Actually, 4x4 is nice to have but not really my requirement. Santa Fe 4x2 is much more specced, Montero 4x2 AT is much cheaper, and TrailBZ 4x2 is only manual, so not really apple-to-apple when comparing these three. So, more of, which is a wiser buy right now given a budget of P1.8M.

kung ako may 1.8M bibile na lang ako ng Kia Soul + suzuki SX4. ditch the diesel, milking cow na ngaun yan both ng casa as well as fuel stations. Sa casa with their required quarterly PMS else void warranty, sa fuel stations by providing dirty fuel coz of e sudden surge of PUvs.

Sa gasoline suvs ngaun, every 7500km na ang PMS, pag synthetic 10000km pwede ba stretch. tapos ang mura lang ng engine oil coz gas engines require just 1 to 1.5L liters of engine oil. Sobra sobra na.

Tas yun na nga dalawa pa tsikot mo, na may high ground clearance tas manuverable sa traffic, unlike the bulky and fat slow diesel suv. and since, mura lang acquisition, 2 insurance mo instead of 1 big limp some annually, a 1.8 M car can go 70K insurance annually.

And the cars themselves, are insurance. Coz if one morning di nag-start ang diesel suv, wala na commute ka na. Whereas, kung dalwang mini-Suv, may backup car ka.

-----

And also lastly, the smaller cars will save you from becoming big in the future, consider the smaller suv as your belt, pag di ka na kumakasya ibig sabihin lumalaki ka na, and therefore, you'll consume more resources, your expenses will grown exponentialky as your intake of fats, and lastly, magkarun ka ng diseases pag tanda mo, and therefore, instead of spending your retirement money for leisure and relaxation, you'll spend it on medicines and hospital bills

hehehe..natawa naman ako sa comment..

go for MS or StaFe, then can be driven daily

**yebo** · October 9th, 2012 04:16 PM

SF (basta huwag HARI dealer para hindi every 3-months ang PMS), for ride comfort. yung MS and TB both pick-up based, although 5-link yung TB so malamang better ride. sabagay i-test drive mo naman. all other criteria same lang sila. sa toys, bago lang TB baka wala pa.

MS, #1 sa carnap. better get a good insurance provider at baka swertehin ka imbes na may kotse e ire-refund na lang sa iyo ang insurance premium mo (ng people's general haha!) dami kasi sa kalsada madaling ibenta yung nakaw. parang jeep, dapat gawin mo 4 yung kabayo para maiba sa iba na 3 kabayo sa hood. o papinturahan mo ng weird color. fink.

basta huwag ka bibili ng sorento (para konti lang kami).

Kung hindi naman aabot ng 2M yung budget niya eh walang magagawa kundi kumuha sa HARI.

Tsaka ano ba yung problema, yung Santa Fe ni HARI o si HARI?

Kung bare yung Santa Fe ni HARI para sa'yo, 1.7M lang naman din kasi. Kung 2M ang Santa Fe ni HARI tapos 4X2 specs lang, tsaka mo sabihing put*ngina nila HARI. Kung yung PMS ang problema, wag kang sumunod sa 3 months na rule nila, takutin mo SA mo, anong magagawa niya at sino ba siya para sindakin ka tungkol sa PMS ng oto mo eh ikaw ang nagbabayad.

BTT: Get the Trailblazer, maiba naman. Mukha naman mas okay yan sa Montero Sport eh. Or Santa Fe kung gusto mo talaga, sarap i-drive sa totoo lang.
