There really aren't too many mid-size SUVs out there -- many of them are too big, making parking a pain -- or too small, so you can't use it like a truck -- the Isuzu Rodeo seems to be "just right". Good pick-up with the V6 engine and without the engine noise of the Saturn Vue (which had to rev excessively to get any acceleration). Plenty of cargo space as well with its fold-flat back seats. The Rodeo usually gets knocked for a stiff ride, but hey, IT'S A TRUCK!! If you want a cushy ride where you never feel the road, buy a Caddy.
If I won a brand-new car in a lottery tomorrow, I'd still drive my Rodeo. Or maybe I'd ask for cash and buy a new one! (Definitely go for the 4WD)
