Well i offroad alot on my 80 series before doc. The itch is still there sa fortuner ko kahit 4x2 na lang [emoji28][emoji28][emoji28]

Anyways the AT tires at more puncture resistant din po vs HT tires but trade off talaga is more noise and less fuel economy.

Ah good reviews naman sa AT tires nila? My dilemma lang kasi is spend now for affordablw tires na di sikat or spend x4 the price for BFGs na 60k for 4.

Parang di ko majustify soending that much for tires.

Just to share. I put Goodride tires on my Fort 3 years ago. They're still good.

I didnt get the goodrides at the time kasi nag offer friend ko kumho kl71s MT 285/75/16 so thats what i ended up with. Hassle lang directional tire sya but very good with grip but wears fast.

Btw i bought the radar renegade RT+ this morning. Hehehe

The left are the stock Bridgestone dueler ATs mounted on the rim while the right side is the Radar Renegade RT+ unmounted. Oversize sya, looks like kasize na nya 265/70r17 instead of 265/65/17.

stance looks better and it filled the wheel well better.

As advised ng SA, moist lang daw yun although picture pa lang pinadala ko but planning to bring it back sa casa. May naka experience na ba ng napalitan yun shocks then nasira ulit yun pinalit? Thanks.

I hear this a lot may problem b tlga rear shocks ng fort? Dapat check if basa ang shox and that tells if may leak right?

Anyone who either owns or owned it can tell me about its avg maintenance cost, reliability, ride quality, fuel efficiency?

I am looking for a 2.7L 4-cyl for max upto 60kms done.

What are your thoughts? Need it mainly for comfortable commute between home and work. UAQ to Dubai. And to it not give me headaches or break my bank.

I have been driving a Mitsubishi Lancer 1.3L 2009 model for solid 10 years now and it's time to upgrade.

Also if someone could tell me the entire process of getting a used car? What are the paper work involved? Whom will I be going to and for what? What is the cost banking wise? If let's say the car set me back 60K AED and I gave 5K as down-payment (can I even do that?) how much will the bank charge as interest suppose its for 60 months? I am with emirates nbd. And I technically don't know **** about buying a car here is because 10 years back my dad got me that 1.3L Lancer and I wasn't involved in the process.

Initially thought getting the same specifically gas but when i crunched the numbers the savings is only upon purchase since updfront cheaper ang gas sa diesel but after about 2 to 3 yrs depending on usage the cost will be offset and diesel is definitely cheaper in the long run. Mileage is the same but disel is about php 10/L cheaper. Maintenance is almost the same in the long run (gas has spark plugs while diesel doesnt but some.more maintenance on diesel to keep it clean)

Bank paper works are the same (ID, financial docs, prood of residence, etc) but note interest is higher (almost double if in not mistaken) you can check bdo loan calculator websitr to get an idea. DP is the same minimim 20% i think
