    Ang nangyari, parang sinabi nila na wag ng ibigay ang bagong engine, isalpak nalang natin ung proven, let's not even try to offer something new. Then ung sa 2.5, idetune pa lalo. Ano ba yan. Ok ang old engine for the older model pero sana naman for this all new, all new din dapat ang engine considering the size of the truck is bigger.

    Habang sa mga ibang brands, some are even luxury brands, wala naman problema sa mga diesel engines nila considering ang lalakas ng engines nila.
    Yeap fully agree... to add, bakit dito lang sa Pinas and Vietnam (correct me if am wrong here) ang hindi bago na engine for this all new Dmax. Are we that "low" that we don't deserve the new engine. I don't buy ung pangit diesel .. diesel na answer nila. eh bakit... ung Ford, Mitsu,Toyota, Chevy and even BMW are having their new engines with the same diesel quality. It's just plain BS or discrimination to me. Well dami naman happy pa sa Crosswind... ok.

    Boycott na 'yan para madala!

    Just goes to show how low these Japs treat the Filipino buyers. In my book that is a "betrayal". Check IPC's records, an Isuzu buyer, more often than not, will be a repeat buyer (i.e. purchase another Isuzu product) down the line. How can a company with a small product offering still thrive and be popular here.

    Buti pa Honda, they have customer satisfaction in mind when they have new product offerings.

    I doubt if loyal customers shift to another brand. Most of these customers want reliability in mind and they will get that in the old tested engine.

    D_mac, kung low end torque baka mas maganda kung 3.2 ranger ang iconsider mo rather than 2.2. Tama ka it relies on boost for low end grunt which in the city is a bummer. Yung 2005 dmax ko could do way better.

    Pero come to think of it, a reliable 3.0 carry over plus a new and more spacious modern body....baka match made in heaven ito.

    Hay naku sir, ubod ng hina marketing ng Isuzu sa atin sa Pinas when it comes to their passenger cars tsk tsk tsk
    ....Ang mahal naman ng mga pickups nito at SUV, kahalaga o mahigit pa sa mga naka-VGTs or updated engines ng mga competitors.... Business-minded profit driven one of the big names sa Isuzu Philippines, mga Yuchengco. Masaya na Isuzu management sa Top 5 to 6 sa sales sa bansa though No. 1 sila sa mga trucks.

    3 lang ang owners ng Isuzu Phils. ---- Isuzu Motors (which partly owned by Toyota Motors Japan), Yuchengco under the YGC group like Honda Philippines, at Mitsubishi Corporation ang mga may ari. It's a private, not public company; di tayo puedeng maging stockholders haha! ....and influence in the decision making ahihi.... Kaya tiis tayo sa diskarte nila.... Mitsubishi Corporation is different, by the way, from Mitsubishi Motors....

    Cheers!

    At least the "all new dmax" is sporting a new suspension. Don't know how it would fare to the older one.

    No doubt chief that with the 3.2-litre tapos inline-5 cylinder engine pa (isa lang ang balancing shaft nito at smooth, unlike our 4 cylinders na 2 ang kailangan ;) ) with matching 470 Nm torque starting at 1500 rpm, WINNER talaga low end the Ranger 3.2 TDCi

    Mas gusto ko pa nga taktaktak ng pagka-diesel ng lumang Pinoy-version D-max 3.0 TD Intercooler.... Mas diesel na diesel ang tunog ng makina.... Mismong boss ko nga na puti pinagmamalaki niya lumang Holden Colorado niya na Isuzu 4JH1-TC ang makina, super reliable daw he never had any problems tapos tipid sa diesel hehe

    Pinangkakarga namin yung D-max 4JH1-TC namin at hindi inaalagaan kaya madungis palagi sa field. Naluma na tignan sa mahighit din 300,000 km na biyahe. Alaga pa nga ang 4JJ1-TC (3.0 Ddi-iTEQ)....

    Cheers!
