    Yes, the clutch pedal is rather on the heavy side. As for the 4x4 controls, they're push button controls in front of the shift lever.

    The biggest attraction here is the Cummins ISF Engine. The 2.8L ISF produces 160hp and 265 lb/ft of torque. Cummins engines are easily tweaked without much modification to get at least 25% more HP and torque. I have worked on ISB's, 4BT's and ISM's and know the control systems pretty well.

    If the transmission and diffs hold up this promises to be a great truck. I am going to wait for the 4x4 version personally. If the 4x4 were out today I would buy one immediately. Finally a locally available pickup truck with a decent engine.

    Check out the engine specs from Cummins. http://cumminsengines.com/assets/pdf/4951315.pdf

    Gumagawa ba ng cummins engine ang Dongfeng?

    In the link sa previous page ito ay gawa ng BFCEC (Beijing Foton Cummins Engine Corporation). May video clip sa link page about this company.

    Umaandar ba ang makina ng idepress ang clutch pedal. As per bronchure the clutch feature "vacuum clutch booster". Matigas nga pag patay ang makina.

    Meron sir thread under chinese car about this Foton Thunder. He, he.. same here I'm very much interested with these pick-up truck because of its engine & power train. (it says the tranny is from cadillac??) & most of all the price tag. No where you can find from other brand a pick up with as much power & torque with lower than 900K php tag price.

    If ever, I will be your first client for the additional power tweak
