2005 camry V6.

Go for the camry, with the 3.0L V6 (1mz-fe). Avoid the 2.4L (2Az-Fe), it has a factory flaw which causes overheating without warning in addition to being notorious for burning oil. Stay away from the 4cyl for peace of mind. Mine clocked 4yrs in December and is presently almost at 200k miles with No check engine light. I left lagos with a full tank of fuel and arrived in owerri with a quarter tank while maintaining an average speed of 85kph with cruise control and the ac at its lowest setting (this result has been consistent-this is my 5th time with the same outcome). The powertrain is very reliable- it’s just the suspension that occasionally has challenges because of our bad roads. Find a Nigerian used V6 that wasn’t abused. I use Hardex gold 5w 30 on mine and it performs perfectly.

2013 crv for me, although if you love more power you can pick the RAV4 V6 sepcs,mind you CRV only comes in 4 cylinders,how ever the 2013 CRV wins it for me,fuel economy it's roughly similar with the CRV slightly edging it out,driving experience CRV also wins it for me,I've driven both before I will pick the 2013 CRV over the 2010 Rav4 EASILY SELF and the CRV is a newer generation that runs from 2012-2016. So summary

Functionality-CRV by far self
Maintenance-Roughly similar
Performance options-RAV4
But they are all good rides.

dadabashua1:
very very solid Sir,one of the BEST YOU CAN BUY BRO.

it's simple na, he grew up all his life hearing how people that has NEVER used Honda in their lives talks about how bad the brand is,yet year in year out makes the list of some of the best car brand on earth,same reason Nigeria remain underdeveloped,we work with the crowd mentality,every one is too lazy in investing time and energy in research to find out the truth and lies about every topic,trust me if you probe am further it will be the CRV leg de commot...lol na today? That CRV is one of the BEST 4 cylinders SUV on the roads,the ONLY thing the Pontiac can have over the CRV is fuel economy,but na insult self comparing it with the vibe,it will be an even comparison with RAV4... but what do I know, Nigerians will NEVER change sad reality. P.S a bad Honda according to Nigerians has hit 1M 34k miles on original engine and transmission...Honda na yeye brand truly e no de gree pack up.

I was one of those stereotypes who felt Toyota was all in all untill just recently when I began to understand the scam. Sold my Toyota recently and bought a 2013 CR V. Not a single regret. Best car I've ever owned so far.

Don't misunderstand me, Toyota's make very good cars, but Honda's are equally magnificent.... maybe even more

Check Meis.ter's screenshot price list I showed you yesterday. For example the Mi 10T Pro is close but there are few compromises here and there. One has a better screen, more battery, slightly lower performance and better camera. That's why I emphasized on your preferences yesterday.

****I guess you mean which phone in the Mi Series is comparable to Poco F3?

atheistandproud:
I don't understand this question to be honest

😭😭😭😭

Xiaomi should come and refund me 11k.

atheistandproud:
I'm guessing that's the 3/32GB 🤔

There was never a time when phones were AFFORDABLE. Unless you're talking about entry level trash like the Tecno P5 or Samsung Galaxy J1.

The Infinix Zero 6 in 2018/19 with SD636 sold for 120K. If you adjust for inflation using 20%, that's almost 200k for a lower Midrange phone. The Samsung Galaxy A30 with Exynos 7904 sold for 90k which is around 160-170k today.

Phones were never cheap. It was Xiaomi that crashed the prices of good phones and that's why we loved them. They didn't only crash it, they taught us how to read phones specs and spot good phones. This was so that we could know what they were giving us on the cheap.

RN7, SD660, 48MP, FHD LCD and 18W for 66k vs Zero 6, SD636, 12MP, FHD LCD and 10W for 120k

See the difference?

I'm tired of trying to educate people about that brand. I've been doing it for the last 4 years and they keep refusing to learn. So I don leave them.

Anyone that buys Helio G85 for 177k deserves it.

micxwell:
Water commot for your eye 🤣🤣🤣. Na because you sabi read specs o. In the past I was obsessed with tearing nylon off my phones and laptops myself. I bought 3 foreign used laptops last year and there was no obvious dent on them. My mind changed o.
Na older flagships go dey do am now.

On LG v60 mandate we stand. All round winner. Price, performance, size, battery....

micxwell:
Your preferences is key here. If performance is far more important to you, Poco F3 is best.

micxwell:
Alright bro 👌

@dasanchez1 See all my Oga's comments. Kindly take advantage of these deals 🤝

micxwell:
I don't know what your preferences are but Open box Google Pixel 5, 5a fits that budget. I got an open box Pixel 5a a month ago and it's actually very nice. Phone was new, 179k.

Check the post below. He has the same budget as yours.


Check Meister's ads as well, his deals are good.
