Malabo ito and i dont agree na mawala ang jeep. Tatak pinoy yan., pero i think we need e innovate ang jeep, para maging modern and if pwd pare pareho ang design.
PISTON don't really care about anything else but their own welfare. Plus, if they don't get what they want, they throw tantrums like spoiled children.
Hmm. Pero gusto ko parin ang original jeep design. E standard lang ang design and naka color coded dipende sa rota...
.
If ako masusunod. I recommend na lahat ng bagong jeep ay dapat naka sunod sa iisang design. Sabihin na nating may 2 or 3 local manufacturer lang akong assign to build the jeep. Pag dating naman sa engine e may 2 engine na pag pipilian pang akyat at pang patag.. bawal mag lagay ng extra design sa labas ng jeep at dapat in good shape. Siguro gaganda ang pinas. Kasi uniform lahat ng jeep.
Make good education affordable and accessible. And provide decent jobs. Then those aspiring to be jeepney and trike drivers will have an alternative job better than being a trike and jeep driver. Then these forms of mass transport will probably die a natural death.
ejeeps, etrikes, ecars, ebus - perfect sa maynila. if we suddenly shift to electric vehicles, say, 300,000 units; baka naman maoverload ang meralco. cleaner air = brownout?
Yung jeepney iphase-out na. Palitan nang MS na retrofitted. Baba na resale value. Tanggalin lang ECU. :D

Fasten your seatbelt! Or else...Driven To Thrill!
Mahal na rin ang pa-asssemble ng jeep. Yun palang Pampanga made na mga jeepneys (yung mga front grills e made from forts, montero etc.) then ang engine e 4BC2, 12 seater is almost P500k pala.
Yung Mitsu FB, no ac, is around P800k ba? Ayun, brand new yan.
disiplina muna ng mga drivers nyan then higpitan ng lto yung rehistro nyan specialy sa emission at mga ilaw nito. tapos yung sborang bulok ang tanggalin saka yung mga sobrang matandang driver. & syempre mag wewelga naman ang mga grupo ng mga jeep! lalaki na naman kita ng mga uv![]()
Mad max ang design ng jeepney dito sa tin. It should be outlawed because it can pierce thru regular cars on accidient collisions. The passengers aint safe either, coz the same metal / stainless can pierce thru their body inside the jeep.
Dito pa lang dapat na iphaseout sng jeepney coz it doesnt match our progress. A progressive country ensures public safety of all.
Mas ok kung uniform lahat ng public transport. Kahit iba iba may ari. Naka standard lahat ng itsura. Sabihin na natin hindi mo pwd e lipat sa ibang auto ang prangkisa kung hindi sa standard design na auto. Mahirap naman obligahin na palitan lahat ng same design kaya wait na lang ma luma. Pag super dami na naman nilang bagong design e sure naman na susunod narin ang iba kasi alam na luma na auto nila. Then standard din ang seat capacity. Kasi madalas sa jeep natin yung 10 pax e pag may matabang isa e 9 pax na lang kasya. Dapat even may matabang dalawa e kasya parin.
I think a Metro Manila phase out is doable. There's an existing move to replace jeepneys in Metro Manila with e-jeepneys but I think it has caught a snag, one being, is its cost, second is its unreliability. We recall the burning Comet e-jeepney last May.
One solution is a gradual phase out. First, scrap all dilapidated jeeps and move the newer ones to the provinces. The jeepney can still do its job in the provinces. Replace the jeeps with contemporary jeeps. What comes to mind is Centro, the company that makes van bodies. Replace two jeepneys with an Isuzu NHR-iVan, or i-Van for short. It's air-conditioned and can fit 16-18 passengers
If the government can spend P10B one time on APEC, what is a P10B subsidy for a long term solution to our jeepney problem? If the government spends the same amount for a "contemporary jeep" that's 8,000 units replacing 16,000 jeepneys (at P1.2 M per i-Van). If a private company can subsidize 50% of the cost, that's 16,000 i-Vans right away. You can deploy 1,000 i-Vans per Metro Manila city for starters. You can even tap outdoor advertisers to put up posters in the sides of the van and the roof. This will help reduce the overhead costs. Richer cities like Makati and Taguig who have on-going e-jeepney projects, can implement this in conjunction with their e-jeepneys.
Metro Manila can be jeepney-free. All it takes is sustainable political will to implement the phase-out.
