Don't forget, there are also lots of foolish and desperate customers.Originally Posted by BlueBimmer

BB, wala pang schedule na bumalik dyan. testing the waters here.

Dealers are relatively independent, and can declare their own price if they want to throw on a few extras. It's exorbitant to claim 70k for leather, but full leather seats for my Ford Lynx would cost 40k... 210k for mags and tires is harsh, but a good set of mags in that size will set you back 140k++++ ALREADY. The additional gouging the customer will have to suffer from this amounts to probably "only" 50k net. :lol:
They're trying to appeal to the borloloi customers. It's not fair to try to bundle so much onto the price, but if they're confident, let them. No matter how much we complain, someone else, someone with enough money... will buy it anyway.
In the meantime, Ford is laughing... as their cars already have more borloloi than any Toyota could have (especially a stripped-down IMV special like the Fortuner) at base price.
Shame... the attraction of the Fortuner was the ability to buy a basic SUV at high quality and with a low price... that's just something the dealerships DON'T understand.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...
ang trend sa U.S. pati na din sa Pinas..
pag mahina na ang sales saka nila "ibi-bling-up" ang mga stock.. then benta with a premium or less than the orig price tag..
hindi yata alam ng Toyota Philippines yun eh..hehe
pero baka meron lang din talaga silang dahilan kaya nila ginawa un..
dahil sa kaunti lang talaga ang supply ng fortuner dito.. eh benta na lang nila ng mahal.
sounds logical diba?
sabi nga.. meron pa rin jan may mga pera ang bibili nyan..
Mataas yata ang odometer reading nung unit involved... Ayaw sabihin ng ahente eh... Yikes, baka demo unit nila yung binibenta!![]()
One clear example of the Law of Demand and Supply.Originally Posted by kiper

... sino na ba may pinakamalaking sales ng SUV sa pinas? ... tumataas ba sales ng iba dahil sa turnoff nila sa fortuner?
Ford has the market lead, but Toyota's Fortuner problems have sent at least a dozen or more sales to their competitors, so I don't know how much of Ford's lead is Toyota's doing.Originally Posted by mrpink
