Yun nga lang pag-black. Talagang matrabaho at magastos pag-maintain. Pero I'm happy with it. Charge to maintenance cost na lang din.

I'm from south, Cavite bout you?

Sir, just how bouncy is it? I'm currently on the fence between the Fortuner and the Montero but if this is really true and noticeable, then it just might be a deal breaker for me....

Before I bought mine, sumakay muna ako sa 2008 Fort just to feel the ride. Then when I test drove the 2013 model, noticeable yung improvement nung ride. And besides, I'm buying an SUV. So for me hindi ko siya hinahanapan ng car-like feel. Now, parang mas gusto ko na yung ride niya kesa sa car. Merely because araw-araw mo ba naman gamit eh. Nag-adapt na yung katawan ko haha.

Then you are always taking the CAVITEX route. Puwede pala kita ma-meet pag may byahe ka uli to Ternate.

Puwede kita i-meet sa Tejero bro. Dun ka naman babagsak eh from Cavitex. Going to Ternate dadaan ka talaga ng Gen. Trias Tanza Naic.

Ilan taon na ako naka fort ok lang para sakin di naman matatag, wala din naman nag rereklamo sa mga anak ko kung san san ko na nadala to pati Sagada, all stock fort ko, wag lang sa 3rd row matagtag daw doon sabi anak ko.

May strada din ako halos same platform ng Montero salitan ko sila ginagamit pero I use the fort more often matic kasi. Kung sa tagtag medyo mas matagtag ang fort kaya lang mas may sway ang strada lalo na sa cornering kaya mukang taobin ang strada at monty. Balak ko nga palitan ng mas matigas na spring yung strada naka offroad setup narin pati

Ramdam yung bounce every expansion gaps sa mga cemented roads sir. I was expecting na mas maganda ride ng new Fort kesa sa Montero namin. Kala ko nga nung una over inflated lang yung tires or something pero 30psi lang.

Yun lang kaya Gas Fort kinuha namin kasi pangit nga service ng mga Mitsu Casa, parating CEL yung montero namin although dami ng pinalitan Gas tank...etc CEL pa din parati hanggang mag expire na warranty CEL pa din. Compared sa Montero mas madaling i maneuver yung Fort and mas maganda interior. Also planning to perform 10k pms sa Gas Fort, gagamit na lang ako ng Royal Purple oil filter and RP oil. Kakatamad na kasi mag pa PMS every 5k kms pag diesel engine.

Pardom me for comparing a Camry to an SUV with that said im not really sure that there's any SUV out there without consiradable bounce in its ride unless you upgrade your suspension

Drove a montero sport(2012) for about 2 mos before getting my Fortuner(2013) honestly parehong matagtag (slight edge to fortuner ) naman mas malakas lang hatak ng fort saka mas maluwag ang loob kaya yun ang pinili ko

* when i say slight edge to Fortuner meaning mas masarap ang ride ng fort specially sa long drives

Sorry about that. Didn't intend to sound "masungit". I really appreciate all the inputs here. You're right that I won't find car-level riding comfort in SUVs. The nearest would probably be if I get a Rav4 or a CRV, but then that won't have the seating capacity that I'm looking for. I heard that the Trailblazer has good riding comfort but I'm still hoping they come out with a 4x2 A/T.

Bottom line - I think it would be best if I test drive both again myself so that I can decide. But all the inputs and comments here continue to be welcome. Thanks again!
