    Performance used to be the Trailblazer's trump card. Now it's just a point of parity, so why would anyone still buy the Trailblazer over the Fort or Montero which have comparable performance?

    Cause it’s cheaper I guess? And not everyone wants to have the same car as his neighbor?

    personally,
    i do not care if my car is the same as my neighbor's.
    my car is a tool.
    so we both have the same choice of good-quality tools...
    heh heh.
    OT.

    Yeah me too, except for the car being treated as a tool.

    But maybe that’s some of the reasons someone might get a car over another... me I’d get something that has the best value proposition rather than the badge. Not interested in diesel PPVs but I can say the Fortuner 2.8 is ok naman. I think it is the best performer sa segment niya.

    These Asian PPVs are meant for all-around utility use and performance is not much of a key requirement for most buyers. People buy the best one for their needs.

    If you want performance out of a truck, then get one of those American SUVs or full-size pickup trucks - they have big powerful engines, lots of towing capability, they are quick off the line but they are expensive and consumes a lot more fuel.

    For a mere mortal like me, cost must be the main reason.

    But not for Trailblazer if I am the buyer, maybe for choosing Montero than Fort.
    Tingnan mo naman, may naglabasan offer ngayon 2020 4x4 GT for 500k discount.
    Meaning, 1.95m nalang yung Montero 2020 4x4 GT if kunin before year ends.
    Compare that to 2021 4x4 Fortuner LTD which cost 2.4mish.

    Bakit kailangan niyo ng 4x4? Sa province niyo gagamitin?

    May kaibigan ako, kakabenta lang ng pick up niya, naghahanap ng bago, gusto daw niya ng medyo mabilis sa performance at “fuel efficiency” ng diesel SUVs. And sa daan, madaming mga nagpapabilis na pick up and SUVs, ala boy racer... although I agree with you, clearly may mga tao na nagcoconsider pa rin ng performance kahit sa PPVs...
