    Guys! I'm a newbie here at Tsikot. Help lang po sana kasi I'm planning to buy a Hyundai Tucson by the end of the year and my wife and I are also planning to put a carryboy as added space provider. Kaso may mga naririnig ako na di daw good decision to put it kasi on the following factors:

    (1) masisira daw ang porma ng Tucson;
    (2) may possibility daw na kalawangin later on dahil bubutasan daw ang bubong at lalagyan ng turnilyo kaya prone sa kalawang

    Appreciate your feedback guys!

    More Power and God Bless!

    1) IMHO sira talaga porma. Pero baka meron roof rack na maporma.

    2) Hindi naman dapat butasan kasi pwede naman ikabit sa roof rails yung carryboy roof rack.

    medyo malakas sa gas ang theta II pag city driving, kung sa metro manila ka work and outside manila ka nakatira ok na rin ang theta II. watch out for the rear stab link issue, covered naman ng warranty so ok lang. kung aggressive/power driver ka choose revgt. yung wala lang sa revgt na GL is yung cluster rheostat (dimmer) almost same na sa GLS theta II. fc for my theta II is 8-9km/L city driving, highway 10-13km/L. suv pero mas matipid pa kumpara sa honda civic/crv of course you can get better fc with the revgt.

    Thanks sir edquita! ano po yung about dun sa rear stab link issue? sorry po di talaga ako familiar dun. mas mahal lang ung revgt ng almost 200k. tska di pa pag diesel mas mahal ang maintenance cost? ang features pala ng revgt na GL compared sa theta ii na gls same lang din po noh? kung rheostat lang ang difference siguro negligible na po un?

    you're welcome, kasi pag nasira yung stablink may maririnig ka parang martilyo pumupukpok sa bakal sa rear part ng sasakyan. wala rin ako extra na 200k so i just settled for GLS gas model. mas mahal maintenance ng diesel pero bawi na siguro sa natipid mo na diesel fuel compared sa gas. cluster rheostat lang ang wala sa GL revgt and of course it's 4x4.

    Hi Sir edquita! Mabilis po ba masira yung stablink? any feedback po ba sa hyundai? kasi diba dapat covered ng warranty yun? Same po tau, malaki po talaga ung extra 200K... Actually pag kinompute ko po assuming na 10 pesos ang difference ng gas vs. diesel eh mga 20K kms para mabawi mo ung 200k. assuming pa po na ung 200k ay kinash mo...di pa kasama dyan ung higher maintenance cost ng diesel vs. gas at ung impact ng financing cost. Eh pag finactor po natin un baka 5 years na eh hindi pa natin nababawi ung 200k...

    depende kung gano kadalas mo i drive at gamitin unit mo. sakin kasi meron sa area namin na rough roads kaya 4k mileage ko nung lumabas issue ng stablink. covered naman ng warranty. about sa computation mo, april this year ko lang nabili unit ko pero 8k na yung mileage ko so depende kung mahaba daily route mo, mabilis mo rin lang maubos yung 200k sa gas hehehe. pero overall masaya ako sa unit ko. miss ko na nga eh, iniwan ko kasi sa casa for body repair nung mga minor na gasgas.
