Sana nakapunta din ako... Gusto ko ma-feel ulit yung off-roading eh...

Last time I had the greatest experience was when we use our Int'l Scout. Bata pa ako nun...

After that, tinitignan ko nalang ang mga off-road events.

*kcboy,

oo nga... parang taubin ang Delica.. Tumaob nga to o'

mga suvs , they have a wide long hoods, so hindi nakakatakot tumaob, unlike the delica which has a short front hood, you feel like on certain articulations sa offrading ay tataob.

[drey]

yan yung excitement eh... para kang nasa roller coaster pero without the fear of heights.

[blue_acoustic]

ano po ba ang recommendable na shocks nyo para sa jeep(wrangler)?

[rodeljavier]

Sir,
based on my experience sa 4x4 if yuo want something na pwede all around get a land cruiser..70-80 series..which has a solid axle also yuo can modify it by having aftermarket springs,shocks,lockers,limited slips..this is the best 4x4 where durability and toughness proceeds its name..the under carrieage of this vehicles can withstand even the toughest off-roading..coz weve been using prado and vx diffs here in our 4x4 vehciles,even with tires up to 38'' it can handle the poundings .. for prado 70 series i suggest u get the one with a 1kz 3.0L engine..

Sir,

I'm interested of owning a Prado Light series gwapo kasi dating especially kung naka lift, baka pwede maka request ng more info's and kung saan market avaialabel then how much.

Regards,

Rodel

Hmmmm! Eto saken
1974 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40
Orig 3.9L Toyota F engine V6
4x4
3-Speed Manual Tranny
12V Battery system
Kung sa palakasan lang sa makina eto pipiliin ko! Pero kung sa Economy Pass muna ako.Hahaha!
Fuel Efficiency ng FJ40 ko is 1L-7Kms City Driving 1L-9 - 10Kms Highway Driving at 80KPH
Maganda siya
35 Years Old na ang FJ40 ko pero hindi pa rin na dedepreciate unlike sa ibang 4x4 like feroza and viataras
For a 35 Year old toy ang Odometer reading niya is 187218 Kms lang. hindi siya tampered kasi si mama mismo ang witness. Company car eto noon ni mama. it was used only for trailing of her boss sa haciendas dito sa negros.

last 2010 pina body repair namin ni papa ang FJ40. it cost us at around 150K!! Magastos talaga! Lifted na siya 2 inch naka monroe magnum shocks ..installed new sanden aircon..ang rear door niya is ambulance type pero pinalitan na namin sa 2 Door swing type. scrape to metal ang repair. halos one year din sa shop ang FJ40...


Sad to say ang Land Cruiser ko ay ipinag tiwala ko na sa isang foreigner.magasto na kasi ngaun sa gas at hindi na rin kmi nag off road trail ni papa..at ayoko e change engine iyon kasi mas gusto ko ang stock.


Eto ang pinaka OK na 4x4 na SUV sa akin!! Kapag maging successful na ako! Gusto ko ulet bibili ng FJ CRUISER malaki ang impluwensya sakin ng FJ40 sa 15 years naming magkasama.Hehehe.Toink!

[nikko mercado]

i love 4x4 vehicles but im not into hardcore trailing,just minor offroads and towing here in our province.,that is why the basic upgrades only on my rigs are aftermarket shocks.

It's been out since 2006 BUT sadly it hasn't reached the Philippines.... Instead the much older DMax Ddi-iTEQ engine is what's been given to us and continues to be so until the present, and/or perhaps until us Pinoys continue to buy them.

How i'm really beginning to hate Isuzu Motors for treating the fatherland as junkyard of old Isuzu's

Had it been this 3.0-litre DMax iTEQ VGS Turbo is the one issued instead, it would have been largely a go-gether for many hardcore offroad enthusiasts in the country.





Might as well just move on next year and trade-in my current 3.0 Ddi-iTEQ for the 2012 penta-cylinder 3.2-litre Ford Ranger.... that is if Ford Philippines accepts Isuzu junks

Mas mataas naman resale value ng isuzu vs ford sa Pinas afaik kaya malamang mas maganda ibenta mo na lang yan kesa trade-in. Malaki pa makukuha mo.

Bakit naman kasi ayaw ibenta ng Isuzu yan dito. Ang guwapo pa naman nung grill at front fascia ng Boondock 4x4 edition.

[111prez]

puede ba dito mga 4x4 suzuki multicabs?

The Gen3 3.0 TDCi Ranger did what the DMAX in the video did *0:31 in a very muddy terrain on Ford's media test drive. AFAIK, it was an A/T and left in 4L on 1st gear and the Ranger climbed up only in idle wearing Dueler AT's lang.

I like the Dmax more than the Strada talaga. hehe. The Dmax kase is more off an off-roader talaga.

Hay nakow Boss Rye at Sirboss, kaya nga sadyang nakakainis! ....Hehe

Isa ang DMax 3.0 iTEQ VGS sa mga mine services ng ako'y na-destino sa Spain taong 2008 hanggang 2010. Hay ang layo sa akyatan ng mga pang-Pinoy natin na 3.0 Ddi-iTEQ kaya sadyang bumili ako ng Racechip Pro ---- pero iba pa rin, kasi lalakas lang ang hatak ng Ddi-iTEQ natin with the Racechip Pro 2000 rpm up, samantala mga yan, may hatak na kaagad below 2000 rpm.

Sayang nga sirs eh, 2008, 2009, and 2010 Europe's Best 4x4 offroad diesel pickup ang DMax 3.0 iTEQ VGS according to an Austrian-German offroad magazine. Ganon din sa Australia, 2009 Australia's 4WD Action best 4x4 diesel utility pickup ang itong DMax na ito.

Pero dito sa atin sa Pinas, nakow pow!.... Lumang Ddi-iTEQ ang binibigay magpa-ngaun pa man! ....This is why i really HATE Isuzu Motors (pati Isuzu Phils. for being too soft) for treating us Pinoys as good-for-nothing buyers of junkyard Isuzu engines

Hindi na rin darating yang iTEQ VGS na yan sa atin, malamang sir, kasi sa announcement nga lang ng Isuzu Phils. lately, hindi daw nila alam kung kelan darating ang 2012 RT-50 sa atin kasi daw problema daw ang right-hand drive to left-hand steering conversion.... ANO????

Ang dapat sabihin nila hindi na darating RT-50 (maging DMax iTEQ VGS) dahil ang makina ng 2012 RT-50 ay improved-version lang ng makina ng 3.0 iTEQ VGS na pinalakas lang nila to 180 metric-hp with 380 Nm torque

It's not funny anymore patronising Isuzu....

Mas astig nga yung looks nung Boondock edition which is the standard na ata for 2012 as postd by sir benzmizer.

*sir 111prez: Puwede nyang 4x4 multicab. Basta 4x4 puwede dito.

Yung 4x4 multicab nga ng isang distributor ng gamot eh nagpupunta sa mga lugar na pinupuntahan din ng mga isuzu froward na 6-wheelers (puro putik at oangit na offroad ha). Kaya bilib ako basta naka-4x4!

[SiRbossR]

Gustong gusto ko ung Boondock Ry. I like the style. It's like going to zap you. haha

ung grille of the boondock seems really nice.

[hinDMaxsiado]

Gentlemen Sirboss and Ry,

Let's not get amazed by that "chicken-wire" grill fascia of the Philippine-DMax. That thing has been a standard grille years earlier with the Euro-version DMax.

(Minus the roll-bar), this much-better looking "Mr. Hood Scoop" DMax iTEQ VGS not only comes with a better engine, better-looking rims, but is also Bilstein-suspended ;)





BUT, it won't be coming to Philippines....

That's why i'd rather just watch Jim Carrey's movies to make me feel better

Haha, masama talaga loob mo sa Isuzu ha.

Tsaka bilstein suspension FTW!

Pasaway naman kasi.

BTT: I'll take pics of the souped-up jimny 4x4, ganda ng setup.

Hindi naman halatang-obvious di ba sir

Yes sir, it's Bilstein-suspended according to the article featuring this UK-stock model Denver Max iTEQ VGS.

Just recently i asked at Isuzu forum about upgrading the rear suspension of the Philippine-DMax ---- Benzmizer highly-recommended the Bilstein as he had it in his Trooper. It can be sourced and set-up outright by Speedlab Racing.

The Jimny 4x4 is very capable offroader, especially in tight trails where smaller 4x4 are advantaged.... Even the Suzuki Samurai's that we had previously in Surigao province when i was assigned there in 2002 to 2005 are as capable.

[lucky strike]

Hello to all, i am planing tu buy 4x4, baka may mairekomenda kayo yung affordable lang, gagamitin ko lang sa probinsya, wrangler, samurai etc, basta kaya ng bulsa
