that Japenese Mitsubishi execs even went to the assembly line of the Parejo.

bilib sila sa tanstahan na pag assemble, in contrast sa kanila na sobrang detailed...

ok lang din kasi, ang hirap sa atin mga pinoy, masyadong gaya-gaya. buti nga hindi tayo nakasuhan e. kulang kasi ang support ng government sa mga ganitong project, maganda sana e. meron ba kayong alam na ino-offer na automotive engineering dito? di ba wala? panay automotive technology. duon palang makikita mo na wala talaga tayong maasahan sa gobyerno. sayang talaga.

I recall at that time, the prices was around 150k. The pajero was at 680k this was during the 90's. But I think the drawback was the built quality. Majority of the units made had lots of quality issues like door knobs falling off, window knob falling off, doors won't shut properly, window seal that lets in water. But then its not really manufactured with high quality compared to the real thing but built to look like it: ) I also recall the engine being gasoline like a 1.6lt gas and a 2.0 diesel was placed? the gas is mazda and the diesel isuzu. Can anyone verify this? : )

Merong production line dati sa may Blumentrit near Retiro area, after the Gen 2 was released, eventually their sales dropped.

[A121]

[AC]

ehehe.. gen 1 was the lord of the road.. hehe.. everyone wanted a pajero then.. hehehe y kaya? hmmm meron naman patrol noon ah??

[Ungas]

The Pajero has more of the "social" status on our local mentality compared to Patrols. People will and always look at Pajeros as the sosyal kolehyala type, while the Patrol will be regarded as the probinsyana workhorse. :D

[kimpOy]

meron pa rin PAREJOS dito sa pampanga, he..he

[pissword]

may pix ba kau dyan? wala ata akong napapansin...

anyway ever since mas gusto ko ang patrol sa pajero... siguro nga kasi probinsyana workhorse hehe dun ako lumaki eh

[ebbfolls]

I agree w/ pissword. Mas porma para sa akin yung original na Nissan Patrol, 3-Dr, Inline 6 Gasoline, with body cladding. Parang may resemblance sa GMC Jimmy of the same era. Kung tutuusin nga, mas "sporty" ang dating ng Patrol (88-93?) kesa 5-Dr, 4 cylinder Diesel powered Mitsubishi Pajero.
