    Practically speaking, get the Santa Fe. And then again, the top of the line variant will not let you down in the presence of premium cars nor in the presence of fast cars. Not to mention the excellent fuel efficiency. This means you get to have your cake and eat it too.

    Sure the 2.0 Ecoboost Explorer is touted to be fuel efficient, but in the end it is still a 2.0L gasoline powered engine, and those are not known to be thrifty. And if you nail the throttle the turbo would be spinning and it'll consume premium gasoline in huge gulps. Not so with the diesel SF.

    300k price difference between the SF and Explorer also means you can further upgrade/accessorize/modify the SF till its a match or more for the Explorer in most possible aspects.

    Ha! may 2.0 explorer na ba? Alam ko 3.5 yan baka di makaakyat yan sa laki ng body ng explorer...

    Well I'd choose explorer, ang layo ng arrive nya sa santafe... pag pinarada mo side by side yung santafe parang general manager ng isang company while the other is the owner.

    Sa Dami ng burloloy nyan explorer, that car is a lover is not a fighter. pano pa kaya pag nkabili ako ako ng SorentoR na M/t bare, no sidesteps, no roofrails, not even mudguards. Sa VGT SF Lang no match na sya, pano pa kaya sa E-VGT. Pampapogi n LNG kse, eh kaya Lang ang tanong pano pag baba sa sasakyan, usually nakikita ko sporting expensive cars eh wearing machine-washed loose clothes at mataba - all the rich food can buy.

    Kaya Madaming cougars ngaun na asawa ng owner pinagnanasahan ang fit and fighter managers nila, Minsan nga kargador body driver - sinisimplehan pa.

    Hindi naman mabigat ang borloloy eh. Wala pang 50 kg nadadagdag nun on the average.

    Kaya mabilis yung SF mo, kasi fit ka. 50 kg lighter na kagad yung SF. Parang Santa Fe Superlegerra kumbaga.
