2003 Isuzu Rodeo Review, Dsdsds
Add Your Review! Isuzu Rodeo
| | Model | Isuzu Rodeo | | | What things have gone wrong with the car? | Have not seen any. | | | General comments? | I drove an 88 Trooper for the first 6 years I had my license. At the end of the run, the Trooper totaled 219,000 miles on the original engine and second transmission. Of course, there were some minor problems with it but very easily fixed. Now, after driving a Ford Explorer I miss my Trooper and the way Isuzu service treats the customers. Ford is just "Hand me your keys and get out there are other customers"
Anyway, to the point of the post. I just purchased a silver 2003 Isuzu Rodeo V6 last week. I have 112 miles on it, still in the break-in period and I am loving this puppy. Rides very well, handles great for a body on frame truck and the passing power is incredible! Culver Caplan Isuzu was very polite and easy to bargain with. They gave me a fully loaded Rodeo with every single dealer option including side steps and bumper brush bar at an asking price of 25200. After ten minutes of easy negociating, they called it 23,000 even. The leather is very plush and rides so much better than our 2001 Explorer. I have a feeling the Explorer will be getting some cob webs because the wife an I love this Rodeo. Who knows maybe we'll end up with a new one. I liked the 2003 minor design changes including the grill and inside instruments otherwise I would have bought the almost-new 2002 on the lot and save the 5 grand. But no, the 2003 is unbeatable with its strong chasis and terrific value. Also, for 2003 they are offering a Isuzu-made 5 speed automatic. it shifts like BUTTER! They are finally off of general motors products and once again we can all enjoy the real, unbeatable Japanese company, Isuzu. | | | Previous car | 1988 Isuzu Trooper--- 219,000 miles
2001 Ford Explorer-- Not a good vehicle at all (should have stayed with Isuzu products) |
