Used 2002 Isuzu Axiom Consumer Reviews
future is here
Very different from any other SUV out there.Love the looks.Handels very nice on sport suspension mode, doesn't have that boaty feel others have(Grand cherokee, explorer...)
Diamond in the Rough
For anyone who hasn't considered the Isuzu Axiom a worthy competitor, I say...Drive One!! Isuzu hasn't put much into advertising this baby (and I could care less to remain one of the lucky exclusive folks to own one) but for power, looks, durability, etc. this is one potent pony. I got the base model with some options since the vehicle comes so well equipped anyway. The longer I drive this truck, the more pleased I am with my purchase. Am approaching the 6k mark and it has been extremely pleasant. This is one outstanding vehicle and if you were to compare Isuzu's warranty to many competitors that makes its value another 2-3k.

A secret, shhh..before they up the price
This TRUCK proves you can't take an expert's opinion. It has excellent quality and is fun to drive. The chimps that complain usually DISS the console display. Forget it, and get used to it. I've seen reviews about the truck like bearing...it is a truck...duh! Try taking your RAV4 through some sand or...ahh, you get it. Have you ever gone to a movie that gets a bad review, and liked it? Get away from the maddening crowd and don't tell too many people, they might start charging full price.
NO MORE BIRDS! (for dinner that is...)
This SUV is neat because it is different from others. However, I have to say I am sick of reading how awsome it handles, like a car. This toaster, that was wrongly named "Axiom" blows all over the road with the slightest gust. It does pull my boat, witch is nice. Too bad my boat is easier to drive in a straight line. If you don't let it warm up, it hessitates, even backfires. maybe I got a dud who knows. My advice, go with a different manufacturer.
You could do much worse
Honestly, I had this car for 7 years and 105K before my wife totaled it last week and with the exception of an AC compressor a year or two ago, the vehicle was flawless. I towed a 3500lb boat and it was perfect. Even with the 2WD model the limited slip system never got me stuck at a boat ramp or anywhere else. And it always had plenty of power to tow that boat. Fuel efficiency was always a problem whether towing or not though.
