Ako naman chief, most prolly i'd go for the Volkswagen Amarok 2.0 TDi twin turbo, if it's going to be offered by the upcoming Volkswagen Philippines (c/o Ayala Group) and if the price is not that far from the others

After two Isuzu D-max's, time to try a different taste, and perhaps even time to sell the two hehe

But just like the D-max, however, the Amarok is also boxy-shape. And any which way one looks at it, a box-type vehicle will always look way better than the others that have gone more to aerodynamics looks, as if they intend to fly




Cheers!

I like the way you look at pick-ups, boss. Parang parehas tayo ng trip. Pag ma introduce ng Ayala ang Amarok, magkano estimate mo? Puti ang type ko nyan. OT na tayo a.

Di baleng Out-of-Topic tayo chief hehe --- There is no definite news anywayy from the stagnant Isuzu Philippines when's the all-new D-max gonna be in Philippines ....Besides, i prefer the boxiness of the previous generation D-max with the handsome hood-scoop more than this all-new D-max. Isuzu should not have deviated to the looks of the all-new Colorado, all-new Ranger and the Hilux.

The price for the 2.0-litre twin-turbo Amarok Trendline 4x4 manual-tranny with the 17-inch tyres and with the 163 hp, 400 Nm torque can go somewhere within the price of the Toyota Hilux 3.0 D-4D 4x4 manual- or auto-tranny ....However, the tweaked-out Amarok Trendline 4x4 manual-tranny (with an updated mapping of its turbos), also with 17-inch tyres, that comes with a 179 hp, 420 Nm torque at 1750 rpm engine can fetch more than the Hilux, perhaps within the price of the all-new inline 5-cylinder Ford Ranger 3.2 TDCi 4x4.

All Amarok diesel engines are 2.0-litre twin-turbo (there are gasoline models as well though, TSI series). The high-end manual transmission models are badged TDI400 while the high-end autos are TDI420. The low-end models are the TDI340.

Cheers!

Yes chief, especially the Colorado 2.8 Duramax ....Comes with the RA428 engine (180 hp, 470 Nm at 2000 rpm) from VM Motori Italy (a subsidiary of General Motors). Or, arguably the best is the Ford Ranger 3.2 TDCi Duratorq. Comes with a super-smooth straight 5-inline cylinder engine (200 hp, 470 Nm torque starting at 1500 rpm).

Watch also for the near future arrival of the newly-spec'd Toyota Hilux 3.0 D-4D (171 hp, 360 Nm torque beginning 1400 rpm). Or, yet again, the Volkswagen Amarok 2.0 TDi twin-turbo (180 hp, 420 Nm at 1750 rpm) if the Ayala Group would bring it in when Volkswagen will open sometime next year for the 2nd-time romance with Pinoys.

There is and will always be a lot of pickup choices coming to Philippines. But tho8se ones available right now are the all-new Chevy Colorado and the all-new Ford Ranger 3.2-litre can be had on special order from Ford Philippines at the moment. Sooner, it will be available in mass commercial distribution most like5ly next year. But you can see some plying now in the Philippine roads ;)

Cheers!

Or you can opt for the mazda bt50.

While the overall mechanical spec on the BT-50 is good, but the trouble is, it's just to ugly to even look at it

Chief GTi,

DNF sa 2013 Dakar Rally si RT-50 ni Bruce Garland at Harry Suzuki. Stage 12 yata pulled-out na sila ayayay....

Buti pa ang "hood-scoop" D-max ng rookie 1st-timer na gamit ng Aussie countryman nila nakatapos sa buong 14 stages hehe, at 39th overall yata. Ang gamit nila.... Ang dating D-max na ginamit din nila Bruce at Harry noong 2009, yup, the one that got them the 1st place diesel UTE recognition hehe....

Cheers!

[d_mac]

Grabe mga highly-tuned V8 gasoline version ng Toyota Hilux sa 2013 Dakar Rally! Halos pinakiyaw Top 10 standing hehe....

Toyota 4.6-litre V8 petrol engine - 350 hp, 540 Nm torque

Saw this on youtube...

This is a Left Hand Drive... Tagal naman dumating ng bagong DMAX.

[d_mac]

The only D-max that crossed the finish line and completed all gruelling 14 stages of the 2013 Dakar Rally - the legendary "hood-scoopy" 3.0 iTEQ VGS Turbo. ....(Bruce Garland and Harry Suzuki's much-hyped all-new D-max bailed out by Stage 12 due to tainted fuel, according to reports.)


Piloted by Dakar rookies Adrian DiLallo and Steve Riley, both of whom are dairy farmers back home in Oz, the duo and their Garland-tuned previous-generation D-max proved to be tough as nails hehe. According to them, this very D-max didn't miss a beat






Much like the scenario in 2009 when Bruce Garland and Harry Suzuki rolled this very D-max into the podium after winning the 1st Diesel UTE (utility pickup) to complete the race ....This particular model would have been a hit in Philippines for sure had it landed....

It was THE BEST D-max ever that we Pinoys never got!!!!

....And WHAT A SHAME Isuzu Philippines!

[GTi]

So they used the EXACT SAME D-Max that finished the 2009 Dakar?! The lone fact that they used an old, abused car is a commendable feat!

If the new D-Max was subjected to tainted fuel... Shouldn't it be that the old D-Max was subjected to the same fuel... and survived?

YUP chief, it was the very same previous-gen "hood scoop" D-max that in year 2009 it received only some minimum tweaking of the engine that enabled it to put out 500 Nm torque, plus with most components as standard OEMs used during their (Bruce Garland and Harry Suzuki) maiden Dakar Rally voyage, according to Garland in a statement that year.

In 2010, it received another update where up until 2011, it was producing almost 250 horses with 630 Nm torque. 2012 was a leave by Isuzu Motorsports from the Dakar Rally and Bruce was recuperating from his heart bypass surgey and broken back he suffered during the 2011 event, when this same D-max landed heavily into a sand pit after a sudden fall from the dunes that both riders miscalculated at the exit.

The 2013 all-new D-max, it also Garland-Racing tuned, is up to those power figures at 250 horses if you observe those numbers mentioned earlier, plus some more hardware modifications than the previous generation D-max.

Sayang at di man lang naibigay si "hood-scoop" sa atin at parating na si Chinese mongrel D-max na di ko alam kung mix ng Chevrolet Colorado, Great Wall pickup at Toyota Hilux sa windows, rear at side-view naman....
....Isuzu should not have gotten away from its original boxy-shape style, the very reason why i like the looks of the Philippine- and "hood-scoop" D-max. DANG! What is this all-new D-max that we're getting!!
