sa cavite, along aguinaldo hiway, maraming nagbebenta ng stainless na passenger jeeps. pwede ka mag-canvas. simula sa bacoor papuntang imus, nakahilera mga talyer na nagbebenta ng jeep.

[omeng]

uu nga madami dun.

I think it's more headache than profits, or the profits aren't worth the headache. Even if you own a fleet of jeeps, you have to deal with the drivers too.

It's not something I would do, I've seen friends (many of them) run transportation businesses: bus, jeep, tricycle. Didn't go too well for them, margins are low, ... maybe it might work for one or two, and you own the jeep and just charge boundary. But if you can't deal with insurance, just imagine if something goes wrong, like the jeep gets into an accident or something like that.

But hey, some people do it ... you might do better than my friends did.

im from cebu, ive been to manila also and ive noticed that the manila jeeps are kinda different from here.

The manila jeeps mostly resemble the hardcore US Army jeeps of Circa World War II (Sarao etc...). While here in cebu its more of a hybrid - 2 kinds..

1. For longer routes - we commonly have the "truck" variant (i realy dont know what to call this). Its more of a mini truck or mini - hino and it defintely is bigger, carries more passengers, stronger engine (its a truck right) and maybe to some degree an efficient engine also.

2. For shorter routes - we have a "multicab" (very popular here). carries about 12 passengers, smaller engines (660cc-1000cc) and way cheaper.

But unfortunately i am all for the scrapping of this Jeepneys in favor of Mass Transit systems, no matter what it takes. Anyways its just to give you an idea of different jeeps in the country. :)

Pag-aralan nyo muna bago kayo bumili. Magtanong-tanong sa mga operator na may mga jeep na pumapasada sa intensyon nyong rota. Kalkulahin ang kita vs. expenses sa araw-araw. Kukuha ba ng driver or kayo ang magmamaneho? Bibilhin nyo ng cash o financing?

Sobrang dami na ng jeep, fx, bus. Mahal ang gasolina, insurance and maintenance. Sa fx, kung hindi kayo ang papasada at kukuha pa ng driver, kalimutan nyo na lang. Yung kikitain ninyo, gagtatusin lang sa maintenance.

[elyserva]

Bili ka na lang ng Van at ipasok sa Point-to-point or terminal-to-terminal franchise. Hindi pa laspag ang sasakyan mo. Hindi rin tumatakbo kung hindi puno.

[Ladydredd]

tama si elyserva. van na lang bilhin mo, marami namang second hand na mura. kung di mo man maipasada, at least, pwede mo pang maipa-rent privately.

pwede ang van mo sa ganitong routes:

any point in metro manila, laguna, cavite, or bulacan to:

any point in ortigas CBD, makati CBD, lawton, masagana supermarket in taft avenue, greenhills, baclaran/rotonda LRT, etc...

[h04x]

Please don't add to the traffic. :smokin: There are enough jeeps in the philippines. :)



*peace*

[elyserva]

Mas efficient talaga ang point-to-point dahil hindi tumatakbo kung hindi puno. Bawal din mag-pickup ng pasahero sa alanganing lugar. Lessen ang tracffic.

[wends]

dude, send me your contact no. my friend owns sylvester motors. they manufacture and sell passenger jeeps. you may contact me through wsang@myoptimind.com or 0916-4964575

[OliverWood21]

Gusto ko rin malaman kung magkano ba ang isang 12-seater na jeep?

;)

may 100,000 Php ba?

[ka_enteng]

nakapag-inquire ako sa LGS motors, 250k - 500k brand new.

[gumacanian]

I own a jeep...more trouble than its worth.
Find out stuff like route organisations or Jeep cartels as i call them that you will have to join..Find out if it will accept you and the cost to join plus other costs involved..Know the driver..Know him well. Ask other owners for a to do list and plead for a browse over their expence/profit loss book..Good luck.
You`ll need it!!

[OliverWood21]

Ang mahal pala.. :( parang kotse na pala yung presyo...

[elyserva]

500K? E di dagdag ka na lang ng kaunti L-300 na bilhin mo. Sigurado kang brandnew ang makina at engineered and body. Di gaya ng jeepney na pukpok lang sa tabi-tabi.

Tapos ikuha mo ng linya at biyahe mo point-to-point!

[OliverWood21]

^ Sa sobrang mahal ng gasolina ngayon, mukhang di na yata advisable ang "transport" business..

[josephine_laing]

Hi, I agree dun sa sinabi ni racho, my grandmother used to have 10 passenger jeepneys, sa maintenance and gasoline lang malugi ka na! I think it is much better kung mag business ka na lang ng shuttle jeep/van service or school bus service kaya diyan sa area mo! At least di laspag masyado ang sasakyan mo at mas maige kung ikaw personally ang mag drive at kung mayroon kang kamag-anak na gustong umalalay sa'yo the better kaysa ibang tao. Huwag kang bumili ng second hand na sasakyan mas ok kung brand new less ang headache mo sa maintenance at the same time naka insured pa.

I hope nakatulong ako sayo....... God bless you!

LTFRB is discouraging OFWs to invest in passenger jeepneys para pampasada. Sobrang dami na daw ang mga jeeps kaya hindi na daw profitable.

[Assassin_Mage]

Most people, when they think of Passenger Jeeps, they think only of the Jeep itself. you have to consider also the fact that you need a franchise in order to operate.

Find out first how much franchises are worth in your area. Or if franchises are available. there are some places where they have stopped issuing franchises due to the number of jeeps operating already.

as the others have said, there are lots of costs involved. consider all those first before deciding

:wave: hi everyone, just got the contact no. from my friend

look for mr. boni uy

tell them you were referred by wendy ang para u can get a discount hehe :glee:

[EcKo_01]

oks ang transport business kung magaling kang maghandle ng business. you should also be the one who must drive para matutukan mo yung jeepney mo.. mahirap na pag sa iba kasi kung anupa gawin nila dun. L300 ang mas oks ngayun biyaheng makati or cavite will be nice.

[marco_1]

kuha ka na *** ng Kia KC2700, 579K price nya

[gumacanian]

tell them you were referred by wendy ang para u can get a discount hehe

Para wends gets your discount in commission!!:yum:

[CoolCucumber]

Maganda bang bumili ng jeep ngayon? Kasi...

Pataas ng pataas ang gasolina

Mahirap namang magtaas ng pamasahe

Kapag masira ang jeep sakit ng ulo.

Asawa kasi ng trabahador namin may jeep e, walang kita kapag color coding at sira ang sasakyan.


:rpflag:

[daphine]

JUST WANTED TO ASK KUNG HOW TO GO ABOUT GETTING A "FRANCHISE' FOR A POINT-TO-POINT ROUTE THRU FX.....IS THIS LEGAL...KALA KO COLORUM ITONG MGA ITO.....AND HOW MUCH NGA PALA....LIKE THE ONE IN MAKATI...YUNG FRONTING LANDMARK....THANKS!:)

[nastrans]

Ang downside sa mga FX or van is that most of them are colorum, minsan nga kahit registered na at may sticker, hinuhuli pa din ng mga enforcer diyan para may ibubulsa, aside from that mukhang OK naman na negosyo.

[rsmca92688]

I agree with the previous posters.. mas maganda ang FX compared to jeep. A friend of mine merong FX, he makes P1000 a day profit -- so, it's a better investment.

Also, you can try renting it out. Nung nasa manila ako for a vacation, nag-rent *** ng van, we paid about 2000 pesos a day + gasoline.

So, mas better talaga ang FX / van.
