[toadstool]

nakakaduda kase nakalagay...SPECIALLY DESIGNED for TOYOTA VIGO. toyota kaya gumawa or an aftermarket company? btw, vigo is their hilux in thai. but just wanted to make sure kung orig.

[vicoyski]

why dont you pull out your reservation and buy a different SUV and why not sorento ex diesel its much cheaper and who cares its not a japanese suv. you guys are getting rip off and the worse thing is, you know about it but still keep waiting for your unit that may not available this year. F-U-CK TOYOTA :swear:

Partner, careful ka... This is a Toyota Owner's thread... You're inciting a flame war with this kind of post.

That's it! Yan yung hinahanap ko! P4.5T pala yan? Ang mahal pala for such a small device. Priced nearly as high as a back-up sensor! The Vigo and the Fortuner have exactly the same 3.0 D4D Turbo intercooled engine. So, there won't be any problems installing that in your 3.0V.

Be careful to all owners of keyless entry vehicle. If someone with a 2 way radio like Motorola Talkabout will JAM your remote control if your locking the vehicle. Your vehicle wont lock! Then that person will steal your valuables when you leave the vehicle. Make sure to double check after you press the ARM or Lock button.

If you want an audible confirmation that you have armed/disarmed the alarm, just activate the function using the remote. It's off by default. Instructions are in the manual.

I'm wondering if the tiny alarm horn can be replaced with a Bosch horn for a more 'macho' beep. ;-)

For the list of future Fortuner owners, I'm sure we still want to have our unit but the only thing we are crying for is FAIRNESS for us to have a win-win situation here.

Can anyone help us in this, or is it already a dead end situation and we need to face the reality about this unfair business practice?

Can't we as a group here make a stand and let the public know and maybe somebody would listen?

I think 111prez gave his legal comment on such an action at the Toyota Fortuner: Dealership Woes thread. I remember reading one poster gathering names for a class suit/complaint to DTI.

[wilcats]

our agent called yesterday... cuz i textd him about the price increase... and yes it is true... 40k... and thats not the end of it, once the evat law has been aprroved, another price increase.. well the good thing about our conversation wuz that our unit will arrive 1st-2nd of october.. but he cant promise the final price.. wtf!?!?!?! arrghhh

[Bry]

Rumors are iniipon lang muna yung mga Fortuners right now. They'll release the units after the price has increased AGAIN. Para ma-offset yung presyo, kasi they can't force everyone to get IHI and IHF and all that other stuff.

hay nakooo.. ibang klase tlga kyo toyota

muka kyong pera

toadstool,

What shop did your friend find the turbo timer?

Thanks

Brought our new member of the family home, I'm feeling kinda dizzy while typing this reply because of the fumes from the rustproofing (btw guys, i'm sorry if I kinda misled some of the readers about soundproofing... It's just that every vehicle I had rustproofed sounded "newer' or "quieter" for lack of a better word after being treated). The dark gray mica actually looks kinda bluish to me, in fact when parked next to my pick-up truck ('97 Pathfinder) they look like siblings! Btw Boss Vic, please add me to the list. Thanks guys for keeping me company, hope to see you on the road. Will post some pics soon.

to all those who would like to vent their disgust over toyota and fortuner, we do have a fortuner woes thread. let's leave this thread with a positive atmosphere. and once you get your unit, you're always welcome to join the positive and realistic discussion. thank you

Pwede bang D-I-Y and installation nyan turbo timer na yan or, does it have to be done at the shop?

[ultraman]

The new face lift model of the VIOS is on its way. They are finishing existing inventory, which is doing well. Number 1 siya kasi sa mga Med Rep. The Vios is not subject to price increase on the old model this Oct. 3. Wala pa atang stock. But surely iba yung presyo nung facelift model.

[katsudon_ph]

guys,

san makakabili ng front tire cover? kc walang ganun ung sa fortuner and yung head-unit ba pwede lagyan ng pioneer 7650?

Yes, it is a dead-end. It's now each man to his own. Only those people who have obscene amounts of money can afford to get their Fortuners early. :praning:

By the way, this is the Fortuner "Owners" thread. So sympathies are a minimum here. Check out the "woes" and "boycott" threads instead.

Not necessarily unless an individual has really good connections with either a dealer or within Metrobank.

Mushi_Mushi: Hindi naman mga sobrang yaman lang ang nakaka-kuha ng Fortuners ng maaga. Madami din dyan na may pera din, pero ayaw magpa-taga sa IHI and IHF, kelseat, 20" rims, and other what-have-you packages. Kasi it defeats the whole purpose of the Fortuner being 'sulit'. It caught the eye of most because of the very low price, pero madami palang hidden payments.
