1989 Isuzu Trooper XS review from North America
"A tank! (rugged and durable, a real truck!)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Condensation in headlights.
Starter and fuel pump replaced.
Constantly squealing brakes.
General comments?
This is the most reliable vehicle imaginable.
I decided 4 years ago to stop putting money into it, and yet it kept going and going!
Started every morning, in -30 sometimes, without being plugged in!
I used synthetic oil from day 1, and I'm glad I did.
