    In hindsight to this, anong variant ng Fort yung mga barumbado sa road? From what i've observed:
    4x2 diesels (which is a glorified Innova to me) = either barumbado and/or pimped up with blinging wheels on the Metro Manila Streets
    4x4 3.0s = pretty agressive when the road is open or on the highways.... palabas pa lang ng toll booth entering NLEX hataw na.
    4x2 vvti's - more behaved (because of the cost of fuel?)... hehehe.

    The height of the Fort plus its affordability has made it quite visible and popular on Manila Streets thats why its easily noticed when the driver is being a arse.

    On the Patrol, i think its more of 8 out of 10 that carry sirens... Nissan should consider making it standard already. :P They're just more expensive thats why its not as ubiquitous as the Fortuner on the A-hole drivers listing.

    korek madami sa mga pinoy tinuturing na status symbol pag naka suv lalo na ng fortuner.. eh sa totoo lang hindi naman ganun " ka exclusive" ang fortuner.. its just an ordinary vehicle with big tires yung lang..

    panis naman sa mga CRDI-VGT ng kia at hyundai yan

    hay naku lalo na yung mga escort ng politicians minsan nang gigipit pa.. sana lang makatagpo ng katulad ni ampatuan or ni jason ivler yan mga mayayabang

    kaya tuwa ko lang pag tumirik sa kalsada ang D4D nyan hahaha..

    minsan may nakasabay ako nyan fortuner bilis takbo.. im using my trusted suzuki scrum peacefully coasting the highway.. eto si fortuner bilis.. nawala sa paningin ko.. mamaya nakita ko na sa gilid nakatabi at pilit na pina pa start engine nya.. haha sabi ko na lang "ah eto pala yung D4D woes" haha..

    Yeah bwisit kasi mga Thais eh nagimbento pa ng sub P2M SUV kaya ayun nagkalat sa kalsada. Dati real elite lang ang SUV the Patrols, the Pajeros, the Landcruisers and the V8 Detroit metals like Expedition and Suburban...

    Sa observation ko the 4X4 3.0's ang pinaka barumbado mag maneho... Yung VVTi nga yung pinaka behaved...

    hindi naman kasalanan nung sasakyan yun.. ang problema yung nakasakay lalo na yung driver...

    ewan ko ba bakit ang ugali ng pinoy sa kalsada eh mang gipit at mang lamang sa kapwa.. napaka rare yung makatagpo ka ng magalang at mapag bigay..

    sa edsa shaw under pass may paalala ang MMDA na "wag na sumingit o lumipat ng linya.. makakarating din tayo sa ating pupuntahan" ewan ko ba bakit lahat nagmamadali.. ok lang sana matulin basta wag lang makakaabala o makakagipit sa iba..

    parang gaya noon unang panahon na napakamahal ng mga LAPTOP na halos worth 100k dati mga rich people lang ang can afford but with the new "cheap" brands eh dumami na naka laptop.. ngayon hindi complete ang porma mo pag wala ka LAPTOP while inside STARBUCKS... same with SUV made affordable pero yung mayabang na nakasakay cheap pa din

    Nakakainis nga talaga kapag may mga barumbado kang makaharap sa daan. Sa init ng ulo ko, hahabulin ko at iccut ko pa yang mga yan pero mahirap na baka kung ano pa mangyari. Hinay hinay na lang, isipin mo na lang napapatae yan at baka palabas na.

    Sooner or later those arrogant SUV drivers will find themselves in a not-so-good rollover condition, which is especially true for Fortuners which have really high body roll.

    My teenage friend drives his dad's Montero Sport will such similar angst.
    He said he aint afraid of body roll because of the SUV's refined suspension, but darn it was refined for comfort, not sportiness, so he better beware.

    Maiinit pa sa silinyador bata pa kasi at puro porma pa ang hilig.

    I wonder why these "entry-level" SUV drivers are so arrogant feeling-bigtime on the street, as if they drive X5s and Panameras, where in reality their Fortuners and Monteros are as common as Vioses on the street...

    Tanggap ko pa kung dala nila ay BK Pajero, LC100, Rovers or their similar or higher equivalents.
