Overview & Reviews

For 2002, Isuzu has fiddled with the Rodeo's option packages and improved the available Intelligent Suspension Control (ISC) system.

• Stylish exterior, great powertrain warranty.

• Cheap interior pieces, flaccid suspension, uncomfortable front seats, questionable build quality.

  Great SUV - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo
  By Lou Lou - September 3 - 2:00 am

  I recently purchased a new 2002 LSE Rodeo! I actually went to the dealership dead set on the Axiom, but after driving the Axiom, I didnt feel it was very comfortable. I tried the Rodeo and fell in love with it! It is absolutely the most comfortable vehicle I have ever owned. I traded in a loaded 1999 Honda Accord and I like the Rodeo 10x better! It drives much smoother than the Honda did; it feels more like the ride/drive of the Toyota Camry. My mom owns the LEXUS SUV, and I actually think the ride of the Rodeo is more comfortable!

  Love my Rodeo - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo
  By Chrissy2002 - July 11 - 10:00 am

  I read a lot of reviews, did test drives and comparison shoped for my truck. I finnaly decided on the RODEO. I have to tell you even when I see my friends with the Chevys and Fords with all the Bells and Whistles I still think I made a better choice. My Rodeo will far outlast and of those SUVs . Its rugged its fun to drive its dependable (Best Warranty out there) and it says a lot when you a chic like me driving one. It is an SUV that makes you enjoy driving and trying new things with it. And lets face it, the sound system is Great.....

  Often Seen high mileage - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo
  By Mountain Canuck - February 2 - 10:00 am

  Every vehicle line has its lemons. Our Rodeo SE has been a solid and reliable all-round truck. I have been the only owner from 12 km and have beat it around in the snow and through the bush a lot. This year we picked up a 2700 lb (loaded) tent trailer for it to haul. After hauling the trailer fully loaded up a 12-15% minimum highway grade for about 40km, it didnt falter once. In fact it performed very well. Changing all fluids at the regular service intervals helps keep it going. If you are concerned about mileage, change your fuel filter. Its a $12 part and only takes 15- 20mins. Mine is changed yearly due to local delivery of poor fuel quality. Its like driving a new truck every year.

  Great Vehicle for the Money - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo
  By BSCox - October 28 - 10:00 am

  I previously owened a 2001 Rodeo Sport and got fed up with the rattles and uncomfortable seating. Finally invested in the LS full-size model. I absolutely love it. The styling of the interior and exterior are very eye- catching and sophisicated. Smooth ride, with no rattles. I should have bought this last year. The "LS" makes a huge difference in comfort.

  Isuzu Rodeo Review - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo
  By Robbie Sickel - August 9 - 3:46 pm

  This vehicle is the best SUV Ive ever driven. The seats are as comfortable as an old pair of shoes. The price makes it the best value in the business and the styling is superb. I Love It!!!

  My Rodeo - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo
  By tennisram21 - August 8 - 2:00 am

  Though i have had the truck only a short while, i am totally pleased with the look and feel of it. The exterior is very rugged looking, and the interior is VERY roomy upfront. The 3.2 engine rides great on the highway, feeling very smooth at speeds 85+. Acceleration at those speeds for passing is also impressive.

  luv my rodeo - 2002 Isuzu Rodeo
  By haroldg48 - February 4 - 3:06 pm

  It rides a little Truck-like, but compared to other similar sized SUVs we drove, it was the best (Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, Montero). Since buying it, love it!
