    Depends on how you use it. If you need to haul people or stuff then keep the auv. If its only you and/or partner then a car is ok too.

    IMO

    I'd would go with replacing your AUV with a sedan. A sedan will handle & accelerate better.

    imho, if you really don't haul a lot of people/stuff in your daily travels, why not? pwera na lang siguro kung bahain/lubakin ung route mo

    for everyday use, the sedan is the best option. comfortable ride ka every day. pero if you are a family man, i would suggest keeping the revo.

    Depends. An Accord is much more comfortable, but running costs wil be much higher. The Civic will have comparable economy to the Revo diesel, and much better economy than the Revo gas version.

    I personally like the Civic, but if there's nothing wrong with the Revo, why not keep it?

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    IMO... from an AUV (revo) to Mid-size sedan (accord)... Yes...

    1) Having a mid-size sedan is a "status symbol" lalo na pag nasa corporate ka...

    2) Mas komportable dahil mas malaki kesa sa compact sedan (civic)

    3) Masarap mag-cruise while your running 120kph... kaya ng kaha na walang masyadong ingay, vibration, at syempre stable na stable....

    Syempre iba pa rin kung ikaw ay "family-centric" or "car-centric" individual....

    [SIZE=3]WOW! great replies you guys! thanks a lot.

    finally decided to sell the revo since i'm the only one who uses it and my most frequent passengers are just my girlfriend and my two friends who i hang out a lot.

    we just bought this because my parents used to visit us here from the states but now they decided not to visit us anymore for a couple of years to save some money.

    going for a sedan now. hopefully i can sell the revo soon so i can start car shoppin'. wish me luck! thanks again!

    If I were in your place, I'd go for SUV like Rav4, Escape, CRV, Grand Vitara or Fortuner. If you're thinking of the cost, there are slightly used once you can buy.

    The ride of these SUV's ar much like a car and you do not worry about humps or pot holes, plus these cars have prestige of its own. Iba ang dating pag BIG car mo with style.

    Go for the Accord bro....the resale of your 2000 Revo will probably get you a 99 Accord. Sa gas consumtion, baka pareho lang kung gas din yung revo mo but the ride of the Accord is miles ahead of the revo. Good luck!
