Rodeo - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By Mark Rockman - May 1 - 2:00 amThe rodeo is a very reliable truck. It is simple to go into 4 wheel drive and has minimal maintenance problems. It is great off road as well as handling on the open road. I love it..

Stylish fun - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By administrator - April 6 - 10:00 amLove it! Fun vehicle to drive and has a smooth comfortable feel over bumpy roads. The interior is very spacious, one doesnt feel "close in", that is, the driver does not "fit like a glove" in the driver seat...its not a sports car...its a SUV.

Nice - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By Durkk82 - April 5 - 2:23 pmI just bought this suv and I love it, but the fuel gauge does not work. The motor has a slight knocking sound. Over all its a very nice car, it looks good and rides great. So really I have no complaints.

Good on paper, but.... - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By reed jones - April 1 - 10:00 amGoing on 4 years, replaced engine under warranty (just barely), otherwise OK. Gives off very musty odor from AC (?!?), lots of creaks and rattles, loud road noise, lousy seats. Great off- road, fun to bang around in, but not reliable and not refined at all. Wouldnt buy another Isuzu.

1999 Rodeo - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By Sunny - March 5 - 11:16 amI purchased my Rodeo new and used it as my main vehicle for 8 years. One of the main things I was looking for was the ability to transport my bicycle inside the SUV, yet have a mid- sized vehicle that was easy to handle. The Rodeo has met every expectation and at 112,000+ miles, I am still very happy with it. I have honestly not kept up with the scheduled maintenance as the Isuzu dealerships come and go in our town, but have done the general oil changes, etc. There have been very few problems with it, and the only real negative is that it only gets about 15 - 18 miles a gallon at this point.

good car bad problems - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By mtnman - February 5 - 2:00 ami loved it for the first 3 yrs. lots of (real) off road in nv mtns & desert very capable off road, goes where some jeeps will not.Loud on the road. Abs sensor replaced @ 18 mo. Motor blew up @ 75000 mi. Dealer told me it was a common problem w/ Isuzu "you either get a good one, or you get a bad one" I got a bad one. lucky for me I bought the extended warrenty. took 8 wks to replace engine.There were 6 new isuzu in for new motors at the same time. WHY???

stay away - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By mikepe - January 20 - 10:00 ambought new in 99. replaced fuel guage $500--at 40,000 miles---at 25,000 the manifold gasket went which kept the car idle at 4,000 rpm--try to stop when your doing 55 on highway, almost killed myself, fought with isuzu to replace it or i was going to take them to court and papers---they fixed it the next day, obviously they know there is a problem, other than that the car has been fine, love the ride, the looks, and the truck comes in very useful to haul stuff.---you get what you pay for---i would not recomend this truck nor will i buy isuzu again. life is a lesson and the lesson here is stay to the top 3 manufacturers--honda, toyota, and nissan

I cant wait to buy my next Rodeo - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By the_druid - August 16 - 10:00 amI drive all over the midwest,putting about 33k miles per year. I love my Rodeo. It gets fair gas mileage, actually great for and SUV. I can hall all the gear that I need. I love the split rear fold-down seats. The seats are comfortable onlong trips, really fits my heighth and long legs. I think the look is more masculine that other "yuppie station wagons" on the market. I have had no mechanical problems of any kind.

Nice Inexpensive SUV - 1999 Isuzu Rodeo
By sl - July 24 - 2:00 amI like it a lot, and its worth the price. The only beef I have is with the cruise control: it doesnt hold the speed, has an upward creep. Had instances where it was going up by as much as 3 mph, even after hitting coast button several times.
