Meron naman na Passad ng Iloilo na AUV na.

O kaya under license magproduce ng Cab chassis ang mga fabricator na Pinoy.
Tulad ng Mitsubishi L300 FB with Almazora-Fujino body o Isuzu IPV with Centro body..

Dapat lahat ng bulok na jeepney, itapon na sa dagat at gawing artificial corals.

Bulok na jeep

Zombies! Rolling Coffins!

There was such a time, when Jeepney drivers were proud of their vehicles, showing-off all their borloloys and their blaring 8-track music players. Now a days, there is "No Pride" at all. "Kahit anong itsura, pwede na, bast gumugulong"

There should be a delipidated vehicle law or jalopy act that should prevent the likes of vehicles from plying the road, both public and private vehicles.

Imagine...how the hell did this thing pass the emissions testing? Oh wait...emissions testing is a big joke...

dapat sa may ari ng jeepney na yan kasuhan ng littering or carrying dangerous weapon dahil baka matetano mga pasahero at mabundol nyan!

Yes it is a big joke. And one of the reasons why its a big joke is the cut-off limits are adjusted so the jeepneys would have an easier time to pass (as long as they don't spew out black smoke).

Yeah and some new small motorcycles (100cc+) have a hard time passing emissions testing!

Iyong DPROX chasis na terrano looks like a good one for a redesigned jeepney. The configuration is just right and is almost the same as the standard, small elf'd chassis jeepney and may have enough strength to hold the mostly overload jeepneys in use in the p[rovinces.

I remembered once nakasakay ako sa really delapidated jeepney in Magalang, Pampangga with rust all over. It was really comic whenwe first roamed around town collecting the passengers from where they lived and at one point a passenger had a bale of long sugarcane tied up to around a foot and a half in diameter and almost as long as the jeepney itself.

Nope, they did not put the canes inside the jeepney, they THREW the bunch onto the top of the roof... and man experience in a lifetime nangyari at first time I've experience na umulan ng sang katerbang kalawang on everybody in the jeepney. It took awhile na ma shake and brush of the rust from our heads and clothes.

The story told is a point of consideration on design. The design has to consider the worse case scenario on the abuse the jeepney has to take when meant for country use.

PS - BTW our former associates in an automotive shop we almost started to build AUV's way back in the early 90's have been manufacturing chassis of different makes, evangelista's elf's (the small and large), fx's with practically alll makes of which they have the technical configurations and knew what engines and power chains can be specific types of chassis.

Not sure now though if these configuration can be modified for electric power systems or perhaps the electric power systems design can be adjusted to the chassis configuration.
