    4x4 is good to have if you know how it works and how best to use it. I guess that's the answer.

    Seen to many 4x4 drivers do stupid stuff thinking the 4wd system is there to correct for their mistakes.

    4x2 if you intend for city driving. More than enough for flooded street wading and running 160 kph.

    Lakas sa gas ang 4x4. 4x2 ka na lang. No need a 4x4 on city driving.

    Wrong! I drive a GLS SE Montero Sport 6 days a week. My route is Commonwealth Avenue-Quezon Avenue-Espanya vice versa. And we all know how hellish traffic is in Espanya and sometimes in Quezon Avenue. My FC pre-K&N was 7.5 km/l. After putting K&N my FC is 8.6 km/l. That is conservative driving. All I can say is the Montero Sport's 3.2 4M41 engine is one of the most fuel efficient 3 liter diesel engines in the market today.

    For me, I'm still getting the GLS 2.5. It's going to be my wife who will primarily use the car din naman. Plus since the GLS si cheaper, that gives me more money to buy my own daily driver, the Genesis Coupe 3.8 V6.

    Super Select 4WD naman ang montero sport GLS SE eh. Pwedeng 4x2 mode lang..

    Pero still even if nasa 4X2 mode ka, fact remains the 4X4 system is there. It has a lot of weight, and we all know weight affects fuel consumption... So kung di mo kailangan nagdadala ka lang ng extra bagahe na pampabigat...
