Ganda! Any idea when ito available sa market, sir? Dealers still doesn't have info about it kasi.. although I already placed my order.

Hmm.. judging from the picture it seems wala nagbago from previous model except ung rim.. care to share what's new with the 2011 model sir?

Wala siya bumper overrider same sa LS 4x4?

TIA

sir teekoy, ano po yung bumper overrider?

[teekoy]

2011 LS model



The Boondock should not be that different with the LS model.

Ung bumper nito may overrider

[mykee13]

tnx po sir teekoy.

guys, is the engine response of the iteq engine dmax the same with the response of the 2006 model dmax? yung may 3.0 td nakalagay?anyone can help?

i own a 2006 model dmax and for me i feel that it isnt as responsive as the iteq engine dmax. Is it really because of my engine? we regularly have it serviced following the PMS but in terms of acceleration the iteq version really is faster. Anyone out there can help me? TIA

Chief, hindi ako mahilig sa Chinese teekoy pero i can share my experience on these two models ---- and you're right, maganda (ng kaunti ) "3.0 Ddi-iTEQ" chief kaysa sa "3.0 TD Intercooler". The latter is a non-CRDi 4JH1-TC older engine. The relatively new 4JJ1-TC "standard" (2004 model engine) in our current Philippine-DMaxsiados is even more fuel-efficient, just a bit though hehe....

Just happen to have them both, my honest 2 centavos opinion....




But both Philippine-DMaxsiados are WAY INFERIOR compared to the "3.0 iTEQ VGS Turbo" Isuzu DMax issued in Thailand and elsewhere ---- 164 ps or metric-hp (120-kilowatt), 360 Nm peak torque in stock-trim

Anyone know how to remove the chrome tail light guards? Too much chrome on my truck

[ChoyJo]

Any news guys kung darating ba dito sa Pinas kahit yung SuperCommonRail lang na Dmax? Hmm

[babkalakal]

Any news guys kung darating ba dito sa Pinas kahit yung SuperCommonRail lang na Dmax? Hmm

We're not the only ones that know about this "better" Isuzu DMax mga idols, and up until now, "tulo-laway" nalang tayong mga Pinoy sa kaka-panood ng product features nito where even the Australians speak highly of this DMax iTEQ VGS Turbo; well, how does 43% increase in sales from 2009 to 2010 on this Aussie-model DMax sounds like????
....Moreso, how does it sound for us Pinoys that the Thai-version DMax VGS (same as the Aussie model) regained back the No. 1 spot for 2010 in pickup sales beating the 3-litre Toyota Hilux, once again hehe....

Don't forget to click on every "hotspot" in the link below (7 of them in total) and be amazed by such features that we Pinoys have been deprived of since and still dragging on up until now DANG!!!! ---- Imagine that since 2002, Isuzu Japan has been exporting state-of-the-art 3-litre CRDi diesels with variable-geometry turbos to its European markets, namely Renault of France, Saab of Sweden and Opel of Germany, and we haven't tasted any of these running 10 years now since! Ain't that great!!!!

Click onto the 7 hotspots here in this link (pay attention to the drivetrain/ engine and performance hotspots most especially)

Just be reminded, however, that one influential guy here in this forum is sore just the mere mention of this "better" DMax iTEQ VGS Turbo ---- he even view it as a complaint when Isuzu patrons, even long-time patrons i must say, express such discontent as to why it's still not here in the Philippines and considers it a taboo discussing it

[mykee13]

hinDMaxsiado is right i wish IPC would bring the "new dmax" unlike our raw and old dmax here in the philippines. Sad to say i guess the dmax is being left behind against newer competitors which have more numbers interms of hp and torque gains.

Punasan na lang muna ang tumutulong laway para di mapagkamalang may.....

Isuzu Philippines is a joint venture: 35% Isuzu Motors Ltd, 35% Mitsubishi Corporation and 30% partnership of Ayala Corp & RCBC.

Better not blame the foreign brands. They are not in full control.

Dahil sa 60/40 na batas napag-iiwanan na talaga ang Pilipinas. Puro na lang Thailand dahil doon pwede sila magmay-ari ng 99.9% ng kumpanya.

Anong foreign brands? Baka foreign companies or shareholders....

Matagal na nating alam yang 35/35/30 set-up, Mr. Iku-boy, o kung ano pa man yan.... at lagi ko rin pinupunasan laway ko ngunit pilit pa rin tumutulo hanggang ngaun.... At alam din natin na ang Mitsubishi Corporation ay hindi Mitsubishi Motors. Mitsubishi (Trading) Corporation is affiliated with Isuzu even the Isuzu Thailand under its Isuzu Business Division, and also with the marketing aspect of Mitsubishi Motors....
....But Mitsubishi Motors which you "might" think of as a brand that has a control at Isuzu Motors or Isuzu Phils. from your statement "Do not blame the foreign brands", does not have a take at Isuzu Motors or at any of them.... Mitsubishi Corporation is a trading conglomerate of different business divisions and it is not a brand....

Alam din natin na sa bawat continente, differentiated ang mga models ng Isuzu.... Kung categorised tayong mga SE Asians (maliban sa mga Thais) as Class "C" consumers wala tayong magagawa kundi pasensiya nalang muna. Kahit saan ka magawi dito sa SE Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Singapore, Philippines etc. maliban lang sa Thailand, pare-parehas DMax natin na "3.0 Ddi-iTEQ" ang model. Meron pang mga "3.0 TD Intercooler" model na 4JH1-TC ang makina pero hindi ito katulad ng "3.0 TD Intercooler" na ginagamit namin sa Europa noong 2008 hanggang early 2010 noong andun ako. Dahil ang makina ng mga ito ay ang 4JJ1-TCX VGS na gaya sa Australia at Thailand.

Kung ownership lang pagbabatayan, having 35% take ng Isuzu Motors plus another 35% from Mitsubishi Trading Corp., at 30% lang ang Ayala/ Yuchengco, wala dapat problema kung gugustuhin lang ng Isuzu Motors at Mitsu Corp. na dalhin dito yang DMax VGS Turbo.... Kaso, gaya na nga ng sinabi na rin ng mga taga-Isuzu Philippines Class "C" lang talaga tayong mga Noypi at matitigas daw ulo ng mga Japon nating nasa taas ng Isuzu Phils (management) dahil pinapaubos daw ang over-production ng Ddi-iTEQ sa atin....
....So your statement not to blame the Japanese as to why that DMax VGS model is not yet here is just a pure making of yours at haka-haka lang wika nga, pare koy

In fact, ang Isuzu Inteco, sa Facebook website nila, they expressed just recently that they are trying honestly and everything to bring that DMax VGS Turbo engine here sa atin kahit lang sa DMax Boondock variant as top-of-the-line DMax, at baka posible din sa 4x4 na Alterra, pero di pa natin alam as to when this will be realised.

Hayaan mo chief Iku-boy, ikaw una kong babalitaan pag-andito na Pinas ang DMaxsiado VGS Turbo ....at hinding-hindi pa rin Mitsu Strada kukunin ko ahihi

Wow andami mo naman sinabi.
Hindi mo na ako kailangan eh remind kung ano ang kaibahan ng MC sa MMC. As kapamilya, I know very well the family.

The percentage of ownership is enough to explain why we Pinoys were deprived. Besides each of the 3 owners wants profit thus explain why Isuzu in PH is very expensive.

Magkano mana kaya abutin ang presyo kung ilalabas nila ang best in line? Saka bat sila maglalabas ng best in line eh kumikita pa ng limpak-limpak ang iba nilang investment sa ibang brand of the same product?

Get mo? Tama na satsat para di tulo laway. Itikom na lang ang bibig... hehehe

Haha!!!! Palusot na naman, as usual, walang pinagbago! Brand pala ang Mitsubishi (Trading) Corporation ahihi ....Para na rin sa ibang readers yan chief, baka akalain lang na ang Mitsubishi (Trading) Corporation ay Mitsubishi Motors per se.... Group of different businesses ang former.

You still got it all wrong chief, tignan mo nalang structure ng iba gaya ng Isuzu Malaysia na hanggang ngaun wala pa rin DMax VGS Turbo kahit na ang mga shareholders nito ay Isuzu Thailand, Isuzu Singapore at HICOM ng Malaysia. Thailand is just up north of Malaysia and even them Malaysians, are also clamouring for the DMax VGS, gaya nating Pinoy ahihi ....
....Ang dami din nga mga DMaxsiado dito chief hehe....

As for our Isuzu Phils., they have to find out how to bring that here even if it means just plugging it to the Bondoock DMax and top-of-the-line Alterra, much like the following scheme from Toyota and Mitsubishi:

1. Hilux 4x4 and Fortuner ---- they are using the VNT-equipped 3-litre 1KD-FTV engine exclusively for the top-model Hilux and 3-litre Fortuner variant

2. Strada and Montysport ---- they sell the one with the VGT for those who want it and as top-of-the-line model

Isuzu Phils. should also do the same, in fairness naman-naman, naman-naman....

Get mo? Tama na satsat para di tulo laway. Itikom na lang ang bibig... hehehe

Tama na rin yaw-yaw mo at haka-haka't buladas Iku-boy

Ano ang buladas dyan sa katotohanan na may control ang Mitsu sa pinakamamahal mo na brand sa Pinas.

I am talking about MC, ang pinaka-profit oriented (laway ang puhunan) sa mga siblings within the Mitsu Family.

MC is also one of the sibling-owner of MMC sabihin mo na rin buladas yan... hahaha.

Laki kasi problema mo. Hard to face your problem ba?
Sige pagbigyan whatever sabihin mo after this ng sumaya ka naman.
