Trooper, the tippy car
OhioWV, 10/30/2003
1993 Isuzu Trooper S 4dr SUV 4WD
Loved from day one. 10 years later,
still flawless. It shifts like a tank,
drives like a tank, looks like a tank
and is a tank.

1994 Isuzu Trooper LS 4dr SUV 4WD
The body is tough, it withstands all weather. The exterior is plush and comfortable and durable. Reliability is good it can put alot of miles on and still maintain performance,with minor to major flaws in the system. The fuel econmony is great if your vehicle is in pretty good shape. It is fun to drive. The overall performance is good.

Getting my money's worth...

1993 Isuzu Trooper LS 4dr SUV 4WD
Purchased with 50,000 miles(for about
$18000) back in '96 and now has a
little over 150,000 miles. Have had a
few maintenance issues, such as rear
main seal replacement(twice), timing
belt tensioners & idler(twice), oil
consumption(1qt/3000 miles - started at
about 100,000), and right now I have a
nagging transmission pan leak I am
troubleshooting. All that being said, …
these have been minor problems compared
to the overall reliability,
dependability, and enjoyment that my
wife and I have had with this vehicle
over the past 7-1/2 years.

Cheap, but Quality

1994 Isuzu Trooper LS 4dr SUV 4WD
I bought my 1994 Trooper from a man who bought it off the showroom floor - one owner and babied. 150,000 miles, new tranny at 90k, regular maintenance, and all of the papers to prove it.
I was aiming for a newer SUV, but for the price and after the test drive I had to have it.
Not long after we took it to Death Valley, off road, and it performed pretty well. The LS is tough for a … luxury oriented SUV. The freeway gas milage is also pretty good at around 20mpg. Where the Trooper fails is stop and go driving through LA, where it only gets around 8mpg - a far cry from its reported 14+mpg.
The Trooper also struggles up hills, but with smart driving techniques it will make it.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 1994 Isuzu Trooper, so we've included reviews for other years of the Trooper since its last redesign.
