Vehicle ownership can be quite daunting, especially for first-time car owners. From the latest features to the newest in-car technology, newbie motorists can sometimes find vehicle maintenance overwhelming, which is why they are on the look-out for car clubs and communities to learn more about their vehicles, share their experiences, and ask questions to their fellow members.
This is one of the reasons why the Next-Generation Ford Territory Owners Club Philippines (NGFTOCP) was formed last year, a few months after the Next-Gen Ford Territory was introduced in the market. To mark the group’s first anniversary, the club organized a leisurely drive to Dasmariñas, Cavite for its first-ever grand meet-up to finally meet the members and put faces behind the names.
Being part of an online community like the NGFTOCP where one can seek helpful advice can be incredibly beneficial, as Rodel Faderan, a first-time vehicle owner, can attest to.
“As a Territory owner, I do have a lot of questions on car maintenance. One good thing about the community is they can help provide answers and share vehicle-related information to the members,” Faderan shares.
As a car club, NGFTOCP prides itself in fostering a strong sense of camaraderie and support among its admins and members. “It’s really about helping each other and building our community,” says Rowell Punongbayan, an active member of the club.
With a great mix of personalities and diverse backgrounds, the support extended by the members come in different forms. “In NGFTOCP, members can ask for help – whether it’s about their Territory, personal matters, business-related questions, or anything else they might need assistance with,” shares Karren Leigh, one of the founding members of the club.
At the end of the day, the glue that really holds the group together is their collective passion for the Territory and their eagerness to share the features and capabilities that make it a reliable daily driver. “For me, the biggest selling point of the Territory is the space. Plus, the driving pleasure is also there. It’s really agile and fast,” says Miller Ocampo.
Miller, Karren, Rowell, and Rodel are just a few of the people brought together by their love for their Ford Territory and sense of community and advocacy. Who would’ve thought that owning a vehicle can lead to finding such a supportive and tight-knit group?
