Q>Fortuner

[swerkxs0]

totoo po ba matagtag yung fortuner at anu po ba mga maari maging problema sa fortuner

[gergeray]

yup totoo po, ewan ko lang sa bagong model ngayun, kung gusto mo maganda ride na kalevel ng fort mag sta. fe na na lang.

[agent_ysann]

sabi nila yung unang model matagtag daw, di ko lang alam kc i'm used to the riding comfort of mine. i used to drive a '97 pajero so masasabi kong gusto ko ride ng '06 fortuner.

according to the review and other peeps around here, nag improve naman daw regarding on the new model.

since it's a truck-based SUV, expect the ride not as good as the crossover SUVs. if you want an alternative for this one, the "real" alternative, check out the Mitsubishi Montero Sport.

nga pala, i just passed by NLEX at palabas ako ng Angeles Exit this morning lang. nakita ko delivery truck ng toyota (i saw the "toyota" sa side ng truck) sa side mismo ng exit loaded with cars (vios, altis, fortuner). i noticed that the head of the said truck yuping yupi. yung fortuner at vios na nasa upper deck, sira na yung front nila (they were positioned face to face). nanlumo ako sa nakita ko, nasasayangan ako, wala pa plaka tapos masisira lang. yung ibang cars na hindi na-damage nililipat sa ibang carrier. i think they were being delivered further north luzon. di ko lang nakuhanan ng picture kc male-late na ko sa office...

Sigurado i-repair nila yan then ibebenta ulit as brand new. Kawawa naman makakakuha ng mga yan. Did you notice the colors of the cars?

[agent_ysann]

color of the Fortuner is grayish brown metallic, but not sure if 2.5G or 2.7G... but definitely not a 3.0V since walang air scoop sa hood...

red mica metallic naman sa vios, di ko napansin anu variant...

this is no good... malamang toyota dagupan or baguio ang bagsak nito kasi sila lang naman yata ang toyota casa up north.

hangang ngayun pa rin ba matgtag pa rin ba ng fortuner mga 2007 or 2008 model na 4*4 at 4*2 im planning kasi baka masayang

We have a 2009 Fortuner "V" variant. Admittedly its got harsher ride than my Isizu Bighorn (but what other SUV that does not ride on an air suspension has a smoother ride than a Bighorn/Trooper?). However, I would say that its not much harsher (matagtag) than a New Nissan Super Safari. Ok lang siya, I guess

[XTO]

i think the road that you're going to will be a factor too
sa tingin ko naman po kasi di naman aalog ng ganyan mga cars kung plain straight ang kalsada na dadaanan niyo

i agree. very subjective talaga ang tagtag issue. minsan very excellent sila mag absorb pero lesser life span naman at madaling kumalampag kumpara sa mga with stiffer suspensions.

[alainroyce]

totoo po ba matagtag yung fortuner at anu po ba mga maari maging problema sa fortuner

i agree wd quan2boy kung sanay ka sa sedan medyo matagtag ang feeling mo, but for the passengers okay lang, i got my 2.7 fort 3 wks ago at nasa starting to know stage pa lang ako, is there someone out there that can give me some thing to expect ... ty

my cousin owns a 3.0 D-4D Hilux since 2005 pa (sa kanya yung unang release ng Hilux 3.0G sa Toyota San Fernando Pamp) and is happy with it... wala naman daw syang na experience regarding choking, hard starting, stalling probs, etc... knowing my cousin, maingat sya sa sasakyan at maselan sa fuel stations na pinupuntahan... his Hilux is still running so good, same engine sound for the past years of ownership (observed everytime na nagkikita kami)... this is the reason why i believe na nasa quality of diesel fuel ang problema, wala sa engine mismo... no wonder kaya ayaw maglabas ng diesel engine ang Honda dito satin dahil for sure they will experience the same...

yup, taken from our garage... it's a 2.7 VVT-i (graduation and birthday gift ni mama, hahaha) ... turning 3 years old this coming june... it's my daily drive and really satisfied with it... no complains on fuel economy, maintenance cost and ride comfort... i prefer the "real SUV" feeling of an SUV than a car-like comfort...

proud owner of facelifted 3.0 D4D here, my odo reaches almost 3K got no prob, so far wla pa naman nag complain sa facelifted fort since it release (oct 2008)...tagtag is tolerable some guys are so exaggerated on this matter just don't compare it to sedan. fort platform is not sedan base but its tougher and durable to compare....

[Burai]

what do some guys want from the money you paid for that price ba BTW? some active air suspension inside an SUV/truck based car? sa price ng current fortuner i think you already got what you paid for mas mahal pa nga rav4 kesa sa fortuner diba
since mas mura to compare to real luxury SUVs, yung perang natipid mo eh gamitin na lang sa suspension upgrade to what makes you feel comfortable. level up po kasi ako dun e, truck based nga naman body niya. no wonder some can't appreciate it

Hi, Any idea when Toyota will release in the Philippines the next generation Fortuner? With the release of the Montero Sports, the Fortuner, even with the latest updates, looks dated.
