1999 Isuzu Trooper S Performance review from North America
"Everything you could ask for in a SUV, except for higher mileage"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Driver side window needs new plastic brackets for the mechanism, doesn't work. I think I have a bad habit of closing it too tight.
No other problems at all.
General comments?
Excellent acceleration, very roomy and comfortable, massive cargo area, and most importantly - extremely reliable. Overall it is equal or slightly better in quality to our Toyota Sienna. Would like better fuel economy, I drive mostly around town and get 14-15 mpg. It still looks absolutely clean under the hood!
