  best liitle SUV ever! - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport
  By aquarianstag70 - March 31 - 9:16 am

  i got this little monster 2 1/2yrs ago with 52000miles on it and still loving it since that very day i took this out from the dealership. its really fun to drive and good looking SUV. took it for 1300miles long drive and there was never been a problem. looks a little bit deceiving coz size-wise its smaller, but with a 3.2 V6 engine somebody will eat my little monsters dusts. did all the maintenance by myself from oil change, air filters, sparkplugs, coolant and tire rotations and everything works perfect. the gas mileage ratio is just 18miles a gal, but who cares about it if youre loving it. ill keep this little monster the next 3 years.

  Unique and innovative - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport

  As an automotive technician, I have to say I am still impressed by this vehicle, even after being the original owner for over 4 years. Love this truck and love Isuzu.

  New Isuzu - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport
  By MikeP - January 17 - 10:00 am

  This is a good solid SUV. I have had it for just over a month and it is everything I expected. It does well in traffic as well as off road. It has good power for towing small trailers and campers. My son likes the rear moonroof. The cargo space is just enough to fit al of my hunting equipment. There are only a couple of issues, Im always at the gas pump and my right leg is always hitting the shift lever.

  Isuzu Rodeo Sport 02 - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport
  By GWise - August 15 - 6:43 am

  Good reliable little vehicle. The only mechanical/electrical problem we have experienced is a defective dashboard light dimmer switch which the dealer replaced at no cost and an fuel injection oxygen sensor. The fuel economy is not the greatest for a relatively small vehicle but its truck based construction allows greater towing capacities than similar small sport utilities. I would buy it again.

  Perfect college SUV - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport
  By Cherryl - June 4 - 10:00 am

  My parents wanted me to have an SUV for college because it was safer (better visibility) and had more cargo room. We looked at the competition, but the Rodeo Sport looked great and was the best value! I have used my RS for long road trips to college as well as around town, and absolutely love it. So far, no reliability problems and it still looks AWESOME! "Professional" critics knock the ride, but come on ITS A TRUCK. Not everybody has one, so I get lots of comments from friends- good ones! It fits all my cargo easily. Did I mention that this SUV looks awesome? Overall, the RS has been practical and fun for this college gal.

  Tough, but Cute! - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport
  By Gagen - August 3 - 10:00 am

  My Sport is only a week old...but I love it! Obviously, no problems yet, but I am counting on the 10/120 warranty if anything should go wrong.

  Does it get any better? - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport
  By ryanendres - July 11 - 10:00 am

  After almost 3 years in my 2000 Amigo, I know I made the right choice. So far I have 36k trouble free miles and I hope to see what others have with their 98-99 which is 150k+ trouble free miles. Why did I buy an Amigo? It is a rare truck since only about 10k of them are made per yr. The 10yr/120k warrenty. The ability to go anywhere. And it looks smooth

  Excellent except for gas mileage - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport
  By Steve A - July 2 - 2:53 pm

  I bought my 02 Rodeo Sport last Jan. to replace my 94 Jeep Cherokee Sport. What a difference in foul weather. With the Jeep, as soon as the snow fell it had to go into 4WD and didnt come out until spring. With the Isuzu Ive only had to use 4WD twice and that was cause I was playing around. I do miss the manual tranny of the jeep but thats about it. Otherwise Ive had a few minor issues. On the way to work one day the tranny started slipping and popping. Luckily it was only a small cracked gasket which puked out all the tranny fluid. $180 and back on the road. Otherwise just the drivers side window which likes to rock forward when closing.
