The Best of Lokomoko U Gags

On the January 7 episode of Lokomoko U:

- The most hilarious fan favorite of Lokomoko U, Pinoy Brainless, with JC De Vera and Rainier Castillo is here and geez, the stupidity made us laugh 100 times!

- The best gags of Lokomoko U since last year

- The Lola Basyang of Lokomoko U, named Lola Moko, is here again for the second time in "Ang Mga Alamat ni Lola Moko, and Lola Moko tells us the "Alamat ng Peklat".

- Mouse-ster and friends in Lokomoko U's Keso City introduced a newest mousy friend, Maria Cla-rat, a mouse from the poor province. In this Keso City, the mice ham out on everything college.

- Previously on Bahaw: Ikalawang Hain; the tensions between the characters led Blue (Empoy) singing the blues. Anyway, the house went out of power and who's going to light this out-of-power house? Doc, for sure.

How to make an animal figure with paper?

Ahem, on the January 7 episode of Banana Split there is another Art Throb portion with John Prats as Kuya Art.

In that episode, Kuya Art, the Art Throb, teaches us how to make an animal figure with the use of paper and scissors.

First off, Kuya Art teaches us to fold a paper in a horizontal manner, then cut the middle part with the scissor. After that, .... ugh that was quick to summarize what Kuya Art did.

The result: An animal on the left with the name of the animal on the right, like for example; Pusa (cat), but it can turn it into Aso (dog). Once it's Aso, it can't be undone!

BTW, there's another Melason sketch on Banana Split as Cheche and Monmon. Jason, as Monmon does a harana on Cheche, that's Melai. Later, Cheche spilled water on Monmon because Monmon was with another girl, but Monmon told it was his mother that took him to the mall. What did she do? FAST REWIND and problems solved, THE END!

Why, HARI? Why?

2012 Hyundai Grandeur


What a shocker! According to Top Gear Philippines, Hyundai Asia Resources, Inc., the number one Hyundai distributor in the Philippines, behind the best Hyundai models all Filipinos love such as the Starex, Santa Fe, Tucson, and others, resigned from the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers in the Philippines or CAMPI.

Why would they do that?! They're the number one Korean car brand in the Philippines thanks to the offering of the Philippine-favorite CRDi engine, why resigning as the member of CAMPI?

We, Filipinos, love Hyundai because of the Starex, Santa Fe, Tucson iX, YF Sonata, recently launched Accent RB, and coming to the Philippines this year is the new, fifth-generation, Elantra (Avante) MD. What do we do now if our favorite Korean car brand left CAMPI for good?

(Photo above is the Hyundai Grandeur HG, coming to South Korea next week. It is uncertain that HARI may bring the new Grandeur as the Azera but I think they'll not bring it due to poor sales)

Oh well, Got to watch some Koreana episodes. I wonder what's going on with Kris Bernal, as Jenna?

Fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro Convertible

2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible

When the Chevrolet Camaro returned in the North American market for 2009 as a 2010 model, we believed that Bumblebee is more iconic than Eleanor thanks to Camaro sales higher than the Ford Mustang. Thanks to the Camaro's sales reached to the higher point, General Motors is now ready to give Bumblebee a haircut and call it the Camaro Convertible. The new Chevrolet Camaro Convertible is Bumblebee's new hot haircut, which means this is the soft-top version of the hit American muscle car.

Upon its launch, customers are ready to place orders on the new Camaro Convertible, with initial delivery starts at Spring 2011, the same season that Bumblebee's new haircut will hit showrooms soon. Despite Bumblebee's new soft-top haircut, Bumblebee can still experience the same goodness from its coupe counterpart.

The new Camaro Convertible is offered with two engine types; a 3.6L 312-hp V6 engine and the legendary 6.2L 426-hp V8 engine. Most variants are offered with a Six-Speed Manual Transmission but an optional Six-Speed Automatic Transmission with TAPshift controls is available for those who are not hungry over manual transmissions but whatever, most Bumblebee fans would go over the six-speed manual variant for sure.

Other main features include Four-Piston Brembo Brakes, StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System with Traction Control, Tire Pressure Monitor, and OnStar for reliable service offered throughout North America and it's free for six months. If you got bored over the normal Camaro look, don't worry, an RS Appearance Package made optional for those looking for style.

My thoughts about the Camaro Convertible:
With Bumblebee's new soft-top haircut, the new Chevrolet Camaro Convertible has the same Camaro goodness now in a soft-top convertible. This car is now available for pre-orders and to be delivered in the 1st or 2nd quarter of 2011. I just hope that The Covenant Car Company, Inc. (the official Chevrolet distributor from the Philippines) will bring the Camaro Convertible soon and if it does, what would Ryan Agoncillo think? If our favorite celebrity (since Ryan Agoncillo's the brand ambassador of Chevrolet in the Philippines) gets behind the wheel of the new Camaro Convertible, I am sure his hair will blown from the open air goodness of the Camaro Convertible.

The Morning/Picanto's full model change

Kia Picanto/Morning '12


Ahead for Geneva debut this March, this must be how the full model change of the Kia Picanto (Morning) looks like.

In the tradition of the Peter Schreyer design language, the new Picanto or Morning now made even more aggressive. This looks like the Euro-only Kia Venga and it looks much better than the 2011 Toyota Vitz/Yaris!

Kia Venga 

Toyota Vitz RS '11

Expect more details about the Picanto/Morning's full model change soon!

Scoop:

Nissan Fuga Y51 will be the Malaysian government officials' choice, replacing the Proton Perdana

2010 Nissan Fuga


Check out the article by Paul Tan:

According to that article, the Nissan Fuga Y51 (launched in 4th quarter, 2009, following with the Fuga Hybrid since 4th quarter, 2010) will be in Malaysia, only for use with the Malaysian politicians. It would replace the aging Proton Perdana (based on the Mitsubishi Eterna) and it will be equipped with the VQ25HR (2.5L V6) engine.

The Nissan Fuga, when it arrives in Malaysia soon, will be used only for Malaysian politicians. No word on private ownership yet, but I just pray to the Philippine automotive Gods that either NMPI or Universal Motors Corporation will bring the Nissan Fuga Y51 as the Infiniti M37, but in my product of fantasy, this will be used by Philippine politicians.
