Pajero fieldmaster or toyota innova

[babkalakal]

It been a long time since I've spent any considerable amount of time in a Pajero FM pero check mo space inside vs yung innova. I think mas ok ang space packaging ng innova at mas maluwag/comfortable sya.

Medyo bitin budget na yan kasi yung pajero na bibilhin need monpa rin thourough check-up bago gamitin. Hindi mo talaga masasabi na 100% in perfect working condition. You need at least P30K addt'l budget for repairs and tune-up. Usually palit pa lahat fluids just to be sure unlesa may recibo sila na mapakita from a shop na kaka-PMS lang ng sasakyan.

I suggest P500-600K budget for a gen 2.5 local pajero. Huwag na converted as much as possible.

the innova is practical.

Agree. Di mawawala sa uso at hindi maliliitin sa mga parking. Iba pag Pajero

I see... How much ang budget? Bear in mind that though both Pajero and Innova can seat 7, they will have very little cargo space left. Check out both personally to see if they will suit your needs. If you regularly seat 7 plus cargo, you may find yourself in need of a van.

Personally, I would of course prefer the Pajero for the timeless looks. Despite being a design that goes way back to the early 90s, it still won't look out of place on a hotel driveway. No problem with parts and maintenance. Most local units don't have 4WD though, so you won't be able to go very far off the beaten path despite all that ground clearance and AT tires. Old school diesel engine with no computer box means if you take care of it, it'll most likely still be running when the rest of the car gets eaten up by rust or till kingdom come whichever comes last.

IMHO the Innova is without doubt, a great household appliance. Whatever the Fieldmaster can do, it can most likely do better. Same engine and chassis as the same era Fortuner means rough roads, heavy loads and flashfloods are no problem. Smaller tires mean it won't cost you an arm and a leg to replace them. Smaller but more modern engine than the Pajero along with smaller tires and lighter weight means better fuel efficiency and more modification potential should you want to go down that route. 13 years after its introduction, parts would be just as easy to obtain as the Pajero, if not more. It's engine, being also found in the Fortuner, Hilux and Hiace for over a decade is probably the engine with the highest population in the country, and despite the stigma for some that CRDi's are finicky and costly to fix has more than proven its worth in every kind of duty. However, all of these do not hide the fact that it looks like an egg or a loaf of bread, depending on who you ask. [emoji23]

*Gti, Thank you for your views, opinion. I have the same similar question of choosing between the two vehicle when I happened to stumble on this thread. Dito sa amin probinsiya, kailangan mataas clearance ng sasakyan at 4x4 pag punta sa mga bukid, bundoks. Versatile. Marami parin kaming nakikitang tumatakbong mga pajero, mga JDM, galing Subic or Port Irene. Alaga lang sa maintenance, change oil tatagal.

Pajero FM 2.8 lalo na automatic, guzzler yan. 6km/l lang konsumo ng nagamit ko dati. Innova 2.5 auto kaya pa maka 8 or 9km/l, mas modern engine at magaan ang kaha. Pogi nga Pajero pero takaw naman sa diesel.

*Lakwatsero. Salamat po sa views, opinion from your own actual experience. Sa experience, meron po bang pajero model na mas matipid kaysa sa model FM 2.8 liter, automatic. Nagbabalak po kasi kaming kumuha ng pajero na manual pero may 4x4 mode. Thank you.

^How much is your budget?

FM 2.8 4x4 M/T are quite rare and often expensive in the used car market. Not to mention that most of them are heavily used/abused.

With Japan surplus, it is a case of swerte swerte with the quality of the conversion. With my converted Granvia, conversion quality was actually considered "decent enough" by various mechanics and still I coughed up over 120k on initial repairs (most notably in the suspension and aircon departments) and upgrades for it to pass my daily driver standards. Now though it is a daily driver and has clocked 17tkms since joining the garage in mid 2016.

Since you mentioned that 4x4 is a necessity, might I suggest the 1st gen Ford Everest. It is the 1st and last Everest with a 4x4 M/T variant.
