Why is this initial Kendo grid filter not working?

I have a model like so:

Id    Type
-------------
1     Vehicle
2     Trailer
3     Vehicle

I am hoping to eventually use a radio button to control how this data is filtered on a Kendo grid, choosing to filter on whether Type equals Vehicle or Trailer. I don't know how to do that, but, for now, I can't even get the initial filter to work. My grid is as follows:

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<PcKendoUi.Models.CompanyDueDatesIndexVM>()
    .Name("DueDates")
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        columns.Bound(c => c.Id);
        columns.Bound(c => c.Type);
    })
    .Filterable()
    .DataSource(ds => ds
        .Ajax()
        .Model(m => m.Id(x => x.Id))
        .Read(s => s.Action("Test", "CompanyDueDates"))
        .Filter(filter =>
        {
            filter.Add(f => f.Type == "Vehicle");
        })
     )
)

My code is based on the filter example from the documentation.

This still displays all 3 records in the model, rather than just rows 1 and 3. What is also interesting is that after specifying this initial filter, the filter controls also do not allow any filter. That is, they are visible, I can type in data and click Filter, but it will not filter the grid.

Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be?

According the documentation your syntax is not correct, you wrote:

filter.Add(f => f.Type == "Vehicle");

When it should be:

filter.Add(f => f.Type).IsEqualTo("Vehicle");
