Since we acquired it in March 2017, our 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe LS has never failed us. Its 4.8-liter Vortec V8 engine starts up immediately – rain or shine. It starts right up even if we store it for a couple of weeks, especially when we get busy driving other vehicles like our Long Term Test 2016 Suzuki Ciaz or other ...

In April 2016, we accepted a used 1992 Mitsubishi Galant Super Saloon MPI from one of our media colleagues as a direct trade for one of our 250cc motorcycles.

It was 1978 and I was a freshman in high school. My close friend Nollette Samson and I were being driven home from school by his uncle in a white Mitsubishi Celeste 1600 ST that they bought brand-new for P62,000 just a year ago. I really liked its sporty styling and my young impressionable mind thought that it was the ...

Most numerologists love the number “8” because it sounds almost like how the Chinese pronounce the word “luck”. Thus, most Chinese, and even those Filipinos with a small amount of Chinese blood in their veins, consider the number “8” as a very special and very lucky number. The 8th running of the JSK Auto Fun Run, which was held last ...

As mentioned in the previous story, we acquired a 116,413-kilometer 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe LS in March 2017. It came with a 4.8-liter Vortec V8 engine, 4-speed automatic transmission, and a sagging front suspension with the front left side leaned low and the wheel camber a bit off. We replaced the two front wheel hubs after the left one started making ...

In March 2017, we acquired a used 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe LS with a 4.8-liter Vortec V8 engine, 4-speed automatic transmission, and 116,413 kilometers on the odometer.

Since it was a 15-year-old vehicle, we expected problems to come ...
