1991 Isuzu Rodeo XS review from North America
"A good investment"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My Rear Differential went out.
My alternator locked up.
General comments?
My Rodeo handles great in the snow and on dry surface.
My rear went out because I have towed many cars which were too heavy for my Rodeo to handle.
I never used my power/winter mode button because I never knew how to.
I would never sell my Rodeo. It is now my friend for life.
I have a few leaks under my vehicle, but I can repair them myself.
I believe that me being a mechanic and routine maintenance has kept my Rodeo running good. I can"t wait to reach 300,000 miles.
The 3.1 liter engine is very strong and reliable.
My Rodeo is not very fast, but who needs speed in the snow.Besides, the speed limits around these parts on average is 55 miles per hour. Honda makes a good product, and for them to spin off from the Rodeo, ie: (PASSPORT) says a lot about the Isuzu Rodeo.
