    Malapit na mag-January... pwede na ulit ako mag car loan! woohoo!

    I'm thinking of getting a diesel SUV. My budget is 1.2M and I'm after reliability (since gagamitin ko going to Bicol) and fuel economy. I can't wait for a fortuner so that's off the list. Can you make some suggestions?

    sir is this budget for brand new?
    i think the everest would fit in that price range

    but if its for a pre owned then it opens a lot more options
    pajero,trooper,safari

    Yup, kailangan daw brand new kasi yung bank ang magbabayad since this will be under a car loan.

    Hmm.. mukhang maganda ang reviews sa sorento ah. Any more suggestions? Keep em coming!

    1st choice would be the Sorento... problem is that for your budget yung base model (EX) lang ang pwede.

    2nd choice would be the Everest - medyo swak sa budget...

    Everest 4x4 at that budget range for brand new (if the design fits your taste). I recently drove ours for 10 hours (Manila-Zambales-Pangasinan-Baguio) and it was quite good in the power delivery department. Not bad for no-frills vehicle (pre-combusiton chambered diesel engine).

    Was talking with some guys on a Everest that was left submerged for three days in Rizal; when it was recovered they just cleaned the interior, changed the light bulbs, put fresh fuel and a new battery; started it and drove it away. The peeps from C! and TG also have quite good regard for this vehicle.

    How about a 4x4 pick-up (DMax, Hilux)?

    Bosing, I'm also planning to go trekking up north this coming summer. Pwede bang paki-share kung san-san ka dumaan at nag-stay? Di kasi ako familiar sa route na ito. Yung usual Manila-Pangasinan-Baguio lang alam ko.

    Ford Everest 4x2 AT - Php 1,095,000

    Ford has a promo until Dec 25 which entitles Everest buyers with free upgrades to leather seats and I think two years of Ford Solutions (Insurance and maintenance). Almost Php 100,000 worth daw.

    kung sa pa pogian lang ng SUV fortuner na ako!!! pero medyo mataas nga lang sa buget. bilis din naman sya eh. boss na boss and dating!!! toyota pa hindi naman tatagal yan kung pangit yung quality. malamang pag madami na ng may fortuner dyan mumura na rin yung parts nya!!!! maganda rin yung everest. i test drive a everest diesel engine. medyo hindi ko na gustohan yung sound ng makina diesel kasi eh, para ka nag drive ng L300 van. but ganda naman yung loob bigger space than the fortuner. for wat i know toyota shaw has a available unit now. try to call them. hindi ka magsisisi kung fortuner ang bibilhin mo. matass pa ang market value nya. ako nga i bought a Fortuner 4x2 gas for 1.4 M bnew sa grey market kahit na alam ko ng price nya is est. 1.350 ( insurance, 3years LTO reg, ) for me kasi this will satisfy my nids. its is!!!

    Bili ka Fortuner 2.5d4d.

    Joke lang. I wouldn't plunk down 1 million big ones on an SUV that wouldn't even start.
