**duron** · February 23rd, 2011 07:05 PM

since of the the well known Taxis in the Phil are Toyatas, how can one know if it was an ex-Taxi before if the car has already changed hands a few time since it was dropped.

Di pwedeng basehan ito.

What if nanakaw yung orig plate ? Papalitan na ng rizal plate agad yun.

sample :

Ex taxi yan, tignan mo may H sa gitna.

*renzo:What does H mean?

how to know? check the mileage... kung suspicious ka sa mileage... tignan mo ilaliman ng kotse.. most cab drivers doesnt care if mataas ang humps or malalim ang lubak.

saang province nakarehistro to? parang ngayon lang ako nakakita ng ganitong model ng toyota na letter p ang umpisa ng plate number ah.
ang alam ko po pag x-taxi mas bago ang plate number compare sa model ng kotse.

^ so meaning yung plate na yan pang taxi bagamat Luma sya? ano naman yung Rizal plate? sorry being a noob with this stuff, just liek to make sure

H means Hired, D means Duplicate

Malalamang x taxi pag may marka letra na binura sa siding or door trim maaninag parin yun saka pag pudpod na lahat ng mga handles, swtches, pedals, door knobs, etc. May marka yung pinagkabitan ng metro pati yung ilaw sa dashboard. Saka yung stance la na sa porma.

wrong answer sir. dati may taxi rin kami pero nagsimula siya as a private. so nung ginawang taxi pinalitan ng plaka syempre. pero nung ginawa ulit naming private, yung plaka pa rin niyang original ang naging plaka.

pwedeng ganito ang case. not all taxi's are registered as taxi kaagad.
