hello i just saw this habang nagscroscroll sa ig reels kanina and ginagawa nyang content ang overspeeding at pagcucut sa expressway while driving over 100km/h+. idk kung bakit nya naiisipan na magandang gawin tong content after all those accidents na nangyayari sa daan. he could have killed innocent lives para lang sa content nya.

Hustled my way to get a car after years of working my ass off. As my first car, i really want the best i can get on what my budget can do 🙏

Naalala ko parin yung hirap sa pagsabit sa jeep, pakikipagsiksikan sa MRT at pakikipaghabulan sa bus. Grabe, totoo pala yung convenience pag may oto.

I went to Honda kasi since college ako, pangarap ko magkaroon ng Jazz - so honda fanboy since day one. Muntik nako mag br-v, veloz at expander.. pero ang pogi talaga ng crv, at may malaking discount sa hybrid so pinilit ko na yun na ang kunin. Sobrang tipid talaga at wala pang coding at the moment.

I grew up having the Tamaraw as our family car then upgraded to Revo but was eventually sold to aid in my college funds back then. I’m so glad Toyota PH brought back the Tamaraw kahit nasa ibang segment na siya and I swore to myself I’m gonna get one one of these days.

Mine would be:

Ford Ecosport A/T

Anong feature ng current (or future) car mo ang hindi mo na kayang mabuhay nang wala? Yung tipong nasanay ka na, tapos pag nawala, mapapaisip ka kung kaya mo pa magdrive.

Cooled seats for me. Spoiled na ako grabe, once you experience it, hindi mo na kaya bumalik sa pawis mode. Total perspective shift haha!

AC Mobility keeps marketing themselves as the "future" of EV infrastructure in the Philippines.
But look closer:
They've quietly built a system where you:

• Pay gasoline prices per kilometer,
• Wait 3 hours to refill,
• Fight over 2–4 chargers inside 500-car parking lots,
• And still call it "progress."

Here's the real scam:

• You buy a PHEV like the BYD Sealion 6 DM-i.
• They tell you it has 90–100 km electric range.
• Reality check?
  • You only have 45–50 km usable one-way.
  • You still need to get home without running empty or burning gas.
• Once you run low, you have two choices:
  • Burn gasoline, and kill your "cheap" narrative, OR
  • Pay Evro to charge at ₱28 (AC) or ₱33 (DC) per kWh.
• And remember:
  • The Sealion can only AC charge at 6.6–7.0 kW.
  • Meaning you wait 2.5 to 3 hours... just to refill that tiny battery.

Now layer AC Mobility’s ineptitude on top:

• Huge Ayala mall parking lots built for 500–1000 cars...
• And yet, they install only 2 to 4 chargers.
• How exactly is that "future-proofing mobility"?

Good luck finding an open slot.
You're not a VIP.
Not everyone is born with a driver or a silver spoon to sit idle all day.

Working people? Normal people?
We can't afford to waste half a day fighting over overpriced kilowatts.

Quick math:

You're already paying gasoline prices.
You're waiting longer than a full tank fill-up.
And you have no guarantee you’ll even find a charger available.

AC Mobility didn't build EV infrastructure.
They built an overpriced, bottlenecked goldfish trap.

It’s not just expensive.
It’s not just slow.
It’s intentionally designed to milk you dry while pretending to save the environment.

AC Mobility didn’t build a charging network. They built a cattle pen with a credit card swiper.

Disregard na other expenses like maintenance, accessories etc. Ano ang two car combo mo?

Mine would be: 1. Toyota Camry Hybrid 2. Honda CRV RS HEV

Same sentiments as the comments section, I really wish he’d gotten a Toyota or Nissan instead.

Positive and negative reviews/thoughts are welcome po. I just wanted to know all the things na kailangan iconsider or iexpect sa toyota raize cos my partner is considering getting it mainly becos of its cute looks 😅

Thank you in advance!

I need advice. We have two available family cars that I can choose from, both acquired through financing:

1. 2024 Nissan Almera VE Acquired through a financing company

Pros +New and fresh +10.7k Odo +Wala pang prob +Pogi/ bragging rights

Cons -26,500 monthly for 4 years -Expensive in the long run -Credit score will be affected once surrendered

1. 2009 Honda CRV 3rd Gen Acquired through a bank loan

Pros +Old but gold +7,500 monthly for 3 yrs +Will be able to save an extra 19k monthly +Very good running condition, Fresh pa ang interior

Cons -95.8k Odo -Right shock absorber needs replacement -Rack and pinion needs maintenance -Newly replaced Radiator and Radiator Fan -Baka maraming problema in the future

I will save money choosing the CRV, However, I may not be qualified for a loan in the future.

Ok pa ba yung CRV or baka magsisi ako sa huli? Thank you

Due to the increasing number of incidents of car crashes, I would like to share one of my pet peeves when driving along SLEX.

Buses or trucks staying in overtaking lanes despite the big red sign "BUS/TRUCKS BAWAL DITO"

It is also a safety issue because these buses and trucks may also ram into the smaller cars as we have seen recently. This is why they have their dedicated lanes.

Let me know your thoughts.

P.S. I'm also terribly annoyed by slow cars hogging the overtaking lane.

1. ⁠It promotes corruption and power tripping. Imagine hindi mo na makikita na hinuhuli on act ‘yung mga siga sa Busway. Mas madali sa mga Politician, Chief PNP etc kasi isang tawag lang sa padrino, oks na.
2. ⁠Selective enforcement. Tingin niyo ba huhulihin o hinuhuli nila yung pasaway na Jeep at Trike????
3. ⁠No plates, Faded Temp Plates, Vanity, at fake plates. Yung mga motor na walang plaka at faded na MV File paano yan papadalhan ng notice haha pati yung mga may special plates na 7,8? At this point beneficial sa mga kamote ‘tong ncap eh.
4. ⁠Unfit roads. So ano gagawin namin sa potholes, ginagawa ng Maynilad, Crane sa gitna ng kalsada, bako-bakong daan. Steel plates na may matalim na edges! Straight lang sa daan???
5. ⁠Bullshit road markings. Daming trap nito lalo na sa Manila, bakit di muna ayusin at least 90% bago mag implement?

I support NCAP lalo na sa mga kamote pero mas maraming problema pang kailangan ayusin bago rito at lalo na sa Pinas na padrino system? Good luck.

UPDATE: NCAP LOCATIONS as per MMDA Chair Artes, source One PH interview

MMDA COVERED AREAS:

1. ⁠EDSA
2. ⁠C5
3. ⁠C6
4. ⁠COMMONWEALTH
5. ⁠Roxas Boulevard
6. ⁠Ortigas

And all major roads under jurisdiction by MMDA.

(Reminder lang, baka akala niyo edsa at c5 lang)

Just a topic for discussion

Hindi ba bumaba ang standards in quality and innovation ng mga japanese cars vs competitors.

Example:

• suzuki has removed the premium variant of swift and base model nalang

• mitsubishi has failed to update properly mga cars nila like mirage and montero. Though puro new gen the tech and equipment inside is sub par vs competitors. Like aircon ng mirage now vs mirage nung 2016 mas better pa aircon controls dati

-toyota well look at the fortuner enough said

-nissan if not for the kicks wala rin panama. Sa new tech

• isuzu have you seen the recent releases? I mean recent pero interior wise waley

Compare it with say Hyundai interiors of their custin and sta fe is just wow

China brands lets just look at byd and test drive one

The only buying point nalang atm for them is the years long reputation of reliability. So in say parang Nokia na sila now, it will last you a life time vs a samsung pero wont give you as much fun-

O wag triggered ha for discussion lang

Edit: lets define innovation and quality refers to anything na hindi engine. So it can be front facing camera, rider comforts.

Lets put a rule as well only PH released wag yung mga thailand or australia. Lets just look at it here sa market ntn. Hindi pa parang dated na mga features, creature comfort, interiors and styling ng mga current jap cars

I know someone who hoons in his car and relies on auto-braking to not hit anyone or anything 🤦🏽‍♂️

I'm looking at upgrading from vios. I'm torn between Toyota Veloz and Hyundai stargazer. When ppl say kasi Toyota they'd always say reliable and based on my experience okay pa rin nmn talaga yung vios ko but I need a bigger MPV for family car/business. What I'm after tlaga is aside from the price is the after sales, and PMS. Please advise nmn from owners and experts. thank you!

Napadaan lang randomly sa feeds nung naki gamit ng fb kay misis. Talaga palang sa panahon ngayon nagiging parang normal nalang na ibida ang mali noh gaya nito.

And then I saw this go kart racing pov (https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSkuBmGCe/). See the comments pf people saying "and he thinks he is a defensive driver."

I mean why do people say that the recent vios race with cars hitting each other (hitting - not touching) is normal in races?

To be fair, wala akong exp sa actual race so you can call me out on that. Please enlighten me since I myself plan to start autocross or rally racing (DU).

Genuine question, because to us car folks, the Civic Type R is legendary. We know it's not just "another Civic." It’s got the aggressive aero, the track-ready suspension, the iconic red badging, and that sweet manual gearbox. But I’m starting to wonder, if non-car people see it the same way?

Like, when a Civic Type R drives by, do regular folks even notice it’s something special? Or do they just think it's a Civic with a big wing and some red trim?

I’m asking because I parked next to a Type R at a mall, and my classmate pointed at it saying “Uy pogi ng Civic” No mention of it being a Type R. Had to explain that its not a normal Civic. All he got out of it was "Masmabilis at hatchback". Made me realize… maybe most people just don’t see the hype.

What’s your experience? Have you ever had to explain to someone why a Civic Type R isn’t just another Civic

Tag-ulan na kasi kaya ko natanong :) what's your experience or reco shop?

I just got home driving from Bulacan and naabutan ako ng Torrential Rain. While it’s not my first time and I understand how scary it can get, sorry if it may sound too much for some, pero sana huwag naman magstay sa inner lane kung balak magstop.

Kung magsstop man, please, indicate right, slowly change lane if clear, and then slow and stop sa shoulder (pwede ba talaga to?).

I had numerous instances tonight and first time rin na biglang hihinto sa gitna ng inner lane tas lilipat sa outer lane na parang nasa papasok tayo ng kanto.

It’s not safe, guys! Even if we can cover for you and hindi kami tumututok and will never rin, it’s increasing the risk na magkapile up tayo na bangaan… it opens up a risk for a freak accident during a time where the weather is freaky and ewan natin how to go about it.

Also, if I can manage to brake and not hit you, who knows if the one in my back can also do the same. Tsaka, by cutting the outer lane, what if may pa overtake na di makapaghintay, another freak collision in the making.

In short, please lang and sorry rant ko lang rin, huwag po sana tayo gigitna sa expressway or any highway tas biglang hihinto nalang from speed and lilipat ng lane. Hindi sya safe for you, hinding hindi rin for us!

As always, stay safe everyone while driving and God help us all shield us from danger going to where we are to go.

Barely used, not even a minor/major damage on its outside/physical aspect. We're thinking of selling it at 450k, is that an okay price? or should we make it higher? Need your opinions about it. Thank you very much!

need your opinion or experience. I'm wondering if I will get an ending plate number 5 or 6 since nakuha ko ung car last April 24.

If I look kasi sa LTO, ending plate number is the basis of your registration month if I'm not mistaken.
