guys! after months (years even, i think), am in the market to buy a 2nd hand vehicle. Wife's due anytime so will be needing a "big" vehicle.

so far, here's a shortlist of vehicles available:
1. Ford Everest
2. Fortuner
3. Vitara (the new one na)
4. CRV (not yet the new one... version 2.5 i think)
5. Alterra

heard bad reviews for the CRV so medyo last on the list na yun... the alterra naman daw, fuel injection issues. dunno if its true though...

what do you recommend? anything i should look out for -- secret "sakit"? fuel milleage figures? etc.

would have applied for the Right Car, Wrong Car but can only affford 2nd hand vehicles... ;D

none of my choices din were ever reviewed in the used car section (i think...). maybe TGP should feature na din these cars (they are 3-5 years old anyways)... ;)

again, thanks in advance ;)

guys, would like to know what are the fuel consumption figures for the vehicles mentioned.

i've heard that fortuners do 6-8km per liter for both the gas and diesel engines. alterra daw, 11-13km per liter. lakas din daw yung montero doing 8-9km per liter.

dunno which is true.

hope we hear from owners based on "real world" driving conditions.

thanks  ;)

Asian Originals / New Jazz or New City?
« on: January 07, 2009, 09:57:48 am »
hey guys, been trying to convince my office mate to get the Jazz (her first choice) over the new City (now her new choice)... No stock for the 1.5 AT Jazz and no word yet when stock will arrive. She then saw pics of the new City (i showed her the thread here) and decided she'll get na lang daw the City when it arrives.

i've seen the jazz in pictures and some on the road and really like the way it looks. as for the city, ok lang din naman. but when it comes to the interior, parang mas well "thought of" yung sa jazz than that of the city (i don't like the center console of the city... prang doesn't go weel with the interior)... 

so which would be a better choice? money and engine will not be a factor...

Driver's Lounge / What's with all the Porn in our Forum?!?
« on: December 10, 2008, 05:21:13 pm »
it's quite annoying -- dunno though if its because it's not right to post porn in forums and a number of people do post porn or because i can't access the sites that they promote... ;D

are these bots? can't you guys ban them?

Chequered Flag / 2009-2010 F1 (Pre) Season
« on: November 06, 2008, 12:07:09 pm »
a little premature to start the 2009-2010 F1 Season topic... so in the mean time, pre seaeson muna... hehehehe (ala NBA)...

Engines will have to last for 3 races for the 2009 season (instead of 2 races in the 2008 season)...

The FIA confirmed on Wednesday that from next season Formula One engines must last for three Grand Prix meetings. Engines were required to last for two events in 2008. The move is part of the governing body’s continuing push to drive down the costs of competing in the sport.

Rules regarding engine-change penalties are expected to remain the same, with each driver allowed one free ‘joker’ change, after which a new engine will mean a drop of 10 places on the grid.

Rules & Regulations / Suggestions for TGP Forums/Report violators
« on: June 20, 2008, 06:02:08 pm »
dunno if there's a thread already for this.... anyways...

just noticed that the forum has soooooooo much clutter! maybe you guys could:
1. erase some old posts already;
2. move topics to their proper sections; and
3. constantly remind forumers about Off-Topic posts (this really begins to annoy me --  checking your unread posts... then you click on a thread only to find out that it was just an OT post by some forumer....).

other suggestions?

hey guys, just wanted to know when are these hybrids (pruis, civic, etc) going to be sold in the country? i've seen press reviews, articles, and segments on these but when can the showrooms actually have and sell them?

what's taking them so long? does it have something to do with current government regulations? pricing (may or may not be a result of these regulations)? manufacturers infrastructure not equipped to handle the demand of repairing these vehicles, etc. petroleum companies "blocking" their entry? etc, etc, etc...

thanks! ;)
