@ EZRA: hmmm natinga sad ko why people at tsikot.com naka abot ang 2.5 strada nila ug 170kph nya ang fortuner 3.0 kay 180 ra limit, i have not tested it lisud sad sa srp kay naay liko2x matuwad nya ko hehehe dali ra rba mabalintong ning mga suvs & pickups sa toyota.. pero naay video sa youtube... you can see it at youtube by the way ang sa strada kay going up pa ang speed pero murag nasuko ang wife mao wa na nya pakusgi while ang fort nana sawg iya accelerator

i'll never buy toyota again after my experience anyway nindot man ang experience namo sa mitsubishi very reliable suvs and pick-ups

about chosing KIA over Toyota hmmm i wouldn't mind basi nindot d.i. ning KIA hehehe and besides nag dali dali nakog dispose sa fortuner so gi-trade nalang nako sa KIA.



@ Kenny_Tiu: yup, sa looks pareha ta since nindot man sad ang fortuner no doubt about that... yup nindot gyud

diri sa mandaue alone pag visit nako one agent naa nay 5 ka reservation ika 6th na ang sa akoa dad, pero sa cagayan na nya kuhaon hehehe sayang di ko ka pahimulos maski 1 day lang hehehe

about the price mas mahal gamay sa fortuner pero gamay ra diperensya... ang GLS was about 1.7kapin pero napa nuon discount 80k nahug ug almost the same ra gyud sila hehehe

I looked up the specs sa 2.5 nga Strada - with only 136HP to put out - tingalig nag utong nana sa 170kph (I think that's roughly 105 or 106 mph, right?).
Anyhow, you don't really need your vehicle to go that fast, diba? gagmay baya mga dan diha, mga taw taka pag drive nya mga pedestrians taka lag labang.
As for KIA ... same as Hyundai, ni saka nasab ilang quality/craftsmanship pero I don't think they're at PAR with the Japanese carmakers. Not yet anyways.

somebody told me na ang Fortuner if i change lang daw iya springs sa luyo mo nindot na daw iya ride.

Can anyone confirm on this? Has anyone tried to change the springs and felt the improve softer ride?

I changed the front and rear shock with old man emu na shock and coil spring sa Tri-J . Ni taas na our fortuner and also the ride mas solid na. Dili na murag barko iyang ride. Stiff man ang ride kay old man emu na shock akong gi taod is for extreme of road man. I just want to get back the feeling while driving a pajero but it seems like dili gyud ma pareha with the fortuner.

yup thats true daghan kaayo nag change sa shocks and wont get the same ride as the pajero, as for me wala nako gi change and based on my experience after 2hours driving kinahanglan nakog back massage hehehehe

pero some people at tsikot said that kung mapuno ang fort mu humok na cya, i haven't tested this nuon kay kasagaran ako ra usa o duha rami nagsakay.

Give and take man sab gud nang soft suspension.... car like ride pero it defeats the purpose of having an SUV.

Kung kinsay naay Strada, suwayi kuno i- moose test at 100-120 kph... hehe

Anyway, akong opinion kay mas important ang torque sa mga pickup/SUV rather than top end speed cause even sa SRP dili man ma max out ang speed.. unsa pa kaha sa uban roads diri.

Sa highway sab going North or South... when overtaking .. kailangan ug torque para avoid accidents in passing other vehicles.

No doubt again .... I will take the FORTUNER over the new MONTERO .

Just like any given time and place , the HILUX over the STRADA .

There is an old saying: 'For want of a nail, the horseshoe was lost. For want of a horseshoe, the steed was lost. For want of a steed, the message was not delivered. For want of message, the war was lost.

Fortuner. hehehe. Peace mga bro.

@bostonfan naay aftermarket shocks and spring sa fortuner. baliktad sya sa stock shocks. sa stock once ma puno mo gwapo ang ride kung aftermarket naka once ma puno mo bati ang ride.

Toyota is more concern sa environment dats y they set the max output to a minimal nga pwd magamit dri sa pinas. if u have the old brochure of the old altis and the new one makita nimo ang diffrence. Most of the sales rightnow is not about the Max output, it more how fuel efficient d vehicle is.

2009 Toyota Fortuner

Projector Type Headlamp. New Design Grille.

New Design Tail Lamps

New Design Rims

W/ Bluetooth Phone Call Function/6CD In Dash/AUX
