Hello Hon. Gazzuz. Please why is the AC of all 05 ford escapes problematic? I've hardly seen anyone driving with theirs working. An AC man once told me that it's because the compressor is situated at the lowest point on the engine but this doesn't make sense to me because if it were so, it would have been corrected in other cars but is so in the escape 2nd gen and 07 edge.
Sensei Gazzuz, please I await your nuggets of wisdom.

Car TalkRe: Innoson Motors Unveils IVM FOX (Photos) by bigboa: 10:07am On Aug 17, 2017
Eke40seven:
You think buying new cars come cheap. The spirit of Tokunbo and kabukabu will not kill us in Nigeria. Europe flood Nigeria with scraps and cars that have been banned on roads and we buy it here and flaunt it.
I will post pictures of second hand cars that are road worthy just close by. Then you will understand.
Sir, are you saying the Fox is in the class of either the VW or BMW you just put up? Why not compare like for like? The point is that they need to be realistic and price the product with the current situation in view. What's wrong with creating a budget car with 3 trim levels at ₦5m Max and offering it via a financing scheme? I think even PAN has similarly priced options and they are not yet being besieged by orders. That alone should signal that a change of strategy is needed. Finally, I think people would buy but as long as the brand is continuously priced similarly to established international brands, it's going to be a hard sell.

[quote author=AutoReportNG post=59547096]Whats your take on the price, design etc... I am sure their representive will be g;ad to have some feedback from here..]


I think the crossover is cool but they need to price the vehicle in line with the reality of the country now and not in $$$ because people will keep choosing the international brands if the product price is not attractive enough. As an example, would you rather buy this car over a clean Venza (or any brand in that price range)?
EducationRe: Jenifa's Diary English: A Project Topic In OAU (Photo) by bigboa: 8:56am On Aug 17, 2017
This is very good. It's about time we codified our version of pidgin English which has essentially become the unifying lingo in Nigeria (or Naija). The quicker this is done and standardised, the more we accentuate our commonalities while destroying the barriers of division. Well done to the author.

PoliticsRe: Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway Sango Otta Flooded by bigboa: 6:43pm On Jul 22, 2017
Not a new thing. It happens every year during the rains. Used to live in the area. The area is flood prone. In fact, I know some houses that have permanent bridges cos the compound gets flooded often.
PropertiesRe: Cement Manufacturers Agree To Crash Price –rabiu by bigboa: 1:46pm On Jul 09, 2017
This news is fake. I work with one of the cement producers and the reality is that there will be no crash in the immediate future; maybe a slight drop. BUA has a very small market share compared to the big 2 and a larger overhead cost cos CCNN runs on LPFO and not coal or gas. Besides, the people who really determine the retail price are the distributors so even if the producers crashed the price to N1, the distributors would just balance demand and supply to their advantage.

TravelRe: One Chance Robbery: 7 Safety Tips by bigboa: 6:57am On Apr 14, 2017
If you ever get caught in one chance situation, please don't struggle with them as that could be disastrous. I've had the 'pleasure' of being 'hosted' by these people twice while an undergrad moving from Yaba to Ikeja. The first time, only 2 of us out of a bus of 10 people were not in the 'game' while the second time, it was basically a mass robbery of a big bus. During the first incident, my co-guest had his manhood and other parts vigorously vibrated for daring to struggle and bite on of our hosts. The best thing is avoidance. One chance busses usually have a few signs:
1. People (especially men) positioned strategically at the corners.
2. Even if the bus is empty, the front seat is not available.
3. The driver tends not to engage the passengers.
Above all, one should be sensitive to cues and gut feelings. Both times I was hosted, I was the first person to board the bus so, the fact that the bus was empty means nothing. Also, I have perceived I was in such a situation at other times but our hosts didn't strike probably because there didn't seem to be any high value targets on board or maybe the situation wasn't​just right for them.
NB. During my second session, I calmly told my assailant that I wanted to remove my sim card as I had just retrieved it. He handed me back my phone, I did what I had to do and moved on with my life. Please don't struggle with them.

Technology MarketRe: Which Android TV Box Is Best For Use In Nigeria by bigboa: 11:40pm On Feb 28, 2017
Ativ:
Remix mini does not have a remote control. What NAS do you use and how do you get files onto it?
Yeah but you can use an air mouse/keyboard combo (I had to buy 1 as the remote is horrible for data entry). I have a WD My net central n900 2tb. Its not a true NAS in the real sense of it but it does everything a NAS can do except raid. It also allows me to combine my router and storage. I still think the remix mini is your best bet. I recommended it to a friend and Hes enjoying it. Also, all of them are the same, just have different launchers except for the boxes with terrestial input. You will however be hard pressed to get a post 2015 box with such as wire cuttingis all the rage.
Technology MarketRe: Which Android TV Box Is Best For Use In Nigeria by bigboa: 10:13pm On Feb 28, 2017
I have had K iii since last year and its cool for streaming from my NAS; don't really do live streaming. Just buy remix mini off konga. Its about 18k. You can then install Kodi, Mobdro and SyblaTV for live streaming and ES Explorer and MX Player for local content.

Car TalkRe: Which Is Better? Automatic Transmission Or Manual Transmission by bigboa: 12:05pm On Jan 21, 2017
Dear OP, you should buy one based on your expertise and driving style imho. If you just like to get from point A to point B with minimal fuss (like me), Auto shifter please. If you love engaged driving, stunts and a feeling of total control, then get a manual shifter. Also, I think this is kinda unnecessary (the prevarication) because a lot of modern auto shifters are steptronic ie you can change to manual mode and shift the gears yourself rather than rely on the cars computer.
