How's your Toyota Revo doin?

**jerisrevo** · September 2nd, 2005 04:40 PM

Mine was just great bcoz I seldom using it. For 3 years since i bought it has only 12,000 of mileage. It's bcoz i'm always out of the country. I'm planning to get a new mags to change my Rim 14 to 15. Do you think it's the right time though Gas price is keep on rising fast than my car's mileage. Where can I find a cheap parts but original for toyota..Any help from u guys..

Mine is 2001 DLX model with 72T on the odometer. The only major repair is changing of two upper ball joint otherwise the usual PMS. e.g. change oil, tune-up, clean brakes..The more na naluluma mas gumaganda takbo..btw, I use fully sythetic oil by toyota..IMHO changing the rim from 14 to 15 would mean less fuel efficiency (not sure) as for parts, I'm not sure where aside from CASA coz my PMS is shouldered by my company. =)

our 99 glx is still running fine, approaching 90k on the odo, just the usual wear n tear replacements. mdyo malakas uminom.

Tried a friend's GLX 1.8 EFI M/T. Surprisingly, it felt faster than it actually is and was great fun for an AUV. I personally think it looks better than some old SUVs, and it won't shame itself when parked beside a Mazda MPV. It has half the value but they look like direct competitors. :D

If you get 15s with thicker tires, try to look for mags that are lighter than stock and tires with size 195/60 (stock is 185/70) to retain more or less the same overall diameter. The lesser weight should make up for the extra rolling resistance.

Got to use both the 1.8L gas and 2.4D variants (GLX). If i were to buy one (we're considering for one maybe next year or so), i'd stick with the diesel model... the gas variant just guzzles too much fuel based on the feedback of many owners out there (plus tope problems). Parts are easy, we usually buy in Banawe (MR2 near E. Rod).

The handling is more on the poor side, getting wider and taller 15" rims/tires (maraming 2nd hand REvo/Toyota 15" rims around the Dapitan St. area) will definitely do the car well.
