"HELP improve Anfra 2007"

[Djerms]

I guess I'm not included in their target market group because I really find it ugly...

[monsrick]

ayos ng pang business yan. mas nagagandahan ako dun sa dating anfra

Me too!Ganda yung dati

[tanoshi_637]

Whoever knows Mr. Anastacio Francisco, paki sabi na lang ito:

i hope they improved the brake pedal, kasi yung 1999 model na nagamit ko masyadong malapit yung brake pedal sa poste ng manibela kaya pag tapak sa brake tumutukod yung sapatos ko sa poste ng manibela, i have to keep in mind to use only my toes for braking.

Sir ANFRA, salamat po sa tapang ninyon. i represent kaming mga pinoy sa ma kompetensiyang mundo ng modernong Automotive Industry, please make us proud, keep aiming for excellence.

Salamat po..

Ugliest P.O.S. I have ever seen.

Mga ibang car companies paganda ng paganda ang gawa. Yung FMC after twenty years pumangit pa.

The new Anfra is nothing to be proud of. Even a 1990 model Tamaraw can beat it in looks and quality.

Look at the suspension struts jutting out in front. That is a sign of poor engineering. Nakakahiya.

And look at those thin 150mm wheels. They are the cheapest in the market, and are dangerous on wet road conditions.

Go Anfra Go! Go Anfra Go!
Go Anfra Go! Go Anfra Go! type ko na sya for agricultural use....

kung magkakahala lang siya ng tulad ng suzuki double cab, sa Anfra na ko.

sige po ipagpatuloy po ninyo ang pagbuhay sa sariling atin!

I like the:

1) roomyness...kayang kaya magkarga ng 4x8 na plywood,
2) headroom looks tall enough - kahit na 6footer will not have a problem riding it,
3) carlike na ang dashboard - space for a better radio, merun pang glove compartment, 4) big windows that doesn't seem to have blind spots,
5) big sidemirrors to further aide the driver not to hit anything when backing or manuevering,
6) big engine bay - pwede pang malagyan ng much bigger engine if needed,
7) very neatly done engine bay - madaling linisan,
8) big lights - impossibleng hindi ka pa makita ng kasalubong mo diyan

...overall what it lack in beauty and porma, it compensates with functionality.

I think if they price that Anfra properly, it should do well as a practical replacement of the AUV na papaliit na ng papaliit lately and as a mass-based utility vehicle.

I definite agree. Mga AUV gawa ng CAMPI at iba pang foreign companies puro pang porma at hindi panghakot o pampasada. Kailangan ngayon yung mura at affordable . Kahit Chinese engine basta bago keysa second hand surplus engine o brand new Japanese o Korean engine bwisit sa mahal.

FMC again, ignore the brickbats at banat nung iba dito sa Tsikot. Tama yung isang nag-comment. hindi naman sya kasama sa intended market ng Anfra. Obvious naman e, pang cargo at passenger ang style nya. Just go out and sell your vehicle.

Bring it to Cavite, may bibili dito. Im sure, kakagatin yan ng operator basta ok ang presyo. Maraming potential buyers dito Cavite. Puedeng pang-service sa University belt ( Cavite version-- Lyceum, DLSU-D, AMA, EAC, Perpetual, St. Jude, St.Paul, TUP, Elizabeth Seton, Rogationist) at Industrial Estates-Ecozone dito.

If its pangit to others fine. But its still better than before, contrary sa comments ng iba. Mas maganda kesya sa mga backyard assembled jeepneys and AUVs ang Anfra. If its too agricultural and industrial, good. These are the characteristics of a utility vehicle, of a people carrier. Di naman siguro ginawa ang ANFRa para pa-pogi points sa chicks at pang-date o pang yabang lang.

I commend you FMC for re-launching Anfra. Las Pinas will be the direct beneficiary of this and the other native auto industries here in Southern LUzon.You will stimulate the local assembly of vehicles again.

Magbenta kayo. You earn.You can nurse back FMC, You give jobs to Pinoys. Thats the most important thing. You survive. The true local AUV industry will survive.

PS

San kayo mag-assemble ng Tsikot PHUV....Kikita tayong lahat...

GO FMC! GO Anfra!!

Go Tsikot PHUV!

[Syuryuken]

hindi naman masama ang design, ang tanong ngayon diyan kung magkano ang presyo.

[spectral]

If this is your product in the 21st century, then FMC will die a natural death.

Mr. Francisco should realize that, on one hand, the Japanese and Korean vehicles have constantly improved on their vehicles, and on the other, the low-cost Chinese cars are slowly invading the bottom-end of the market.

Saan ka pa sisingit if you have nothing new to offer the market. This is the basically the same old Anfra sold during the last century with a new Chinese engine.

Shoddy and ugly vehicles like this is the main reason why the local AUV industry is dying.

[safeorigin]

ahem... anything better you can come up with than that? What can you suggest for the tsikot phuv to make it something for us to be proud of?

anyway, i'll take yours as a constructive criticism, since my surname IS "Francisco". lol

[chuaed]

mas maganda pa iyun dating toyota tamaraw's with toyota L type diesel engine, very fuel efficient, mas maporma pa ang dating... specially iyun nagawa dati double cab...

dati, hawak ng toyota ay delta motors...

[drey]

Bukas ko pa makukuha ang full specs.

Eto lang as of now:

2007 FMC Anfra
Price: 390,000 w/ 1 yr warranty.
Additional 50K for Dual Aircon
Engine: 1.8L (on display), 2.8L, 3.7L, 3.9L - All are ISUZU Clone (China)
5 Speed M/T
Ladder Frame

I think the owner of JAC is reviving the FMC brand since ang mga sales agents ay from JAC rin.

[meledson]

For me, kahit na di kagandahan, maasahan naman, relatively cheap to buy and maintain. Sana fuel efficient din.

[tanoshi_637]

Sir ANFRA,

i commend you for trying to have improvements over the first gen anfra's, i may not fully imagine your predicament kung bakit there's little improvement other than front exterior & engine, maybe due to budget & available resources, this Anfra may even be the best of whatever you could cough up for the meantime.
please do not stop here, raise your bench mark after benchmarks. please continue to dream and turn them into a reality day by day.
thank you for the boldness to step up into the challenges that you are well aware to face, be firm, reinforce your courage.

Tsikoteer Dudes,
dont ask so much porma for now, this is intended for utility/business not your chick magnet. Let's give Mr Anfra a chance, baka ito lang muna ang means niya to survive & generate the finances for improvement.
if you feel the burden & share the same conviction, then by all means help the man. i assume he's well aware sa mga maaring feed backs but may be helpless for now. so dont add insult to injury.
this is our fellow filipino, help him!
"Love your Country"

previously, meron ABS kit na ikinakabit in series sa brake lines. it adds the pulsating effect dun sa applied pressure. pwede ito i-add as option. and drum brakes are still in-use today....those still work, pwede pa rin. di pa mangingitim rims mo sa init.

[monmendoza]

Saan ba makikita ito? Hanggang kailan ba ang exhibit. Is there a website for the specs? Anybody who is a sales agent from Anfra? I would like to buy 1 unit. I would like another color, ayoko nang white. Please PM me. TY

...And look at those thin 150mm wheels. They are the cheapest in the market, and are dangerous on wet road conditions.

Actually, thinner wheels are better for wet road conditions.

Just thought you'd like to know.

[A121]

Looking at specs,

it can be a good car for business. un lang.
