Welcome to all owners of Toyota Fortuner [ARCHIVED]

[Gyro_27]

same story last March 2009 we went to subic (SCLEX) with my wife and daughter speed ko 180kph parang wala lng then tinignan ko ung RPM ko pwede pa dagdagan,,kaso nkakatakot hehehe,, ok naman ung 2009 fort suspension sa city driving kc na nsabibi ko na medyo matagtag nung pumunta ako ng mindoro San Jose via roro grabe kasi daan dun almost 80% ng byahe ko start ng mindoro ay rough road na...

Question lang to Fortuner owners. Yung Variable Nozzle Turbo ba na nakakabit sa 3.0 D-4D nyo is equivalent to the VGT tech na rin? I did some googling and found out they were synonymous pati dun sa isa pang name niya na Variable Turbine Geometry (binaliktad lang no?) pero kung ganun, ibigsabihin ang pagkatune lang ng Toyota sa engine nito ang result kung bakit mababa ang hp and torque ratings compared to Hyundai CRDI tech? Napaisip lang kasi ako na yung mga bagong engine release nila, ang gagawin lang eh itutune yung makina para mas malakas to compete with the newer engines of other brands.

Mag test drive ka na lang ng Fortuner and ng MS and idaan mo sa mga lubak para makita mo yung difference. You may also want to check various forums under Mitsubishi cars kasi meron mga concerns about the MS na nakasulat doon .

sorry guys medyo naconfuse ko kayo i already owned a fortuner new look and ang layo ng ride nya sa dati kong car na 01 trooper...im thinkin of selling it na sana to replace it with montero sport...tama c auto_fanatic i really need to test drive the ms myself...ang ayaw ko lang talaga sa fortuner is yung ride nya masyado syang matalbog...ang MS ganun din b?

Hi, Triggerman.

The Fortuner's architecture is truck-based and so, it is expected na matagtag sya. The MS is truck-based as well - although the ride may be softer than the Fort, still baka di pa din as good as your former Trooper. It will be a good idea for you to do a test-drive muna.

You may want to try the Hyundai Santa-Fe. I understand that it's design is car-based kaya baka comparable sya sa Trooper mo.

As for your Fort - check you tire pressure and try 28 for all tires - observe if there is a difference.

Good luck!

I also owned facelifted fort matagtag nga pero di naman gaano, I've been to sagada via banawe, the road was teribble pero di naman kami nahilo including my family seated in first and second row, except yung maid ko na nasa 3rd row medyo nahilo, I dont know kung di sanay sa zigzag.

I dont advice you to sell it now malaki depreciation nyan 20 - 25% off, para kang nagtapon ng 300k then ipapalit mo sa ms, mababa resale value because of mitsubishi badge.

Kaya yan advise ko sa taong bibili ng Fortuner. Sit in the 3rd row let the agent drive and feel for yourself the tagtag. Kasi kung sa driver seat ka nakaupo or sa front passenger seat di mo makikita ang tunay na tagtag ng Fortuner.

di kaya magtaka yung Sales Agent, lalo na pag mag-isa ka lang for the test drive, na sa third row ka uupo? hahahaha heheheheh. siguro takang taka yung SA and baka mag-isip pa na ang weird nitong potential buyer na gusto sa third row gustong umupo for the test drive...........

[tidus1203]

Sabihin mo sa kanya, boss daan tayo sa mga malulubak na kalsada o kaya sa mga maraming humps Para pag nagsuka ka alam na nya kung bibili ka or hindi!
