1992 Isuzu Trooper LS review from North America
"This 1992 turns heads and makes people think it's a 2000 model."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission kicks and goes into neutral on left turns or when gas is let off and then pushed again.
Bumpy on turns because of transmission.
Needed new starter at 100,000 miles.
Engine gasket leak at 125,000 miles.
Tires run out of tread fast.
General comments?
This SUV has the coolest sounding engine, you can't even compare the solid sound of this engine with any other SUV.
0-60 in the upper 8s.
ABS is flawless.
Max torque can be felt at low Rpms.
Can tow boats like a truck.
The huge sunnroof is relaxing and a huge luxury.
Sub woofers sound awesome in this car because it is solid and has flaps for it in the back.
Looks great with rims.
Chrome lining and side mirrors.
