Montero non-VGT or 2012 Ranger XLT

[ratchet23]

I know the comparison is odd. placed a reservation on ranger 4x2 XLT last month. dadating july pa. then dumating yung GLX non-VGT ng Montero which IMHO is better value for money but old and madami na sa kalye. sobra.hehe.

I'll ask you guys, ano prefer niyo. just a people carrier (5pax). I don't think we'll make use of a pick-up cargo area, nor the third row seats of the montero. just good amount of space for five persons. we have a 2011 Sorento kaya ladder frame muna gusto namin para may alternative para sa mga rough roads and occational floods.

2012 Ford Ranger 2.2 TDCi XLT 6A/T - 1.119m
2012 Montero GLX non-VGT M/T - 1.168m

don't want the A/T version ng GLX Montero. parang di sulit paying 100k for 4 speed A/T. di bale sana kung 5 A/T.

My pick: 4x2 Ranger XLT in aurora blue. Watching all those videos made me believe that this is the platform to beat in this segment, unless Toyota does a better job with its next gen, Hilux.

IMO, the Montero's total package (engine, chassis, ride,etc) seem quite crude compared to the Ranger.

Montero's 4D56 is tried and tested though. Parts available and expected reliability are known factors already.

montero ka na lang. best bang for your buck. takaw bang-bang lang nga

I think long term, you'll appreciate the higher resale value of the Monty.

Ford Ranger ako.

Never liked the Montero, ang gusto ko lang sakanya is cheap and strong engine. That's it.

And sobrang dami talaga sa kalsada. And if you ask me, although same price point mas mukhang mahal yung ranger.

Sa dami ng montero nagmumukhang cheap.

^ thanks sirs.

ako din gusto ko ng ford ranger lalo na in wildtrak form. sadly 4x4 lang yung wildtrak. ayoko ng mag4x4 di din naman nagagamit. yung sa sorento once ko lang nagamit.

on the other hand. the price of monty GLX M/T is attractive, considering it is not bare at all and safety features are still present. Big macho SUV at a price of an AUV. yun lang andame talaga sa daan. every parking lot parang showroom ng mga montero.hehe

yan din concern ko sa pick-up. the cargo area will be almost useless. yung display nila sa MIAS yung accessorized, yung Bed cover na OEM nila di maganda tignan. pero in and out ang ganda talaga ng ranger.

pero for me I like the silver bottom part front bumper rather than full body color bumper that we are getting.

ford ranger ako sir. mas macho saka bibihira lang. montero kasi, gaya ng sabi nila masyado na palasak...

[yapoy86]

kung ganyan ang hitsura ng ranger.. malamang ganyan din ang next gen everest.... exciting.. mas macho tingnan... hindi talaga bagay sa everest yung flower shaped head lights eh
