Mag sirs, mag tanong lang specially sa mga taga Laguna. Planning to buy a Gl grandia para ipaarkila, how much po kaya ang rate pag for rent. Parang how much from San pablo to airport, san Pablo to mega mall San pablo to subic, San pablo to naga. San Pablo to vigan etc.

thanks in advance
So sorry if out of topic, wala Lang talaga ako mapag-tanongan.

*Jason Tan: I also have an SG leather but the monotone variant. I think for a 7 yr old vehicle, normal lang na mag peel yang gold part kung sticker lang siya. It is exposed to different elements kaya talagang magpi peel off yan pag tumagal. Even the paint itself, the color gets faded depending on how you took care of it when the vehicle gets older.

I think the 2 tone is done by TMPH. Even the alarm, backup sensors, dito na ata yan galing and ini install.

*jodsalva: Ngayon ko lang nalaman na sticker lang pala ung gold part ng SG 2 tone. For all those times, I thought it was paint. So yan ung 15k na additional when you buy the 2 tone.

*victorioarvin: Doon sa niri rent ng neighbor namin whenever they go out of town as a family, ang pag factor daw niya ng price is based on the city or province na pupuntahan. Meron din daw siyang MB van pero mas gusto nilang niri rent ung Commuter kahit mas mahal ng konti. Pag Laguna, ibang price. Pagdating ng Batangas, Bulacan, Pampanga, La Union, iba iba ang prices niya. Meron siyang prices per province. Meron din daw siyang price for whole, half day, etc. That is exclusive of gas, toll and other fees. Ung uncle ko, pag walang makaka paghatid sa kanya sa airport, he pays 2k daw from QC to the airport. Urvan ata ung pinanghahatid sa kanya.

Kaya if I were you, mag search ka sa net ng mga nagpapa rent just to have an idea kung magkano ang charge diyan sa mga places na nabanggit mo. And make sure na same or at least the same model ng vehicle na bibilhin mo ang price ng rent na isi search mo. Like in your case, GL Grandia ang gusto mong iparent and presyong pang Urvan ung ipa price mo, baka lugi ka.

For a 7 year old vehicle, the one I got was really well taken care of. Still factory paint all around with the paint still having that factory paint "grain" (or whatever that is called). The only eyesore is really the peeling gold sticker on the doors. I will have that part repainted soon.

Another question, regarding the two overhead a/c intake grille with the filter, I removed it to clean the mesh filter. It needed a bit of force to remove and all plastic locks went popping. Had to improvise with 3M moulding tape to make it flushed when I reinstalled it. What would have been the proper way of removing it without breaking the lock clips other than probably removing the whole ceiling?
