hehe i hear you architect, breaktime at the office, just a little editing sa tableta.....
TABLETA PICKUP CONCEPT:


...hehe, design is leaning towards the jeepney, grill makes a big impact i guess.

Foi, your movement toward the Jeepney theme is a MAJOR advancement to a very Pinoy and fabricable concept vehicle. Suddenly, it's Pinoy -- it has a visual connection to the PUJ, tapping into native automotive history. No need to wait until its uniqueness is verified. It's already BOTH Pinoy and unique. It's so WYSWYG and straightforward. Not contrived at all. Straightforward tends to be economical.

I can foresee that we do not have to explain why we tried hard to meet the style standards of Jags, Beemers, Mitsus and Ferraris ... and failed miserably. Tableta is capable of setting its own standards because it's beginning to speak its own style vocabulary. Like the PUJ, it invites a splash of colors, and provides generous surfaces for jeepney art.

It's cartoonic, awakening our attraction to the young, the simple, the cute.

I can already hear the kids telling their Dads, "Bilmoko!". If Dad can't afford, we can provide paper toys for them, like http://papertoys.com/cartoon-car.htm -- great promo.

I don't think dudes would mind driving their girlfriends in a sport variant. As it is, wala pa nga siyang mags e, guwapo na. The slightly longer engine bay made it a few more years older than its toddler-looking predecessors. Put in a Hemi and it's HOT!

And it looks so easy to build! Makes you feel like buying sheetmetal tomorrow.

yung mga vitamins po

We just have to make sure that vitamins lang talaga yan, ha.

Hindi kung anu-anong tableta. Who knows? This might just be the medicine the local auto industry needs.

There's just one problem (with apologies to architect and ogpro) -- precisely with its butt.
I take it that the character and name Tableta derives from the shape of its sides. It's a capsule, which explains the cylindrical drum front ... and rear end. I can imagine a cylindrical tailgate for the pickup, but there's a problem with the AUV variant

We are unanimous that the commuter/AUV variant should have a 5th door that will be subject to a high rate of use. It looks to me like the rear end needs to be parted, left from right. The challenge facing us is how to provide that fifth door without truncating the tablet-shaped sides. And then to do so with a decent and deliberate look.

Let's give it more time to evolve.
