Used Isuzu Rodeo for Sale

We have had this car since 2002. The ride is "truck-like", but overall is comfortable. It is reliable. We have had only one major issue with it since we got it. The transmission failed, but the warranty from Isuzu covered the transmission which they replaced. It just took months to get it completely fixed as the transmission came from a factory in France! Replacement parts for this SUV are hard to find as Isuzu no longer makes cars and SUVs.

I bought my 1995 Isuzu rodeo 7 years ago. In the seven years since I have done little more than change the oil and replace tires. The 5 speed manual transmission and 6 cyl. engine combine the right amount of power and torque, giving me a tight and powerful ride. It handles like a small truck but with the added seat room. A spacious and comfortable interior provides plenty of room, even for me...I'm 6'3".

We picked up an Isuzu Rodeo back when the kids were in high school and needed more room in our vehicles. At first the Rodeo was appealing. It felt like it had a decent amount of room, gas mileage wasn't too terrible for an SUV, and it actually felt like a quite sturdy vehicle. After a few years of driving we had more trouble than what the vehicle was worth. Three years later we were stuck with expensive to repair transmission issues. Not only were we stuck with transmission issues, but it seemed one problem after another. I wouldn't purchase one again, although I liked the simple design of the interior, the roomy features, and the back with plenty of cargo room, however the vehicle just didn't live up to my expectations of what a vehicle should be in terms of reliability. Sometimes it's nice to have extra room, features you like, and a nice car, but it doesn't do you any good if your constantly having to put money into it or it doesn't run due to repair problems.
