“Too bad it doesn't last as good as it looks. I bought...”

written by green97tl1000s on 09/07/2008

Good Points
Good looks, good space, really like the 4x4 TOD system.

Bad Points
Engine sucks. Wait - did I mention the engine sucks? Poor reliability and poor fuel economy, even compared to my brother's Jeep Liberty and dad's Mercury Mountaineer. Windshield would ice up in Maine winters while driving down the road with the defrost cranked. No sympathy from Isuzu on the engine at all.
Seats have a "lawn chair" feel to them - no real support.

General Comments
Too bad it doesn't last as good as it looks. I bought my 2002 "Pooper" with 70k miles on it for a grand under book. Thought I got a great steal on this gorgeous 4x4. Less than 5 months later, the bottom end failed when the engine used 5 qts of oil in 3000 miles. I spent $4000 to have it completely rebuilt, only to have the engine fail again after 14k miles - this time with a religious history of oil changes with Mobil 1 synthetic. I absolutely could not recommend this vehicle to anyone, regardless of the buying scenario.
