    This should be a challenge to the manufacturers... Para di na sila mag fund for motorsports since here they can really observe test real world non-stop abuse for the cars they are selling.

    They should pay the taxi driver as well, dun sila mag research for weak points ng kotse.

    True. in fact when i talk to taxi drivers some of them tell me that car manufacturers don't want their cars to be used for taxis because they'll show their obvious weaknesses

An example is the Honda Civic (havent seen any Honda civic taxis before), and the old Mazda Familia (although meron ng taxis nito, konti lang). Ewan ko lang kung Ford may ganito ring provisions.

    Awts, nasa warranty card nga na dapat private use lang or else no warranty for u. No need to sign any waiver.

    Just an update.

    I saw 2 Alto Taxis already. Color white Deluxe version ata since di black ang bumpers. I saw it in Ortigas while having an EB with the Strada boys and saw another sa Makati.

    Subcompacts are getting popular already. Meron na rin Hyundai Getz.

    Very true!


    Kaya I never believe those Motoring media testing cars on Race tracks. I mean who drives that fast anyway? (Maybe 1 in hundred?) And that smooth road of a racetrack is not the real thing that is out there.

    Slightly off-topic, but not that off topic:

    Does the LTO still require Taxis to be colored white? Kasi Ive been seeing many taxis na red, tapos dumadami na rin yung yellow and green color...

    Kasi if not required, then maybe the Suzuki Alto Taxi would really be nice if we are able to give it a nice color to stand out... yung mga kulay pink siguro, hehehe
