    Checked this out in Trioma yesterday.
    I really like how this machine looks inside and out.
    I got disappointed its not equiped with VGS. Old 3.0 engine na nga, wala pa VGS.
    In addition to that sabi ng ahente it will not arrive in Philippine shores kahit na we will have them assembled here 5 months from now.
    parang mas gusto ko pa tuloy ang old skul but powerful 2.5 ng strada which is cheaper.

    Based on my observation, thou Isuzu decided to retain using the 4JJ1-TC to power the new D-Max, the intercooler size was increased -- definitely would have a positive effect in its performance.

    IMHO, it may be a "setback" to some who hoped for the VGS version of the 4JJ1 but I'd take this anytime of the day considering it's proven to be efficient and reliable.

    I love Isuzu pero setback tong ginawa nila.

    Ranger XLT MT is even chepaer than LS 4x2 MT by about 70k and yet the Ranger:

    - has more power
    - has more torque
    - 6 speed
    - Auto Wiper
    - Cruise Controil
    - May bedliner pa

    The LS' edge is the Leather Seats and the 10-speaker system and a better plastic finish.
    Tapos yong Rim pa ng LS, prone sa nakaw yong center cap. haayz.

    Isuzu naman. Plano niyo din atang gawing Sportivo andg DMAx.

    Timing Gear ang DMax. Yong Ranger di ko nasilip.

    Madumi daw kasi ang diesel natin kaya just retain the old, well very old 4JJ1-TC engine pero para all new, palitan ng body.hehe

    Ung 2.5L, akala natin 120 hp, 108 hp lang pala, mas lalo pang bumaba.

    Grabe ang IPC.
