Is Jeepney still something to be proud of?

[theveed]

Yung mga jeep sa Pasig-Marikina, ang lalakas ng sounds hehe di ka marinig pag papara ka na...

To stop full strings...

To stop full strings...

naalala ko noon high school ako
iyon ibang jeep w/matching lights pa aside from the buzzer,tapos nagugulat ang driver at mapapatapak ng bigla sa brake..ugh

"Pull the string to stop the jeep"

ano itoh nasa string ang brake

Eto namang si "Black Prince", dapat dito panghakot na lang ng yelo.....

parang eto nga yata nagdedeliver ng yelo sa amin .hehehe

ok ang jeep the innovation of jeepney with aircon is good, however such attitude that overdoing or over rating something is not good, mas ok if the govt will eliminate or scrap unefficient puv, even private vehicles, yun tipong patapon na

ok kung gayahin sa taiwan or japan ,where efficient light way transit exist and bus with proper bus stop

Aesthetically, I think old Jeepneys looked much better than the new ones, there were still a few of them running around in the early 90's.

PS: the black car in the background appears to be a '51 Buick Roadmaster.


PS: the car on the left is a 1963 Plymouth Valiant the van on the right side of the photo is an early 70's VW Type2 Kombi aka "Bus".

i'm part of the jeepney riding public. ako mismo, i wish there was a more orderly, disciplined system in effect -- yes, even if it means walking a bit farther to designated sakayans, even if it means i have to pay a little more to not have carcinogenic smoke blown in my face.

and boy, the way *some* jeepney drivers drive...you'd think somebody stuck a lit cigar up their *$$.

probably yes because its a Filipino ingenuity, really something to be proud of.

pero kung driver ang pag uusapan, ibang usapan yun.....

[imprezawrxsti]

But of course , but we could have brought this " ingenuity " to the next level looooong time ago. Talking about progress, you know, but right now it's more of a symbol of a third world country. Don't get me wrong , without this antiques on Recto /divisoria/Quiapo maybe i wasn't able to get my diploma and could have been in a different set up, but for holy diesel's sake the govt should start phasing them out and came up with modern mass transport. Guys, can you imagine living with this thing for another century while the rest of the world probably has hybrids, electric cars...so what's next ? hybrid jeepney

Nagtataka naman ako, bakit nari-rehistro pa yung mga kakarag-karag na jeep. Dapat tinatanggihan na mga ito ng LTO. Marami akong nakikita na bumibiyahe pa, pero halos hihiwalay na yung katawan, pero nabiyahe pa. Pero i-check mo yung LTO sticker niya, 2006 pa.

The Japanese copied jeeps c/o Mitsubishi Willys. They improved and develop it to the Pajeros of today. We had Sarao and Francisco Motors copy them too, but they still make them the way they use too...
