Foton thunder pick-up

[weisshorn]

Nakita ko ito kanina sa MIAS, and man I thought this is mitsu/toyota/isuzu pickup but behold - it's a foton!
Nicely build body, decent dashboard layout and knobs. Nice fabric seat too.
I wonder if the engine performance will give its competitors a run for their money.

If the engine/power train lives up to the well known Cummins durability then the japanese brand pick-ups should watch out. I myself is not a fan of Pick up trucks but this one caught my interest, must be the engine, features & price tag that comes with this Thunder.
One thing I like with this truck is the big turbo charger inter-cooler located in the front of the radiator. This ensure ample supply of cooling air when the truck is at halt in the city traffic. This lay-out made access to the cylinder head parts easier unlike those designs that positioned the inter-cooler atop of the rocker cover.
