2012 Fuso Canter FE vs. Isuzu NKR (4HG1-T)

[SiRbossR]

Canter mas maganda.

[kevin3000]

projector headlamps pa yung canter

[drey]

I also have relatives who are in the dealers of a alcoholic product. Vote goes to the Canter. Eats the Elf on hilly roads, more comfortable, and easier to maintain.

Isuzu NSeries is the best.. No.1 diesel manufacturer ang Isuzu,. Obvious nmn tlaga na mas madami ung bumibili at gumagamit ng Isuzu Trucks dito sa pinas. Kahit saan ka lumingon merong isuzu truck kang makikita, bihira lng ung canter na yan.. In terms of reliablility ang durability obvious tlaga na Isuzu yung nangunguna dyan mga dre'

[SiRbossR]

^hanggang pinas lang pala eh. kelan pa ba naging no.1 diesel manufacturer ang isuzu? magaling sila gumawa ng mga fumigation engines sa sobrang mausok nila at ingay.


ISUZU FAN BOI ALERT!

ISUZU FAN BOI ALERT!

Man, is there a fanboi epidemic or something?

[SiRbossR]

^Maybe there is, they're everywhere in this forum!

As being a seafarer ive been to japan many times over,sa observation ko sa mga nagdedeliver sa barko namin napansin ko mas lamang ang Fuso super great at nissan diesel ang nag dedeliver ...Yung mga modified trucks sa japan ung mga nka stainless chuva mas lamang ang nissan diesel at fuso....

Ang naririnig ko din dito sa atin tungkol sa H series engine ay mahuna cya? is this true? sa elf at jeep naririnig ko ito...Ang b series kasi matibay tlga pwd mo palipasin ng matagal na hindi mo cya immantain tatakbo parin.

Di ko maverify dahil never owned a H series engine...Sabi ng mechanic friend ko mas matibay daw ang 4d33 at 4d35 engines..Its hard to assume from gossip....i guess i have to wait for inputs of people who owned these kind of trucks with the mentioned engines...

But from what i see on the road looks like the new canter is making a comeback....

Anybody feel free to correct me..im on this forum to learn...

We have Canters and NKRs in our fleet, mas matibay ang Canter.

^agree. Kahit sa mainland China, mukhang Foton yung pinaka ok sa kanila. I didn't know na sa ibang municipalities 4000kg ang truck ban.

Went to the two showrooms today.

NKR comes with two engine options: 4JB1-TC (2.8) and 4HG1-T (4.6). Interestingly there are only 70 kgs difference in their payload capabilities (according to the brochure). Lots of redundancies in their lineup (ie. NHR 2.8, NKR 2.8, NKR 4.6 ).

Even the SA (who is obviously unknowledgeable) declares NKR 4.6 is not part of the truck ban.

=====

Canter is indeed made in Japan. Large shipping label on the front windshield declares "Made in Japan" . Batteries by Panasonic with Japanese markings on it. Fuel filter Made in Thailand.

2014 model comes with backup camera and along with the requisite price increase. FB body costs +170K more.

I prefer the Canter.

So far the SA gave me two deals:

1. 35K disc + Free LTO (worth 12,000 or something)

or

2. 50K disc (for approval), no free LTO.

Comes with the standard EWD.

No picking of end number for LTO. According to the SA, picking of last number causes the delays in plate delivery. But deep inside me thinking, LTO has been allowing cherry picking of last numbers (as well as any number combo) for more than 15 years already and its only recently when LTO had troubles with its supplier did the Delayed Plate Distribution Syndrome come about.

Any owners here with a Canter with FB body (made by Centro)? How does it stand up to the weather?


We have a 2011 L300 FB made by Metro trucks. The rear body is already showing manufacturing deficiencies this early - thin paint on roof (now spot surface rust), inside rust on the rear drip mould gutter, leaks from rear door, etc....


======


basti, as for your FE71 aluminum van, is it the composite type or the regular flat sheets with visible rivets? Hope you can PM me who made it for you.

How's the performance and reliability so far ? Casa serviced or own maintenance?

Sa Royal Caloocan kami nag pagawa, it is because marami na kami transactions sa kanila before. I'll check with the price, hindi kasi ako nag asikaso nun. But knowing us sa office, sa pinakamura namin usually pinapatira. 2 days lang ginawa yun as I surely remember. I'll post pics of the aluminum van tomorrow when I get to the office.

Casa serviced so far, pero sa 10tkms, sa labas na to. OK naman performance. Like buying a brand new regular Jap car. Hassle-free.

The company is finally getting Canter FE71. Php 1.1M net from 1.15M

Prices went up for 2014 models, by 30K bec. of a reverse camera.

Next challenge is making the rear body.

[crazy_boy]

I wonder ano mangyayari sa market share ng Isuzu N series. Lagi nila pinagmamalaki na number 1 sila in terms of sales since late 90s.

Hi guys Im looking to buy a brandnew fuso canter fe83 6wheel since I cant find a decent secondhand unit, question is may truck ban ba siya?

Medyo confused lang, Truck ban is said to be set at 4500 Gross Capacity Weight, so pertaining to payload ba siya or Gross Vehicle Weight?

Literally, Capacity = Payload but Im not so sure, minsan misleading MMDA so

FE83 Payload is 3.8Ton so no truck ban or
GVW is 6Ton so have truck ban?

AFAIK, its based on the Gross Weight. FE83 is within the truck ban catagory. Only FE71 is not part of truck ban.

================

Our FE71 is about 6 months now and almost 10,000 kms already. Just received the plates last week. OR/CR indicate "August 2014". So I'm not sure what happened bet. May to August. Did it really take the dealer that long to submit the papers to LTO ?

Bakit Isuzu pa lang ang nagshift sa Euro IV sa mga trucks, samantala yung Hino at Fuso Euro II pa rin?

Foton is EURO IV now.
