Thank you sa reply sir, hindi ba sila share parts sa ibang mga AUV ng mitshu? what I know kasi may local assembly plant na ang fuzion sa pinas, I really like fuzion kasi maybe I need to look for a little bit lower mieage instead.

one thing I also like sa fuzion is her naturally aspirated 4G64 engine, hindi sya masyadong computer controlled, means easy to repair,, this is only me.

sir.. i think kahit mas mahal changeoil ng diesel suv... mas mura parin ng malaki total na gastos mo per km compared sa gasoline mpv..

Di lang change oil ang mahal sa diesel, pati ang aftermarket engine parts nito mas mahal rin.

Kung brand new ang bibilhin, I will go for diesel. But if second hand and diesel ang choice, mas maigi busisiin na hindi abused ang pagkagamit ng sasakyan and nasunod ang PMS nito.

Other wise mag gasolina na lang.

my current ride is local isuzu trooper 2002 the one reason I lean to Fuzion because of the gas engine, ayaw ko na muna sa crdi engine mataas ang maintenance cost ( i.e. change oil),

in that case, you might consider a gasoline innova. threaders say it does a decent 8 km/li.

but bossing... crossing out a crdi because of an extra thousand bucks for oil change? think of the fuel savings a crdi will give you! na-cover na yung extra expense on oil change, kumita ka pa!

and let me re-iterate... hi mileage cars might drive ok at the start.. but soon, their age will show, no matter how meticulous the previous owner..

i am not an agent of toyota, but "wala pa akong nakikilalang hindi nasisiyahan sa innova nila". (nope! i have never met owners of smoke-belching innovas nor gastank-leaking innovas.. i try to keep 200 meters away from them..)

good luck.

I beg to disagree. Di porke't mataas mileage e laspag na. Nasa maintenance pa rin ng may ari yan. Paano kung nakakuha ka ng low mileage na sasakyan kaso di naman regular ang maintenance. A daily driver will clock around 20k kms yearly kaya nga ang schedule ng maintenance ng sasakyan e every 6 months or 10k kms tapos 1 year naman or 20k kms.

TS, if you know the current owner and you know how the car was used pede mo pa rin i-consider just keep in mind na medyo malaks talaga sa gas ang fusion.

thanks sir Bin Diesel, actually the average mileage per year of a car is 15th miles, is about 24th plus kilometer per year, for the fusion my wife knew the owner a family friend actually , and friends wife driving it.

Hindi naman mahal parts ng fuzion e. May 2008 Fuzion GLS Sport din kami. Ok naman hanggang ngayon with 60-70k mileage, Mama ko gumagamit. Takaw lang sa gas kaya we're planning to sell it na.
Sa papa ko naman, in less than 2 years 105k kms na natakbo ng montero niya.

Maintenance is more important than mileage, for me.

TS, try mo mitsu grandis or nissan grand livina ^

better kung innova.

how about the wear and tear of high mileage versus low mileage? consider na parehong maingat ang owner at parehong well maintained.. which one would you prefer?

What i am saying is.. you can find low mileage cars with that money and with quality as well..

besides I consider high mileage cars as laspag.. maybe that's just me..

syempre common sense na kukunin mo yung mas lower ang mileage kung pareho silang well maintained.
i'm just challenging your comment na high mileage laspag na agad. remember if you follow the recommended maintenance schedule magpapalit ka ng mga parts to keep the vehicle in tiptop condition.
if you really consider na high mileage cars as laspag and you say that it's just you then you should be careful in giving out opinions kasi baka may mag take into context ang sinasabi mo. better keep it to yourself or put a disclaimer na it's just me.

i have nothing against anyone.. our fellow tsikoter is asking for our opinion if the car is still a good buy and i am giving my opinion.. nothing more..

i did not say that he/she follow my opinion and i am not saying that my opinion is general for everyone.. if I keep my opinion to myself then how can I share it to others? that's why its an opinion.. we have different views and I am sharing it.. I believed i did not say anything offensive to anybody..

at the end of the day he/she still holds the final decision..
