Vehicle for travelling on rough road?

**Haruto** · November 30th, 2009 01:04 PM

Hi Tsikoteers, Sirs, Ma'ams,

Ano po ba ang recommended na vehicle for rough roads? I'm living on taytay rizal and go to work somewhere on global city. Uwian po ako everyday and ang masasabi ko lang.. awang awa po ako sa sedan namin.. and dahil nga po rough road ang kalye papunta sa rizal.. (specially on floodway!!) kawawa ang auto.. madali pating masiraan ang suspension system namin.. so i am just wondering.. ano po kaya ang magandang vehicle for travelling on rough roads (comfort , fuel efficency etc., price)

TIA~

**current ride is 97 nissan altima and 96 nissan sentra...

first on the list is dapat RWD. mas matipid i maintain front suspension ng RWD. then you can also opt for rear leaf springs for the rear like AUVs Crosswind and Adventure.

2nd hand? a 97-99 Vitara shall suffice. Get a manual para fuel efficient. It has good backbone for off road or flood swimming hehehe better than same age RAV or CRV. 1.6L engine lang matipid sa gas.

yeap, pero im also having some double take, sabi kasi ng mga nakakausap ko kadalasan ang sakit sa nissan is yung idling and napakahirap daw nun ayusin kapag nagkaprob..

) well i've experience some of the idling issues sa altima ko.. may ganung prob din ba kapag xtrail?
