    Mga SA ba is ok sa cash payment or they still insist on financing for Jimny to tell you the usual “priority list”?

    If your a cash buyer who get a unit recently, do they put you on the bottom of the list and what is the waiting time?

    2 months is reasonable, yung lang di mo pala nakuha preferred color.

    yeah you gotta settle w/ the less desirable colors if you don't wanna wait forever the nice kinetic yellows and brisk blues, maybe even whites, they probably "force" you into financing in order to get them

    jungle green m/t probably a lot shorter waiting, coz there was one available on the showroom when i paid my 10k reservation. or maybe any color M/T will have less demand

    useful tray



    theft-deterrent lug nuts

    also got those plastic covers for the exposed wires to the defogger



    i've been evaluating some tow bar options. this one seems half-*assed w/ that L-bar thing that's bolted on separately and the steel is way too thick for the capabilities of the little jimny. i think i'll DIY this

    also getting a small winch and recovery boards. and also a dual-cylinder pump to bring the tires back to 26psi after airing down for offroad

    what's that pump?

    pansin ko lang, probably most of these 2-cylinder pumps have PLASTIC cylinder "blocks" and heads. but they paint them metallic silver and have fins in them to make them look like metal

    hoping to find an all-metal. but then again i've got a single-cylinder that has a plastic head but metal cylinder sleeve, and metal piston, and it works just fine

    Wished for the ViAir, but too pricey for something I might not get to use often. Opted for the GSPSCN Heavy Duty Dual Cylinder.

    this is P2400 ingco dual. good thing there's a physical store near me. under the plastic shroud seems to be metal where the air outlet is. hope there's a teardown vid on youtube, to verify

    there's a cheaper Total that's practically identical (same oem) for P1900 only

    still evaluating the available options...

    got the total version. with the P120 cashback it's ~p1500

    i'll be powering it w/ a powerbank btw, so i don't have to run a wire to the battery which is a hassle

    Just spoke to a CS person at Suzuki New Manila (Wheels, Inc) and she says there are basically just 3-5 Jimny's coming in every month at their dealership. They have a reservation list a mile long (15 as of today).

    Oddly, it seems most buyers are preferring the A/T variant. I was a bit surprised by this as I always thought aficionados would prefer the stick shift. There is a gray M/T one available right now, btw, but they are expecting it to be sold before the weekend.

    Contrary to common perception, enthusiasts would lean towards the AT more on this 1. Most use it on & offroad, city & country. Water crossings? The sealed auto tranny will have less risk of water damage than the MT. On technical trails, rock crawling, the AT will be way easier to handle.

    well,
    i believe many buyers use it as daily drive in the metro than off-road, hence the preference for the AT.

    also,
    the more senior the aficionado, the more they will gravitate to the AT.
