200,000 miles with normal repairs (water pump, timing belt, radiator, ect,) Underpowered for the highway, but basic technology is reliable and it makes a good hunting/fishing rig for off road use. It is not capable for the rubicon trail as stock, but not many SUV's are, but it suits my needs and the square body holds a lot of volume and weight as it is built on the Isuzu pick up truck frame.

I wish they stil made these. Awesome roominess and rugged good looks. Steel bumpers- no plastic crap like you find all over the newer vehicles. A simple vehicle and generally easy to work on! I have 145,000 on it so far. U have put on 65,000. Yeah, it's a bit underpowered, but low range is nice if you need it. I've replaced a clutch at 133k, a steering gear box at 135k, a starter, and brakes. Very economical yet capable vehicle. Great 9" ground clearance with 31x10.5 tires. Keeping this one for a while-adding new sway bars and shocks, and maybe even a tube side steps and aftermarket rear facing 3rd row seat.

Bought used from orignal owner with 80K in 2005. Has 155k on it now and haven't put a penny in it except for oil changes and a few engine upgrades. Highly recommend K&N airflow kit and E3 plugs. Was getting 18 mpg and now constant 22 mpg with the 2.6 manual. A/C works good as well as everything else. Simple, efficent, roomy, tows my bike with no problem. Simple. Would like to know if anyone has knowledge of how to disconnect smog system without messing it up.

I purchased my 1991 Isuzu Trooper in June 2001. A copule of things I notice right away: huge fuel tank (22 gals), poor gas mileage (13-15 mpg), & the poor performance (140 hp). But after some nominal maintenance, it wasn't a bad second car. I accepted a job on the West Coast. So I pack up my stuff and the Isuzu and moved 2800 miles to California. The truck (loaded to it's maximun weight) performed suprisingly well. With the air conditioning running, climbing mountain ranges, at a decent speed, I encountered no hiccups. I'm now approaching my second year with 133,000 miles. Don't get me wrong, it needs work, but it just keeps running!

I bought the truck new and all but one issue it has held up. I did hve to have some head work done at about 60k but I found out it was pretty common on this size motor. The body and interior has held up very well. I wish Isuzu still made these. I would buy another.
