Default Isuzu VehiCROSS

Who knows anything about this car? I think it looks really cool. There is one for sale at a local used car lot, and it is the first one I've ever seen.

Don't get me wrong - I'm not abandoning the Hummer ship. I just think that it looks really cool.

Can you even take it off-road? Any info would be great! Thanks!

I heard some good things about their 4wd ability. But dont know how it stacks up against the hummer. I'm guessing hummer beats it everytime. I looked at these a bit a few years ago. THey only made 'em 3 years. Parts and service might get a little harder to find as the years go by. I think the ability to see out the rear view mirror might be worse than the H3. Not much room in them. I think basically a 2 seater. I like the look. But its starting to be a 6-7-8 year old truck. And something in my mind is telling me to buy a later one like the 2001. Perhaps some issue (electric? sorry cant remember), was addressed and fixed in the later model. Do a lot of google searches. Theres info out there.

The thing is definatley cool. I've been feverishly searching (indeed using google) and I found a forum, full of active users.

http://www.vehicross.info

I should probably get some good info there. Yeah, they are older (I guess they never took off...) But if you get think about it, parts shouldn't be too hard to come by, because it is an Isuzu after all. I drive a '96 Acura SLX (an Isuzu Trooper in a tuxedo, basically), and it has not only been very reliant, but repairs aren't awful at all, plus parts are still easy to come by.

I'm anxious to read on their forums how they do off road. It's definately a unique truck, that's for sure.

I had two of them before my H2. Some 31's on it and you have a pretty decent off-roader, because of it very short wheelbase. The AWD transmisson functions pretty close to the way the H2 does (except for the full locking rear diff) 40/60 Torque on Demand normal mode, 4 hi 50/50 and it has 4 low w/Limited slip diff . Comes stock w/remote res shocks. Can easliy lift it by flipping the front ball joints and put longer coils in back to fit 33's on it.

How was maintenance costs and all that? Was it a decent vehicle in your experiance, or did you hate them? I'm totally being OCD, but I love the thing!
