Isuzu Rodeo - A quiet performer

Author's Rating:

Pros: stylish, swift handling, great cargo space, powerful & reliable engine

Cons: spare tire significantly blocks rear view (manual transmission models only)

Bottom Line:
In my experience, this SUV is a sure buy because of excellent handling characteristics, optimized interior ergonomics and its hard to describe "character" that grows on you. Read More

Took four years, but nothing comes close.

Author's Rating:

Pros: Solid as rock; Good MPG16/23; Fast; Exterior looks; huge towing capacity

Cons: Interior could use some refining. Oil consumption. No full roll bar. Heavy hard top.

Bottom Line:
Definitely recommend. Not just a car with big wheels. This is a true Truck. In a class all by itself. Read More

Decent SUV with a lot of bang for the Buck!

Author's Rating:

Pros: Price, looks and gas mileage.

Cons: Radio sound quality, slightly underpowered, getting into the backseat.

Bottom Line:
I would strongly recommend this vehicle. Isuzu gets lost in the SUV crowd because of overcrowding. They design their vehicles with "practical sensibility". Read More
