Isuzu Dmax Owners [ARCHIVED]

[rna800]

hi to all:

soon im become new owner of dmax and askking your guidance
1.the best way transporting unit from cebu to CDO?
2.ano ka-ilangan kuning documents sa casa cebu?
3.wla pa plate number, pwedi po ba sya ma travel?
4. thanks sa dami kung nalaman sa thread nyo....

Welcome to tsikot, koronadal!

Good choice in opting to go with Dmax. Please post your pictures once you have already acquired your unit.

For questions 2 and 3:

I am not from the places that you have mentioned but I think with regards to the documents, we have all the same. Just bring all the documents that your dealer/agent will give you once they have released your unit. For the no plate no travel policy, I am not sure how it works or how strict they are in your place but in Metro Manila, they give you a one week grace period. There are lots of ways to get away with it but good for me, not a single cop flagged me down and it only took exactly 1 week for my plates to arrive.

Keep us posted!

any thing we wont use for a while gets some probs when we used it already.. same as our cars.. if seldom used, meron din masisira due to storage... stuck up brakes, the bushings or rubbers would get brittle, etc.. comparing to regular use.. as for the engine nanman ng dmax..its electronic na, so maybe by the time you use your vehicle the oil is already old or not suitble for use na dahil nagdeteriorate din ang oil even not in use kahit fully synthetic pa gamit mo... kung baga nag expire din yan... hehehehe... it would be better if the ride would be used more often in a week... sa experince namin dito, mas marami sira ang ride ng customers namin that hasnt been used ng matagal compare to those used daily....

Huh?! Hmmm... I wonder ano basis mo for your statement.

2 club members who already figured in car collision accidents with their stradas will swear to otherwise.

are you sure, sir? may we know the basis of your claim? we are all eyes ...and ears as well.

I have to disagree with limahong. Although I am a Dmax owner, naninipisan ako sa kaha. Same goes for most Isuzus not assembled in Japan. Nakabangga ng lasing na idiot yung Dmax namin braking at 40kph, tumama ulo nya sa hood, yuping yupi. Yung Ranger ng friend ko similar experience pero hardly noticeable yung dent.

Let's keep it real here. Mag base lang tayo sa first hand experience.

Well, nice of you to take note that the post by sir limahong is offensive, not only to strada owners but to ford ranger owners as well. Thank you sir. On the ford ranger, he had been consistently bashing that pick-up in his previous posts.

The problem is sir limahong may not be aware that his post is offensive bordering to down right insulting.

Actually, we are giving sir limahong the opportunity to substantiate his statement that "the strada is a can on a wheel (sic)". If he cannot, the least that we expect is an apology to all strada owners. Yun lang naman.

As a forumer, we have the responsibility to see to it that what we post is not insulting to other tsikoteers.

i agree... manipis nga body ng Isuzu.
like my previous ride, Xwind 05 nabangga
sa pader ng husband ko, hindi naman masyado
malakas ang impact pro basag headlight ko and
grabe yupi nya sa right side.

[srbogoy]

ok na po, manipis na kung manipis drive safely na lang po kaming naka dmax......heheheheh

[isketi]

hmmm.. i've seen several previous generation dmax (the first one, minus face lift before the global dmax) with that color. oh is that magma red? the "orangy" red? i'v visited isuzu website and the tornade red appears to be orangy red. now i'v googled tornade red and it is the same as i posted :confused:

Yup, the dmax prior to the global dmax, they have that maroon like color, I am not really sure what is the name of that. When they released the global dmax, it came with the tornade red and that is the only red color available for that model. Now, I think they already replaced, I am not really sure on this, the tornade red with the magma red which is more orangy as compare to the tornade red which really looks red. The photo below is the picture of my truck which is tornade red and if you'll look at it, it looks like the color of the dmax in your picture.

It's called Foxfire Red, just like my ride: ;)
