very happy specially when i changed the engine oil and transmission oil at 5,000 kms. before there was delay in response sa primera and segunda but when a friend recommended to change the plant fill oils on its 5K mileage, it improved a lot! ngayon parang kabayo sa primera hanggang sa lahat ng gears at initial pump.

some noise on the body but i am planning to have all bolts torqued in my next dealer visit.

anu speed mo sa quinta *2000rpm?

This is my highest speed so far. Check the rpm.... very efficient at only 3000rpm engine turn

Kumusta ng mga Thunder nyo? I'm planning to get one also by the end of this year.

Sir, anong RPM mo at 100kph?

Im really interested this Foton Thunder seems nice price reasonable too.

Inputs in this forum are very informative.

I recently sold my 17 year old L200 and im planning to get another workhorse soon.

Thunder owner please post your observations

Pangit ng foton. lalo na kapag sa service. Try other brand mas reliable pa. Try JMC, GREATWALL, DONGFENG pick-up

You mean sir pangit ang Foton Thunder?? Yung performance ba o ang physical appearance other than the service that you've mentioned??.

Saw the Foton thunder sa AVID expo yesterday sa the fort...They have a promo for the white color only...yung 1.1++M na 4x4, less that 1M nalang...and yung .9++ na 4x2, nasa 800K++ nalang...In fairness, gusto ko yung built nya interior and exterior ang ang big plus talaga is the Cummins engine...

Ayos pala may promo.
Di ako nakapunta sa AVID but last year MIAS nakita at na usi ko ng mabuti itong thunder, yes I like this pick up, the engine, transmission & differential are all from well known brand. Kaya yung nagsasabi na pangit ang pick up na ito maybe they are just mis-informed guys, basta china made ay pangit na!.
