guys, newbie lang po  

please help me decide on which vehicle to choose, mas ok sana yung feedback coming from vehicle owners themselves

escape xls vs gen 3 crv

maintenance cost
availability of spare parts
gas mileage
performance & drivability
resale value
overall feel & drive

medyo limited kasi funds and i want to maximize value for money considering the items above

thanks peeps and more power to AI

id go w/ the crv...

maintenance: only every 10000km, cost just the same as others..
gas mileage:mt 6-10km/L city-highway
performance: engine is good, nice to rev. ok ang handling, the suspension was a bit hard but still nice on highways(10 seater model)
resale: sold ours for less than two years...850K(2002)
overall: hard to part away from it...but we got another much nicer vehicle...

Correction lang po, its the gen-2 CR-V.  Wala pa pong gen-3.

To answer your query, its the CR-V over the Escape.

Yes. 3 liter. 200 Hp.

Mazda Tribute, with the same platform also shares the same engine but with 4x2 only.

Buy the CRV, better looks, updated technology, more powerful engine.  

The Escape is way too old already, under-powered pa. Takes too much downshifting during uphill trips.
