Technology MarketRe: I Need Correction On My Inverter Connection As Explained by pato405(m):
netotse:
Parallel connection of batteries is to give same voltage higher current, I agree with you on the positioning of charger issue though.

@OP
LV isn't my strength but I would say your charger/load connection needs a second look
My apologies, I was wrong. in parallel, you have same voltage (12V), cumulative Amp-Hrs. Nevertheless, For further consideration on best performance and safety, it might be most important to consider what OP wants to power (total wattage of appliances). wotcha think?
Technology MarketRe: I Need Correction On My Inverter Connection As Explained by pato405(m): 10:36am On Oct 18, 2015
1. Information incomplete. (AmpHour/ AH rating of batteries not specified)
2. Why do you choose to have a parallel connection which gives you 12V X 3 = 36V as opposed to series: 12V, 3XAH rating of batteries?. In this way, you are making use of 36V cumulative battery voltage with a 12V inverter. Which is wrong!

3. Why connect charger and load simultaneously?, rather, connect a switch/change-over in-between.
4. 12v external charger to charge your 36V? shocked, bro you are kidding! your charger will overheat, and could cause a fire. Be careful.

Bless you my guy. Leave them with their Toyota propaganda. They think the whole world must drive a Toyota. I've told Op that I drive one, I even went as far as dropping my number for him to call me and if possible book an appointment to have a look at it. I have driven it for 2yrs now and still counting without visiting a mechanic. I'm NOT selling it, just to buttress my point if need be. Interior is ok for a car of that price. Fuel consumption is superb. No issues at ALL. Quiet engine, still looks as clean as a fresh toks despite driving it for 2 yrs. The body is rugged and I MUST say I'm really impressed with FORD.

ElRazur:
My brother drives a 2006 Ford Escape in Nigeria. It was a left hand imported from the UK. In fact, the car was from an American military personnel based in the UK here.

The car has been used to travel to a few parts of Nigeria and I have been inside it from Ilorin to Ife and for many daily use in Ilorin. My thoughts? A reliable car that I personally see nothing wrong with it. The ride is quiet on the inside and seem to absorb the bad roads well. The car has been in naija for three years or so now and the only repair that's done on it was when the car door was dented by the house gate. No mechanical failure and no issues that will give me any concerns if I am buying a Ford Escape.


I am buying a car in naija soon and I have it down as one of the alternatives I would consider. In my experience, I have nothing bad to say about Ford Escape. Even here in the UK, they've upped their game and they are easy and cheap to own and maintain. Finally, Ford that come to Nigeria are probably the one designated for America and in my experience they tend to come more kitted than their UK counterpart.

If you want to buy a Ford escape, I'll say go for it. However, don't be an average Nigerian and try to cut corners with servicing and looking after your ride because I= O. What you put in is what you will get down the line.

A Ford Escape from 2005 seem to retail for 800k - 1.5m. I think for what it does as s daily commute for social and pleasure, it is not bad. Good luck.

Here in Canada Fusion was the best selling car in 2009-011, and in 2013-2015 beating Camry to the top spot.
.
And for the month of March 2015 in the US market Ford Fusion dumped Accord out of the top 10 with CR-V the only Honda making the list.

In the top 20 in May 2015 you have 5 Ford cars on the list, Honda with only two and Toyota....no comment
www.autocontentexp.com/20-best-selling-vehicles-of-2015-so-far/
.
In top 21 overall sale for the year you have Fusion in occupying number 9 position while the ever present Ford Escape is in number 11.
Remember this is midsize sedan and SUV combined list, the Escape is always there.
www.caranddriver.com/flipbook/magnus-numeris-here-are-the-21-bestselling-vehicles-of-the-year

Even in the Hybrid segment you have the Fusion sitting closely to Camry in second place.

By the way the Elantra has done far more in sales than Sonata in the non-luxury car segment yet both still rank below Fusion both in sale and style.
Do your research bro.

You are devil incarnated. How can you prod someone to buy an early year model ford, a ford escape so that he'll be come a scape goat in the hands of the ford escape and won't escape its evil defects?
You evil black man want a fellow guy to buy a car with extensive gearbox and engine, unintended acceleration, airbag and seatbelt palava?

In the whole of Europe, VW has one of the best reliability so no carry your bad mouth go there. How I no sure say na you be the kazeem wey dey pour salt inside the engine and gearbox of your friends and neighbour VW?
You sound evil to be trusted. Infact, OP buy Honda or Toyota. Boring or no boring won't give you night and day mares.
Over 30million Americans and Canadians can't be stupid to choose a Toyota and Honda over a Ford

White man's ass licker, uncle Tom.

op, dont buy a car with ball joint pulling arbitrarily on the road o! grin..when it happens, this guys pushing you won't be there to help you. I know you are a young man, and I understand how, sometimes, very arduous and challenging it is, in the present day and economy, to save 1mil to buy a car. It becomes even more frustrating and heart-rending when you buy the wrong car. I was once in this quandry, not knowing what car to purchase with my scarce and limited resource. In as much as a Totyota is good, the prices are hitting the roof! and way beyond the reach of many young men, who need a good car but a struggling to save such extravagant amount.

The question now becomes: What are the close substitutes for a Toyota?
and my answer: F-O-R-D! again and again!

reason for my answer? From my experience using 2 ford cars over the past years....'they have NEVER failed'. Never stopped me on the road. Reliable, dependable, & strong. skikena.

shocked undecided you're bad.
Why would you wish an American car on your fellow brother man who's not your enemy?
you are evil! why the campaign of calumny against a product you know next to nothing about?

did I read someone up there advising op to go for a volks? op, pls save your money and treck rather than heeding to such advise. I have 3 friends who drive volks (Passat and bora) and a neighbour whose Passat almost gave him hypertension until he sold it for a miserable amount. My other friends nko? their complains weren't different. according to the one who drove a Bora...he said: "Bora was the Germans greatest mistake"...their complains scared me from volks product. the only volks a little bit reliable is the golf...but newer models are fraught with problems...check my posts...I helped a colleague sell one lately here on nairaland, despite her good maintenance habit, the car gave her lots of electrical issues.

the only debate here is that Nigerians are averse to other products outside Toyota and Honda.

Why are you being stup!d and wanting him to get a horrible product. What kind of a human being wishes the worst for another human being. Taken from an AMERICAN magazine. Do you honestly believe the Americans would willfully speak ill of their own product? American cars are not built to last. End of Story!
guy, you are a confirmed Fulani nonentity. no apologies. in every car, there will always be one or two complains from users - particularly from stubborn users who don't heed to instructions.I have driven a well maintained explorer - It still drives without troubles today and has served 5 solid years. that was 3 years ago. that experience encouraged me to go for another Ford product..
I didn't like the size of the explorer, so I settled for an Escape - I bought it, and its been sweet. I REPEAT that, I've never visited a mechanic in 2yrs and still counting. in fact, the mechanic opposite my house does not like me because he feels that I don't want to patronize him.


I have no reservations recommending ford
Nigerians are just unduly biased against other cars. they only want to hear - Toyota or Honda.

Thanks fulaman198
Withdraw this 'Thanks' abeg! grin

When you ask, ask people who drive one, don't allow others who are simply biased and form their opinion out of sheer ignorance to deceive you.

Get a toks Escape and thank me later. I will advise against any Nigerian used car. Reason: Many Nigerians have a very poor maintenance culture. They dont mind using wrong parts, wrong engine oil, and patronize wrong mechanics. They eventually resort to selling the car when problems resulting from their poor maintenance habits become insoluble..and guess what? When you turn up as a potential buyer, You'll NEVER be told of the problems they've been grappling with - so you end up buying a pig in a poke - another man's whahala with your hard earned money. Nothing can be more painful than such. Pls go for toks and do a routine VIN check, Check milage, scan the car...if it's all OK, pay, service the car and you are good to go! cool

No, I would stay away from Ford in general. Americans don't build their cars with reliability in mind. They build it with mass production and making the most money in mind. I would look for a Toyota or Honda.
BIG FAT LIE !!!

I totally disagree with this post!

Op, I would advise you to go for it. It's a very reliable car. I use one and it has never disappointed me. It's 2 yrs and still counting. As a matter of fact I have NEVER visited a mechanic for any reason to repair an major damage. I have only visited once to change the rear lamp which broke when I carelessly reversed without noticing a pole behind me. The parts are relatively cheap for a SUV. I got the rear lamp 6k - mind you, NO toyota/honda equivalent is less than that amount. Tiny light's rear light is about the cheapest @ 4k, and mind you it's a '99 car and not SUV! We should be comparing with CRV or RAV4 of same year which I'm sure might Not be less than 7k-8k.

Ford cars are highly dependable. You wont regret going for it. However, I will advice you to use the right/specified engine oil/ATF for the car - i.e Motorcraft/ 5w 20 or 5w 30 and oil filter - That's all! Don't ever use whatever isn't specified for the car. You can call me on 081-49777-036. I'm NOT a ford agent, I don't work with them, but I must tell you the FACT - FORD cars are solidly built and dependable.
