2k3 expeditions seats 9 lang. pero kung pilitin kaya 11. yung center kasi sa harap may hump sa sahig kaya bata lang pwede(not advisable). ride niya firm compromised sa handling. based sa message center 24 to 26 liters/100kms consumption.

mdpo,

your criteria limits your choices to one-box full-size vans mainly. even a suburban won't sit 10 comfortably (despite what the BIR says), nor was it designed to do so in the first place. check out the nissan urvan estate and toyota grandia and the hyundai starex jumbo, or a ford club wagon/E-150 for something more radical.

a starex will easily handle floods; it's pretty high off the ground and the chassis is, in fact, largely based on the gen2 pajero's.

With a Starex, you literally climb into the cockpit. May hagdan pa sa driver's door. hehehe.

oo nga hehe, eyeball-to-eyeball yung starex driver atsaka Canter driver hehe

Jimbob::: Any chance that GM will release the 2500 Suburban model?

[Jimbob]

altec, GM Philippines never released a diesel version of all it's vehicles, so definitely, gray market vehicle yun.

sir ungas, marami din po ang naghahanap ng 2500 suburban, but GM don't see enough market for the model, so 1500 lang ang available. bakit sir, papalitan niyo ba si beast? hehehe

speaking of 10 seaters na din, madami na din ang kumukuha ng tahoe ngayon because of the excise tax.

I was hoping for a 2500 Suburban for the next beastly idea, hehehe. :D

[Jimbob]

wow!!! are you serious!?! maraming magaabang niyan sigurado...

guys,

yung e-150 ba mataas ang height? pwede ba ito pang baha? Ayaw nila kasi ng starex since the have bad experience with one. Grandia naman di daw ganun ka comfortable ang ride.

thanks for the suggestions keep them coming! =)

mdpo,

Grandias now use a coil spring rear suspension. Do they still find it harsh?

The E150 is built on a chassis similar to an F150 pick up. Although they are not exactly the same, the E150 is still a truck with a tall step-in height and a commanding view of the road.
