1988 Isuzu Trooper LS review from North America
"A great car, but not without it's flaws"
General comments?
The Isuzu Trooper is the safari bus made for pavement and mud. The cabin is about the size of a hotel room and the snow has no chance against it's 4 wheel drive. It could house a small family in the back/trunk. So storage space is no problem. It is very reliable, this car never seems to quit.
The Isuzu Trooper gets quite bad gas mileage (even for a 4 Cyl) and handles like a two wheeled brick. Plus road noise is quite high.
