Let's wait for the competion from Isuzu. Their NKR truck platform is a likely candidate for the Beep.

I was talking to a jeepney driver friend and he mentioned to me that the BEEP was presented to them in a meeting with some "JODA" folks. Unfortunately, old habits and taste are hard to break. According to him, they would rather prefer something like this:

Its going to be a tough sell for the Beep.

Mahirap pag biglang break, wala kang mahawakan unlike sa jeep, mahirap kalungin ang mga bata kaya di na puede libre sa kalong. Di ka rin makasabit dito pag nagmamadali ka, madali pa holdapi kasi isa lang ang pintuan, hehehe...

The problem is not the vehicle. The problem is the system.

Looks like LRT to me...
But it's better than Jeepneys.

yes! if:

- fully functional ang a/c palagi, otherwise hanggang singit mo may pawis
- may limit sa passenger kung hindi ang hirap bumaba dyan pag puno ng nakatayong pasahero sa gitna, habol sa boundary ika nga..
- sa major road lang sya kasi pag maliit ang kalsada traffic ang mangyari everytime na may bababa.
- loud music should not allowed

for me it is simply a re-designed mini-bus, good alternative for jeepney but considering our culture and road condition it can't replace the good old jeepney lalo na yung mga patok na habol ng mga estudyante dahil sa kumakalabog na music, and yung mga nakalinya sa palengke na may mga paninda, mangamoy isda tayo, and para sa mga magtataho,

I prefer an a/c type jeepney with brand-new engine.

sana nag re-design sila from the jeep itself... yung BEEP kasi is more of a redesigned mini bus..

sana yung porma jeep pa din with a taste of SUV yung front tapos lagyan nila ng entrance sa right side tapos exit yung likod para pag sa loading unloading area hindi magsasalubong yung papasok at baba.. dapat din lahat nakaupo walang nakatayo.. with option for open window or fully aircon
