Rock solid truck. The best I've ever seen. Here's a cool thing in the midwest. Show me one that is all rusted out. You won't find many because of the excellent ground clearance and plastic coverings over the wheelwells. This truck is a dream for all of you who have to handle offroading and tough weather. Bring on the Landcruisers and LandRovers!!

I'm the original owner. Have 196,000 miles on it. I'm on my 3rd starter. Talked with other owners with some problem...hard to replace too. Have to drop crossmember. What's up with filling the transmission fluid...stinks! It's hard to get to and no dip stick...who's the DIP? Better replace your tranny filter or it'll start bucking like a bronco. Under powered with rather lousy mpg. Keep up with the tunes and it'll keep going. Great 4wd with studs in winter since i live in snow country.

We bought a 5spd so we were able to get a killer deal. who wants a manual 4500lb truck? it actually drives like an army truck. sluggish as hell! i dont what the auto.s are like but i presume the same. The 4wd is awesome. true 4x4 here. no major probs. i broke the clutch offroading but my fault. the turn signal "stick" fell off and the cheap glued on material on the door fell off but that it. oh yes, hee hee hee we had problems with the security system and finding someone who knows about isuzus is like finding someone who speaks ancient aramaic. dealers and company are useless but the truck is tough!

I had this Isuzu for almost three years and it has been a real blessing for the whole family. It has the power one needs and the reliability to take you anywhere. This is way better car than any Ford or Chevy SUV can be.
