Fear Itself...

This is a deceptively nice vehicle (because of Isuzu's reputation and lack of advertising, nobody knows about it, making you think it's not that good). It runs great (next year, supposed to get a 250hp Direct Injection V6 and a Diesel V6, too) but the shocks seem a bit overkill. Got some shocks from my mates in Australia (Old Man Emu- strange name/ tough, great shocks) to replace the electronic ones which would have been expensive to replace one-for- one when they wore out; just cut to the chase and got rid of them. Ride is much better, just don't have "choices"; net result is big plus. Why'd they get rid of the "black & tan" leather?

Truck is fun to drive, could get better gas mileage. Plenty of torque.

This is a great SUV for the money. You feel like you are driving a luxury vehicle, much better finish and ergonomics than Toyota Highlander or 4Runner. It gets plenty of looks and does not feel like a big truck.

Different but great

I liked the fact that the Axiom was different. The roof rack installed improved the look dramatically. This is my second Axiom. First was bought a year ago and stolen. The gray leather with black exterior is a big improvement. Engine performs well. Fuel mileage is only ok though. Considering the deals available. The Axiom is a great value for the money. I think Isuzu builds a pretty good vehicle overall. My previous vehicle was a Nissan Pathfinder which had many major problems after 30,000 miles.

Axiom - good SUV

Purchased Axiom 15 months ago and have driven it 28K+ miles. Good decision; vehicle has been reliable, comfortable and fun to drive. Last week we got over 2 feet of snow, my wife had to go to work so I had her drive the Axiom. Her comment was that it handled as good if not better than her 1997 Jeep Cherokee Grand Larado she purchased new and drove for four years, which is huge because I too liked the way that vehicle handled in bad weather. I've had good gas mileage for an SUV, it handles well on the open as well as back roads, and it is a handsome looking vehicle.
