Isuzu MU-X or Toyota Fortuner

[friedrich]

---

For the Toyota;
Also check out the montero, they give big discounts and imho, is the most fun to drive and value for money.

Curious ko how we get these discounts? Is it sa bank or sa dealers/agents?

I haggled with the dealers sir, I paid in cash.

For the Toyota;
Resale value
Newer platform 2nd gen d4d engine.
Availability of parts due to number of units sold.
Ride a bit on the stiff side and not most bang for the buckos in terms of what you get.

Isuzu
Resale value
Most fuel efficient of the bunch
2nd gen crdi engine
Bigger displacement and more durable as it is run conservatively
Parts availability lots of third party dealers.
Third row seats fold flat
18" rims already
Bang for the buck compared to the Fort for the same price point
Design a bit dated already, due for a facelift soon.
That trademark isuzu engine clatter, not as refined as the competitors
Over all build is not as refined so you do have to inspect your unit closely, especially the gaps on the body panels.

TS, it all boils down to what suits you, I highly recommend you do a test drive on both.

Thank you sir. Honestly nahadlok ghapon ako family sa issue nga SUA sa Montero gud. You know what they say, first impression lasts jud. Hehe!

Mao lage sir, mahal2 bya gamay ang Fort sa MuX nya dli kaau value for money ba.

Usa ra jud ika advice nako nimo sir, get what you want, not what others want. At the end of the day, ikaw man ang mu gamit sab.

I recently got the MuX over the Montero & the new Fort. I have test driven the three, before finally decided to get MuX. These are my considerations though:

- Engine Displacement: There is really no trade for displacement. Power-to-weight is also OK.
- Leather Seats: This is my main consideration as I have a toddler who frequently eat something while riding with us. You will already get leather seats at the price of entry and mid variants of Montero & Fort
- Cabin Space: For me, mas dako2x gamay, or the cabin feels so spacious
- Fuel Efficiency: I would say I am having a very lean fuel consumption with this SUV roughly around 10-12KMS per liter on a mix city/highway driving

Cons:

- Outdated, and I like the facelifts made by its biological sister Chevy Trailblazer.
- I find it odd that the third row, isn't flush on the floor when folded
- A bit stiff in terms of riding comfort
- Boring Dash design

Pero again sir, choosing a car is very subjective, and what is OK to us, might not be as appealing to you. So my advice is, follow what you really want to pursue. And the most important thing, ask your wife 'bout it because they normally have the final say... LoL!

Thank you sir! Mogawas naman daw this March sa Thailand ang 2017 Mu-X sir, facelift daw but wa pay balita to what extent jud. Should I wait for this kaha if ever I pursue MU-X? And kinsa imo agent sir? Maau ra? Labi nas aftersales matters.
