Epitome of Pure SUV

It is hard to describe the ownership experience for me with this vehicle. I guess it can almost be described as happiness and sorrow combined. The vehicle itself is a high quality vehicle( which I will miss when gone) which rides on shocks and rear springs (nice). Plenty of power, big, unique, cool, and comfortable. Problem was with Isuzu disappearing in North America. Was assured by dealer they could continue to service when they dropped Isuzu franchise. My transmission was serviced and failed. Had to wait 18 days to get fixed at authorized Isuzu dealer. Second one failed again. Replaced again at no cost. Still love the vehicle, but Isuzu disappearing and other issues caused anguish.

I'm about to purchase trooper #4. Too bad they won't make 'em any more after this year(big mistake). I've logged over 200,000 miles, without any real problems. That big long warranty is a farce, nothing ever breaks. My first trooper withstood a collision that would have killed all occupants in most other vehicles, but I walked away. The visibility allows you to maneuver this behemoth as though it were a bicycle. I like the ride, and the power is adequate. The seats are far better than any comparable SUV.

I chose the Trooper after test driving everything else out there and determined that the Trooper was by far the best value for my dollar. The vehicle has a surprisingly smooth ride for an SUV and the controls are very easy to use. The vehicle has more than enough cargo room and the spare tire is located on the rear door for easy reach in case of emergency. The build quality is excellent but the technology is a little dated. I only have 3,000 miles on the vehicle to date and I am a little disappointed with the fuel mileage.

I've owned my Trooper for over 3 years now, still drives great. Bought it used in January of 2003 and just reached 55,000 miles. No major problems. Only thing I've replaced are the battery at 50,000 and the tires at 52,500. The only thing I have to watch is the oil level as it occasionally gets low after 4-5 months. It's a great hassle-free SUV to own. Plan on owning it for many more years.

I have had a reoccurring problem this thing keeps down shifting while driving on the highway at highway speeds on level ground. The dealership hasn't been able to fix it after six attemps and the isuzu reginal rep stated there was nothing they could do. My family is terrified to ride in this thing now. For your own saftey buy something else.
