    I received an SMS from a sales manager this morning. He's been following up if I'm interested to get the unit from them because he can allocate really fast. The dealership is famous here in Tsikot for negative transactions and this is the exact SMS he sent: There is one better way to be given an allocation. Avail the accessories worth P100T, pay the insurance of P48,888 (payable in 4mos ) and add P40,000. You'll a better chance of getting one before December8,2010

    Alam ko yan, Chevy Shaw :D not nice. Stay with GH-EDSA na lang. Just wait for your unit. At least in house insurance lang hihingin nila pag cash, 3% DI and in house insurance pag bank PO.

    ma ka karma din sila, in my case , sabi ko na lang inabuloy ko sa patay yung na dengoy sa akin.
    BTW this mid-day may na salubong akong white or silver TrailB sa Sauyo road, I flash my headlight forgetting na strada pala ang dala ko. Happy feeling that it break the spell of "walang makita sa kalye"

    Design na ng shirt para madistribute at first EB. TCCI will sponsor right?

    Yun mga sasali lang club and may trailblazer ang mabibigyan ng shirt para hindi nakakahiya sa sponsor

    I invited Lito Landicho to our first EB. Doon natin sabihin na kukunin natin ang TCCCI as sponsor. Saka na muna ang short. Sa EB na natin pag-usapan lahat from the rules, application process, t-shirt, at club logo. Pati rin ang one time membership fee. HINDI ANNUAL para fair. As for the venue, I have a friend in my bbm group that owns a resto in Metrowalk. V-Kool and Huper Optik are also willing to sponsor us. Tapos yung ibang aftermarket and car detailing shops, pag-usapan natin sa EB.

    Hi TBZ owners. I bought a 2.5VNT Fort but I also like the swag of the TBZ. Let's enjoy our rides. Drive safe guys.
    Was able to test drive TBZ and all I can say is its a very good rig.

    Thank you sir. The 2.5VNT Fort is also good IMO. Actually, the Fort, the Monty, and the TrailB all have their strong and weak points. Enjoy your Fort sir!

    It seems the fuel efficiency of the blazer is on the low side.

    *studebaker, take note na yan ang lumabas sa DIS (Driver Information System) display ni *safala, which is not that accurate compared to manually computing the FC. Another factor pa is hindi pa tapos ang break in period ng mga TrailB nila *RTS, *safala and other LTZ owners. Matagal-tagal pa bago umabot sa 5,000 km PMS (1st oil change) na katapusan ng break in period

    yes i know. i'm just comparing the blazer's consumption with an almost 4 year old 3.2 liter montero. in my experience, the latter as compared to the blazer, consumes less fuel even during heavy edsa traffic (based on the consumption of the blazer posted by current owners). I'm just a bit particular on the consumption as this is one major factor in deciding which car to buy.

    There's no difference if you will pay the reservation fee of 10K. Uunahin pa din nila yung mga in-house financing customers unless kakagat ka sa mga extra charges nila.

    *safala said it is based on what was displayed sa MID/DIS ng TrailB niya, so hindi 6.9 km/l ang actual FC ng TrailB niya. And another factor would be nasa break in period pa ang TrailB niya. Don't worry *studebaker tataas din ang FC nung kay *safala.

    Naku importanteng factor pa naman sa akin ang FC, diesel na ito ha . Upon comparing the thai suvs, im leaning towars this TBlazer pampalit sa lumang Trooper Skyroof edition namen. Gusto ko yung front design kaya lang parang naliliitan ako dahil sa maliit na glass window sa likod. Totoo ba kaya nababasa ko sa thai forum na medyo mahina sa acceleration? Other than that im liking this TBlazer. Sulit din sa features monterosport kaya lang parang gremlins na nagkalat sa daan, dahil nga sulit sa features.

    magpapa reserve na ako ng 2.5 TBlazer by the end of this month sa Q.ave.
    Sir Numbah5 tutal ikaw ang pinaka active dito sa TBlazer na thread, i nominate you as club president. :jump2:

    Toinks! Dalawa na kayo ni *RTS na nagnominate sa akin. LOL! Oh sige I'm creating a new permanent position specifically for RTS. Club Godfather.

    Acceleration wise, mahina siya from 0-45 kph, past that mararamdaman mo na yung 470 Nm na torque. 1st gear lang may konting turbo lag.
