Looks very clean. Somebody getting a pretty good deal.

I currently have a '98 blue Trooper with a 5 SPD. They're cool trucks. Had another 98 before this one, and a handful of the older late 80's/early 90's Trooper ii's over the years. My dad had an 86, and then my mom a 98. Family affair.

Isuzu missed an opportunity to move into the 21st century with that one. They look like a poor mans Range Rover. If only they had better mechanicals. That's in amazing condition.

Damn I would've definitely bought that if it wasn't already pending sale.

Damn, mine only cost about $1200 total.

That was a VERY GOOD deal and I would have also hopped on it.

I oned one of those for a couple of years, also a 5TM.  Sturdy and slow.

Having never owned either, I would trust an Isuzu to get me anywhere and back home again before a Range Rover.  No idea what would be wrong with the hardware in the Isuzu.

Both of my 98+'s use(ed) oil. Like, a lot. Knock on wood, other than some minor stuff, that's been it for me.
