    Yes, rugged means to subject it to the elements, a harsh condition.

    look at those Mt. Pinatubo rental SuVs, those are truly rugged vehicles, but not the gasoline ones.

    you guys want to make that car look rugged coz of the foreign first world reviews and so it becomes truth that it is rugged.

    But thats only a 1.5 liter engine.
    With the tiny Jimny's dead weight & payload, 1.5 got plenty to go around. Bare basics, go-everywhere, fix-anywhere RWD-based rigid-axled 4wheeler....Pardon if my definition of rugged departs from yours, OB sir.[emoji4]

    The ladder chassis makes and mechanical 4L/4H selector makes it a legit rugged vehicle. Body on frame is more robust compared to unibody.

    Let's hope the resident diesel advocate will learn to appreciate what purists look for, sir.[emoji4]
    The rigid axle is by far the most durable & reliable suspension around.

    our colleague parked it in the workplace parking lot. looks cute. parang binatang owner type.
    ok daw ang aircon. hindi rin naman daw matagtag.

    Stocks have started arriving here in Cebu, I am still #10th on the list... hopefully I can endure the wait, we badly need a very capable small car that can provide worry-free driving on (almost) any terrain. Tsaka medyo pagod na ako sa kaka commute hahahaha! Wifey's been driving my Jazz since February.

    More than half the price of the king of SUVs, but not half less of the off road capability (perhaps 3/4 only hehe)

    In some countries. Workhorse ang LC and that is the 3 door variant i think so it just makes sense to compare it since LC are known in the 4x4 community.

    Dito lang naman sa atin ang ma social climb tbh.
