Faults:

We have driven this Isuzu beyond all expectations. The only mechanical malfunction was the horn unit after two years of ownership. We really loaded this buster with a family of four, and all required camping gear every weekend all summer long for years going from Massachusetts to Maine.

We could not part with such a dependable unit, so now my 16 year old son has the keys.

After all these years of ownership, brakes, exhaust and belts, light bulbs, wipers and tires have been replaced. Otherwise - all original and proud of it!!!

General Comments:

Not a creature comfort vehicle.

Faults:

Burns a quart of oil every 300 miles - oooooh!

General Comments:

It spends more time on the trail in 4L than most SUV's. Goes anywhere I point it.

Very spartan interior although that is what I was looking for (less features, less parts to break).

Rear disc brakes on an SUV?? WOW! At $2900 it was an incredible deal.

NOTE: with the 2.6 4 cylinder you must remember to have the valve clearance adjusted at recommended intervals!!!! Why is the distributor so close to the firewall?

Faults:

Gas pump, replaced three times, constant problems with the engine shutting off in the middle of the road.

General Comments:

Stay away from the old models, maybe the new ones have been updated and improved but the old model offers a rough ride and is not reliable. Towing costs have been more than gas for me in an average month.
