Strength:
The fire inspector states that the fire was caused by the Speed Control (Cruise Control) Deactivation Swith shorting out. This has happened with other Ford Products but The Ford Motor Company refuses to conduct a total Recall of the vehicles with Cruise Control. What is it going to take, Death? I have been injured because I tried to get the fire under control. I will see them in Court! Sacramento Christmas Light Installation Weakness:

Isuzu VehiCross
Strength:
Unique design, off-road capabilities, fun factor, limited production: it may be a year or longer before you pass another one on the street, future collector, and you can pick up one in pristine conditon for under $10K.
Weakness:
Typical 4wd poor fuel mileage (16mpg), replacement parts becoming scarce, engine seizures related to high oil consumption, resale value. I'm a big Isuzu fan because of my experience with the Trooper. I've owned three of them, and they've impressed me with their off-road prowness and reliability. Now the proud owner of an Ironman Edition VehiCross, I pass this advice on to prospective owners.

Strength:
I talked to at least 15 Trooper owners and every single one of them loved them. Three of them had over 200k on them with no major repairs. Used Troopers are cheap. They can outclimb any competitor. A true offroad vehicle.
Weakness:
Replacing engines at $8000 a pop every 60-90000 miles makes them very expensive. Isuzu not owning up to the problem is very disappointing. I'll not buy another. I have 2 troopers and wanted another until....the 3.5 engine with 74k went kaput. No rebuilt eng available in US. Had to buy a new engine and no one wanted the old one. #1 rod bearing is spining on the 3.5 at 60-90,000 miles. Of course, Isuzu is not aware of any problems. Anyone know if that problem has been corrected in my new engine or should I sell it in a couple years? Similar Products Used: Jeep Grand Cherokee |

Strength:
Great looks, great HP, Fun to drive
Weakness:
Visibility for rear window, Initial sticker price of 30,000. Lack of real support from Isuzu for warranty repairs (had mine in and EVERY time the dealer takes over 2 weeks to repair anything. Isuzu does not give rental cars for time in the shop for warranty. Intermittent problems with idle control sensore that dealer will not fix... Bought mine new in 2002. Only had a few minor problems at first. However now I have some form of idle control problem that is intermittent. Damn dealer won't do anything because they can't find any fault (error code) in the diagnostic computer. Other than that I love the car (runs great when it runs), off road is fun and quite stable. I would buy again if Isuzu took care of their customers. Similar Products Used: Rav-4, Montero Sport, Envoy, |

Strength:
Off road capability. Acceleration. Uniqueness. Comfort level.
Weakness:
Rear visibility. Gas mileage. Interior design. This is really a great truck. I bought this used to get me through the Chicago winter. I'm used to my MR2 Spyder which sucks in the snow. This is much more fun than the spyder. My first week I took it off-roading in the upper penninsula of Michigan. Had a blast. The Jeep Wrangler and the Toyota 4-Runner both got stuck in the mud and snow (can you believe they had snow in October). Not me! I plowed right through. Way cool. I'm worried about the posting that the engine bearing failed at 63000 miles. Mine has 36,000 miles but at the rate I'm going I'll be up to that in no time. I hope this isn't a systemic problem with what I thought was a very sweet engine. If others have had similar problems with 1999 3.5 L V6's let me know....please.
