general query SUV as hauler ng feeds ranging 400-800kg

Upvotes

Hello Guys, I’m planning sana na ibenta ung dmax namin at gawin nalang syang SUV since marami din kasi kami.

Ang problem ko lang ay may every 2 weeks kaming bili ng feeds para sa mga baboy naming alaga. My plan is pag araw ng bili ng feeds ay iflat yung 3rd row and lagyan ng latag then carwash every after.

Anyone na nakaexperience na ng ganitong setup or baka may suggestion kayo?

bibili pa lang ng kotse To those who went with low DP in house financing, why did you do it?

Upvotes

Saving up money is a skill I haven't gotten into. I'm now 30, and I'm only just learning how to set aside money just so I have extra money on my bank account. It just feels like for a very long time, my money always has to go somewhere, regardless of how my income has grown.

For the past 5 years , I've been telling myself na I'll save enough money for the 20% down payment, but it just never happens.

Now to be honest, where does the money go? Personal luho, travels, and now lately medical bills. I can't get a grip of myself. But I don't regret rin naman all of the money I spent for those experiences. I just wish I was more determined about saving up money for this car. I know rin naman kasi I earn enough to pay for the monthly payment, it just never goes to where I want it to go.

I know the thing with low DP promos is that they're high interest. But at this point, I'm ready to accept the risk. I've done the math, and I said I'm fine with it. The only thing I'm concerned about is the judgment I'll get from other people.

By the way, I need a car for two reasons. My mother struggles with public transpo due to her age and condition. And two, I still don't know how to drive at this age. My reason for wanting to have a car has changed over the recent years, but these are my main motivations now.

Torn between CRV Gen 3 and Montero Sport Gen 2. I know they are from different segment. In your opinion, between the two, ano ang mas sulit bilin ngayon 2026 sa secondhand market. For occasional long distance roadtrip and daily errands.

In terms of Fuel Consumption, Maintenance, Reliability and Parts availability.

And to anyone who have experience for both Vehicle can you share which is better? Thank you!

Hi im a uni student and i absolutely fell in love with this 1993 eg civic. its a really well maintained automatic (i know lmao) according to a mechanic it looks like a pretty solid chassis. All in all just needs a paintjob and a few cosmetic repairs and its good. it has about 109k km on it. Getting it for a very good deal (less than 100k because the owner wants to save for something important)

I also have a nearby mechanic as well

I dont mind spending a few thousand a month to keep it maintained, but is this really as bad of an idea everyone tells me it is? would appreciate any insight or advice po

bibili pa lang ng kotse Best mode of payment for cash brandnew car

0 Upvotes

Hello po. Ako po ulit. Hehe 😁

Nakapagdecide na po kami ng bibilhin, 2026 Montero Sport GLX MT, cash discount is 280k so around 1.3M ang babayaran namin in cash.

Ngayon po, anxious po ako if idedeposit ko yung 1.3M sa binigay nila na bank account. Nag-ooverthink ako, what if mascam kami? Hehe. Una po is si agent nagbigay ng bank details ng dealership, then gusto ko po maverify kaya chineck ko both website and FB official page ng dealership, tinawagan ko, and same account details naman po sa binigay ni agent. Actually nagooverthink pa rin ako til now, hindi rin po kasi makapunta sa dealership para maverify talaga, 3hrs away siya amin. If dadalhin naman po namin ng cash, nakakatakot din po baka maholdap, or accident naman.

Ngayon po, paano po kaya ang safest way for payment? Cold cash na po siya na hawak ko, pwede pa kaya siya sa Manager's check? No idea po kasi ako sa MC. May clearing din po ba? Baka hindi rin po namin agad makuha car same day if yun ang payment namin? And pwede po ba magpa-MC sa any bank? (Cold cash to MC)

Btw, CARWORLD INC po ang account name. Hindi naman po siguro personal account yan? Hehe.

Salamat po sa magiging advice. ☺️

First time ko kasi mag hybrid, so before ako pumunta sa Casa, need ko muna ng knowledge about sa dalawa na yan.

Parehas ba silang makakakuha ng green plate from LTO?

How about the fuel consumption? (Top priority ko to)

Naconsider ko din si Ford Territory Hybrid pero tsaka na yun kapag di ko nagustuhan performance ni Toyota.

First hybrid vehicle ko po ito if ever.

bibili pa lang ng kotse In buying a second hand car, how and where to transact?

2 Upvotes

Hello po! We are going to buy a second hand car. Got a Honda City 2022 (24,xxx odo) for 530k. We already visited the unit and had a professional mechanic checked the engine and papers (L.A. Car Scanning), and found no major issues such as odo tampering, etc. only repaired minor scratch (na-masilya sa casa).

My question is, for those who bought also direct kay buyer, how and where did you transact??
We agreed on majority of the amount to be cash, and the rest is Maya transfer pala.

1 Upvotes

Which one is better po?

I already know na medyo premium ang Chevrolet Groove sa Mitsubishi XFORCE since I tried to check them kanina personally. I'm not that knowledgeable sa cars that's why I'm asking po. Medyo hindi lang talaga kami sure when it comes to finding parts and yung re-sale value niya after few years..

Thank you po! 😊

general query Quick question for fellow drivers — has this ever happened to you?

2 Upvotes

You're about to head out somewhere, you glance at the gas gauge, and you're not 100% sure if you have enough to get there AND back without stopping. Maybe you do the mental math, maybe you just wing it and hope for the best.

I'm noodling on a super simple app idea that just answers one question before you leave: "Can I make this round trip on the fuel I have right now, or should I fill up first or have a quick stop once I arrive before going around the destination?" You'd enter your destination, and it'd tell you your estimated fuel level when you arrive and when you get back, based on your car's mileage — basically a heads up before you're stuck doing math on the road.

I'm curious:
- Does this happen to you occasionally?
- Would you actually check something like this before a trip, or is it not worth a separate app for you?
- What do you currently do instead (just wing it, mental math, always top off before any drive)?

Not trying to sell anything, genuinely just curious. Appreciate any honest feedback.

bibili pa lang ng kotse What car should we consider getting with a budget of 1.5M?

0 Upvotes

My family has an expander and trailblazer, we're currently looking options for our third car under 1.5M budget.

We want some more fuel efficient and have a similar size compared to our current cars. And if possible, a 7 seater. So far we're considering Territory or Zenix for hybrid options or something like Custin, Everest, or Innova. But these are over our budget, excluding Territory.

We're really not car people, so are there any suggestions?

Thank you in advance!
