  • Very Satified Owner - 2001 Isuzu Trooper
    By -

    I purchased this vehicle approx. 14 mos ago based upon the outstanding rebate and need for new vehicle. I was not totally sold on it when I sought it, but I purchased the Limited model which had all of the options I was wanting. Im liking it more and more and have been very satisfied with the overall performance. It doesnt get fantastic gas mileage but I have not had a single problem with it.

    I like the size and roominess of the interior. Driversite lines are good and car is very comfortable to drive. Plenty of passenger room and cargo room. However, vehicle is heavy and a bit sluggish to operate. Low gas mileage tops out at about 15.5 mpg true driving conditions. Had to have transmission replaced at 72000 miles (covered 100% by warranty). Also have had several issues with 4wd system which were only partially covered by warranty. The mechanical problems and below average gas mileage prevent me from recommending car as an every day vehicle

  • My 2nd Trooper - 2001 Isuzu Trooper
    By -

    Ive had some problems with the Transmission too and my mileage is low. The RPMs go crazy & I had problems braking. I drive a little, turn off car & restart sometimes fixes problem. My drivers seat does NOT go all the way back. Im 54" & have short legs and seat is problem along with contour. I had a 88 Trooper & loved it. I like this too but I wish the seats were manual & the CD player was of better quality. Lots of room, I can put 2 bird cages, 3 cat carriers and 1-50 lbs dog & their food, in cargo area in case of hurricane evacuation. The "check engine" thingie is broken. I had it reset twice. 2 weeks later, when I gassed up, the light came back on.

    Not enough cup holders and low gas mileage but tows great, off roads great, and packs a ton. I would recommend.

  • Excellent Vehicle - 2001 Isuzu Trooper
    By -

    I received my 2001 black Trooper for my birthday in September. Going from a car to the Trooper was the best decision. It travels long distances well and puts my parents at ease when I make trips to and from college. For outdoor lovers, it accomodates for many activities. I can fit 3 or 4 surfboards easily in the back.

  • Wonderful, Very Underrated Vehicle - 2001 Isuzu Trooper
    By -

    Ive been driving 26 years and this is by far the finest vehicle I have ever owned. The emphasis on quality overcost savings is readily apparent. Its been coast to coast twice and to Alaska once. Even at 97,000 miles ithasnt hiccuped even once. It drives and rides smoother than many cars Ive owned. It hasnt developed any squeaks or rattles at all. The engine is smooth quiet and powerful, the transmission is equally impressive. The four wheel ventilated disc brakesare phenomenal.

    I like my Trooper! I can not say enough about the vehicle itself. I remember traveling on icy roads and putting it into 4 wheel drive and the the feel of security hitting you.

  • One of the better values + big warranty - 2001 Isuzu Trooper
    By -

    After 25,000 miles this vehicle still drives as new. Very solid build quality - much better than seen on Explorers or Blazers. Gas mileage could be better but lets face it, it isnt the most aerodynamic shape... We are very happy with this vehicle and would have purchased another (in time) had they not discontinued them.

    This is an awesome car. I love the way it looks and the way it drives. It drives great! The interior is very nice. Leather, cd, wood, sunroof. I have had no problems. Great for long distance traveling. Comfortable seats. I highly recommed it!

    Simply the best all around vehicle we have ever owned! Isuzu should bring them back into production
