Hello Guys,
Have been searching the net regarding light truck reviews specifically the Hino 300 series and the Isuzu NKR models (4-litre models) with little luck. These type of vehicles are not much talked about on the net (maybe because its not driven personally) so am crossing my fingers that there will be somebody in this forum that has experience with these trucks.
Here in MM, there is a strong bias for the isuzu brand mainly because its been in the market for years and quite popular. But that is besides the point. We dont buy mainly on the merit of the brand itself but on the acutal performance too (at least for me).
Hino has been in the market here for years as well but they are better known for their bigger trucks and buses. Now they have introduced the light truck.
Anybody who got this Hino 4-wheeler? How is the performance? If you have both the Isuzu and Hino in your fleet, how do they compare (performance, maintenance, spare parts, etc)?
Your feedbacks are appreciated.

September 27th, 2009 07:29 PM #2ah, dont worry about the part of Hino 300 series (Dutro). . sigurado na in time madaming part ito. . and compared to other light trucks, mas malapad at makapal ang chasis ng Hino light truck. . If you want to test drive the unit, ok lang. . schedule natin. .

Thanks for the offer for a test drive louieryan but our office just took delivery of this truck a few days ago. Have driven it around for a few kms and cant give a worthy comment so far. Give us a few months, I might be able to give a feedback by then.
Hino gave us a good deal for the cab, chassis & passenger van body (all from Hino) which made us decide over an equivalent Isuzu+3rd party PV body unit.
I think Isuzu, Hino & the other truck importer/manufacturer's are selling whatever stocks they have now, or until the end of the year na lang. The govt is mandating the trucks sold by 2010 be euro-2 compliant already and the current models are still euro-1. So I suppose the cost of these trucks will be higher by 2010?

ok. had this unit for about a month now.
all i can say is: "its a truck." :captain:
its very bouncy, more bouncy than the bounciest pickup truck! whenever you run thru an uneven pavement (yung concrete road blocks) that have deformed like fallen dominos, the truck will bounce hard and since you bounce with it, you tend to release the accelarator and the truck jerks around further; which means you cant drive it fast as you would like it to well, maybe in a few years time after we torture this unit, the springs will soften up :naughty2:
looking at the build of the unit, it looks quite durable naman. will see in a few years time....
the cost is lower than the isuzu nkr which is equivalent to it (not the nhr).

How is your Hino Truck now after these years? Reliability, maintenance, parts support, what products do you haul?
I am looking for an Isuzu alternative

Good general advice, but I think any mainstream news from China and by China, which are known to...
