This is one of the best "Trucks" you can buy, if not THE best. Solid, tight, dependable, durable, powerful, a real workhorse. More interior room than any mid-size SUV, and smaller exterior than the big brutes. Plenty of back seat room for 3, plus lots of cargo space. Very easy to drive around town, but will go anywhere if you like off-road adventures. I've been to the beach, mountains, and on some very rough rocky and steep trails. The low gear will crawl over just about anyuthing! My teenage daughter would rather drive the Trooper than Mom's car. The TOD works perfect in bad weather. This is just a very good do anything,go anywhere, vehicle.

43 Months with a Trooper

The Isuzu Trooper has lived up to its billing and to my expectations. The vehicle has been virtually trouble free. The only problem was a leak in the intake manifold gasket after 3-1/2 years. The dealer fixed it under warranty. It's been a great vehicle.

This is my second Trooper. Does everyone have good reliability with these vehicles except me? Had to have the auto transmission replaced at 41K - warranty (a $4000 job). Had to have engine manifold valve gaskets replaced. Vehicle has shut off twice while driving down the road. I have heard of others having these problems, but most seem to have no problems. Strange, wonder if all these bad ones were made the same week. At least I still have 20K left on the warranty.
