Leave it on. You'll eliminate hydroplaning over wet or dusty surfaces.

For deep mud or very rugged terrain, nothing beats a 4x4 with LSD

Bro I think you mean losing control when hydroplaning? Hydroplaning is inevitable when a car is traveling at a high rate of speed over a puddle of water and the tires lose contact to the ground.

4x4 is best with front and rear lockers, LSD helps a bit, but lockers always gets the job done. Trust me, i do offroad. ;)

The TCS system of the MU-X interferes with the braking system at the rear to keep traction at bay. You can't do donuts or burnouts when it is activated as it will stop the wheel from turning faster than it should. I think the reason why it is only available on the automatic variants is to avoid accidental powerslides while turning over a wet surface. It is easy to do it on the MU-X or any other PPV/Pickup without TCS.

Thank you Sirs. These are all very informative. Learning a lot.

Help naman sa gumagamit ng navi.. Hindi ba talaga nagdidisplay lahat ng name ng street? Hindi ko kasi nakikita lahat..
Nasanay kasi ako sa garmin na nakadisplay lahat ng street names

AFAIK sir meron options while nasa navi, meron checkbox options kung alin alin lang ang didisplay. kapag selected all, parang overcrowded na yung map, kahit barber shop naka-mark.

Parang sobrang bilis naman yata lalo na during day time ang biyahe mo. Sa dami ng motor at tricycle sa daan ang vigan to san fernando ay nasa 3 oras. Di ko alam kung paano mo nakuha yan.

Sorry kung di po kayo naniniwala. Wala naman po pilitan. Ask nyo po si Carburn kung pano ako magdrive nagkasabayan na kami minsan sa EDSA. I do not drive recklessly, but I must say madiskarte ako sa pagmamaneho.

Here's another photo I took while at the Paoay Sand Dunes. Enjoy! 😉

Kaya talaga yan. The very first time we went to Baguio with the MUX took us 2hrs45mins to get to Lion's Head. Malaking factor din un madiskarte ka and un tiempo ng kalsada.

Kaya talaga yan pag malakas loob ng driver at may diskarte.

Yung driver namin dati mahusay sa timing, pag umovertake hindi lang paisa isa o daladalawa, hanggat kaya sumasalubong si mokong except sa kurbada at blind angles.

Well its possible. There was a race i think posted or in TGP, its manila via ilocos then isabela back to manila, clockwise route. More or less 8 hours yata.

Mga sirs ano sa palagay nyo size ho ng mags/rim ang bagay sa MUX with out sacrificing its riding comfort? Yung sa thread ng eve na mga naka Titanium gusto ng palitan ng stock mags nila into 18" kse matagtag daw?

for me, aesthetics nalang ang 18". basta correct tire profile and tire pressure. anyway, matagtag naman talaga ang ladder compared sa crossovers.

but will be switching to 265/65-17 tire size after (dont know)? years
stock is 255/65-17.

Thanks. yung sa Titanium stock yata is 20" gusto I downgrade sa 18"

It's doable naman bro... but your trip timing doesn't adds up dahil sa mga pasaway na trike/motorbike pag hapon ang drive mo. Minsan ko lang nakuha ng 2 hours from Magsingal (3 towns more after vigan) to San Fernando and that was in the wee hours in the morning. No trike/motorbike na perwisyo during those times. Yung mga passengers ko na lasing ay hindi nakatulog.
I can't imagine yung sa iyo kung ano ginagawa ng mga passengers mo during your trip hehehe.

Ingat sa pag drive bro and back to regular programming.

Yep, I have seen Aaron work his magic in EDSA. ingat lagi bro

Depende sa zoom dapat 50m, pero usually di talaga nasusulat lahat ng street names or minsan nakagitna sa isang street na mahaba.

Kailangan familiarize mo din sarili mo sa pag gamit para easy na sa future. So far comparable naman sya sa OSMAnd app sa phone, mas detailed lang OSMAnd. Overall it's quite good naman. At least di ko na kailangan ilagay phone ko sa holder na naka kabit sa dash.

naka auto zoom siya sir.. wala talaga.. hindi lahat may nakalagay na names..
nasanay lang ako sa garmin na lahat ng street may name.. 4" pa yun.. hehe

nakatanggal na lahat sir.. walang POI

Nakapag update na ba kayo ng map sir?

[Civic_Racer]

Yes sir. Q3 2015 nakalagay sa map. Yun daw yung updated.. Sabi ni winterpine..

Thanks for the up bro. Ganyan ko din usually kinukuha paakyat ng Baguio. Pag natapos pa yung last segment ng TPLEx I'm sure mabawasan ng 10-15 minutes yan paakyat ng Baguio.

Well its possible. There was a race i think posted or in TGP, its manila via ilocos then isabela back to manila, clockwise route. More or less 8 hours yata.

I think that was an average 8 hours one way for cars. For big bikes 5-6 hours one way up to Pagudpud, some even faster. Nasa records ng BOSS Ironman challenge yung fastest to take the Northern loop.

My passengers:
dad - co pilot
2nd row - mom, ate, sis in law, 3 yr old neice
3rd row - kuya plus luggage

My dad spots road-widened shoulders and tells me if it's safe to pass right. Everybody else was sleeping, paminsan checking their phones. Sanayan na lang siguro sa driving style ko. Wala naman nasusuka or nahihilo.

I also use the GPS nav to track overtaking segments, kaya before completing a turn, madalas nasa overtaking mode na ako, yung iba sa harapan ko check pa nila muna yung kalsada kung may parating. Been doing this since I started doing road trips 5 years ago, ang gamit ko pa nga yung OSMAnd app sa phone.

This is my 9th time going up north. I can't say I am an expert but like what I said, madiskarte lang bro. My mu-x is nearing 24k kms since I got it last 12/15/2014. I usually do 30k kms yearly on my daily drive, nagpostpone kasi ako ng Baler and Sagada trips.

Bro turn off mo yung auto zoom. Nakakagulo yun sa navigation.. Personal preference ko lang din. As a guide here's what I usually use:

50m - max 30km/h
100m - max 50km/h
200m - max 80km/h
400m - expressway driving

Pag naka auto zoom kasi minsan may hinahanap ka di mo macontrol, babalik ulit sa 50m zoom 😂

Tama din yung suggestion na disable mo yung mga POI. Kung high res sana yung maps hindi ganun ka-crowded ang POI.
