Mga pinoy kasi yabang ang alam. Karamihan bibili ng SUV pero hindi naman ginagamit ang utility function. Magrereklamo na puros hard plastics daw pero hindi nila alam na may purpose yun. Yung iba iyayabang ang paper specs, hindi naman alam na sobrang bigat pala nung SUV na nabili. Dyan magaling karamihan ng pinoy, magyabang at manindak. Iindahin ang china made tires, ipagpapalit ang oem tires. Para lang maigulong ang aftermarket 20's na binili. Hehehe.

Is that wrong? I don't find using SUVs as a status symbol any less wrong than people who can't drive a sports car fast.
And it's not only in the Philippines. Take a look at the Land Cruiser. What was designed as a rugged workhorse evolved into a luxury SUV (still with offroad capabilities) because that's what the market wanted.
Pickups have also followed the same route, and for these PPVs, the market responds positively to big SUVs with rugged frames but comfortable rides and plush interiors. Of course, PPV's won't be as comfy as a car-based crossover, but they've improved leaps and bounds.
Comparing AU to the PH is also quite unfair. That's a first-world country where people who want luxury can oftentimes afford a luxury SUV. In the Philippines, even a lowly Fortuner is already an expensive car for most, and Filipinos would want a do-it-all car since they can't really afford having different cars for different purposes.
And for that reason, PPVs are the best-selling vehicles in the country north of 1M because they're jacks of all trades. Not as luxurious as a Camry, not as rugged as a Hilux, not as spacious as a Hiace, not as quick as an 86, but a bit of all rolled into one.

Shall we agree with the rest of your statement except for the fact that I didn't say its wrong? I find it amusing pa nga bro. Its a fact but not prohibited. To each his own. Para lang yang pagkabit ng sangkatutak na chrome parts at badge na 4x4 sa low rider pickup trucks.

January 30th, 2016 08:17 PM #246thats why nag post nga ako nung acceleration comparo nung mga suv's na yan kasi ung iba basta nakita sa paper spec na mas mataas ung power figure nung isa eh mag conclude na agad na mas malakas na. and i know d lang naman power ang basehan kundi ung overall features nung sasakyan. pero for me mas prefer ko ung overall perfomance nung sasakyan kasi most of the time ako ung driver

Yung iba nga eh nakahawak lang ng brochure, akala mo nabili na.
Anyway BTT, I don't see anything wrong with comparing Australian comparos with PHL comparos. As I've said, these are utility vehicles and there are people out there who use it as such. Tama naman na hindi lang dapat puros pagandahan ng sounds at rims ang comparos. These products should be tested as such. Siguro dapat mag level up din ang local media at ang mga manufacturers.
Pero sa mga mayayabang na pinoy who use this as status symbols, okay na siguro ang paper specs.

January 30th, 2016 10:41 PM #248Yung ibang pinoy kasi pag nakakita ng pickup na sobra linis at equipped with bling blings eh sinasabi na sana hindi na lang sya nag pickup dahil it defeats the purpose of having one, pero para sakin ok lang pera nya naman yun and as long as hindi ako naoffend nung tao like sinilaw ako ng led bar etc.
