Nurey, Abeg give me your opinion on the Lincoln MKX 2007/2008. Apart from the fact that I know it's a Ford Edge, please give your opinion as per durability and parts cost and supply as well as maintenance. Thanks. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 5:56am On Jan 05, 2019 |
Vested:It is durable, solid and good looking. The 3.5L engine is also capable but as it's still a Ford parts are on the high side. Part is still the same as ford edge since they are both same thing, so ford technician technicians can fix it |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by kingreign(m): 7:11am On Jan 05, 2019 |
nurey:Ford parts are surprisingly cheaper than japanese and European car parts. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 7:36am On Jan 05, 2019 |
kingreign:Not so, remember we have a Lincoln navigator, tokunbo parts are expensive shares parts with ford E series and expedition. To get part too most times is wahala My neighbours escape was just recently fixed had a rear impact that affected the complete left leg shocKS wheel etc, the price stallion quote for him no be here. |

kingreign:I am talking majorly about tokunbo parts. But I give it to ford, they have solid suspension parts. As for new majority prefer to utilise dealership they believe it's safer |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by kingreign(m): 9:18am On Jan 05, 2019 |
nurey:I'm talking brand new OEM parts. Their Rear shocks for Edges and Explorer 010-15 na their Achilles heels and also their front differential and fuel rails for their ecoboost engines. |

HeavenlyBang:Young men are pretty creative ![]() At this age, he should have his fast car before he has to settle for a family sedan |

pls help me compare between dis 2 huge monsters 05 gx470 vs qx56,i so much lyk dem both bt am confused on which one 2 go 4 on d basics of prestige,comfort,luxury,performance, i knw both are v8s so fueling is out of it. And also wat problems are associated with both? Thanks. Cc nurey heavenlybang |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 8:02pm On Jan 07, 2019 |
princevih:Both cars are reliable and, imo, about the same same in most departments. The Lexus is more reliable, though, and also the more capable off-road vehicle, I'd say. Luxury, handling, and performance are all for the Infiniti, however. Prestige depends on personal preference. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by ApolitiCal: 12:36pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
Please ogas in the house, which one is the best among 05/06 Lexus RX330, 07/08 rav 4, and 07 ford edge and Acura rdx. Please I need comparison in terms of everything including fuel consumption. Which one should I go for? |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 1:06pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
ApolitiCal:fuel economy RAV4 i4 RDX i4 T FORD EDGE. I4 T RX330 V6 only Luxury RDX RX330 FORD EDGE RAV4 Reliability and maintenance cost Rav4 RX330 RDX Ford Edge |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 1:09pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
ApolitiCal:From best to worst. I'm only considering the V6 models. Fuel economy: RAV4>Edge>RX330>RDX Performance: RAV4>RDX>Edge>RX330 Luxury: RX330>RDX>Edge>RAV4 Reliability: RX330>Rav4>RDX>Edge |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 1:11pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
nurey:Lol, the RDX is a horrible gas guzzler. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 1:19pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:The 2.3T in that car balances power with fuel economy, you think the RX is more luxurious than RDX joke of the century |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 1:42pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
nurey:You're joking. Forget the mpg listed online, ask people who use that car what their mileage is like. Not only in Nigeria sef. Yes, even in the US where people use the premium gas that the RDX absolutely requires. Imagine how bad it'd be with Nigerian fuel. The RDX is fuckin awful on gas. https://www.motortrend.com/cars/acura/rdx/2007/2007-acura-rdx-verdict/ 17 mpg on premium, lmao. Cc: Radautoworks. What was your gas mileage like on the RDX, the one with the turbo? ![]() And yes, the RX is more luxurious than the RDX. What are you talking about? Even ignoring actual features and everything, the RX competes against the MDX, a more expensive, bigger Acura. RDX is positioned against the new Lexus NX. An RX is more luxurious than an RDX of same year. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 2:12pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:You have cheated. The RDX is more luxurious than the RX330. Op chose 330 not 350 ![]() I will leave the fuel economy since it requires premium quality fuel. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HRtechnique: 6:54pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
What's the implication of changing a vehicle colour while the papers carry a different colour?. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Olumyyde(m): 10:23pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
Hello house, pls how efficient is the Honda 97 academy in terms of parts availability and affordability, fuel economy and maintenance? Tnx. Cc Nurey Cc Heavenlybang. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 10:49pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
HRtechnique:You will need police report for change of vehicle colour |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 10:54pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
Olumyyde:I did say if you have a choice don't buy parts are available but majority are tokunbo that will still not last. Good parts for this car are beginning to fade away, look at the specimens on our roads and you did agree with me. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Olumyyde(m): 11:20pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
nurey:Noted, only that it baffles me the way I see d model on d road like gala these days. it's just everywhere, especially in kaduna. Got me wondering. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 11:27pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
Olumyyde:In 3 years time EOD and DC would be gala In 5 years big daddy and 03-07 corolla would be the next gala In 7 years camry muscle would be gala There are alot of potential gala coming soon near you ![]() |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by weyreypey: 11:40pm On Jan 08, 2019 |
nurey:Muscle already gala. |
