I actually have personal experience with 3! my folks got a fairly early one ('79 I think) when I was in HS. that had a 1.7l and 4 speed. Strippo model, but it was fun to drive (for the day). Ended up sucking oil I think. SO, a few years later, they replaced it with a newer model. IIRC, the engine was different (maybe a 1.8l?) Or the same size, different unit. Something changed though. This was a "fancier" model, with cloth seats even! Also a stick (not sure if it went to a 5 speed by then). My wife to be had an '85, but this was the 2.2l with an AT. Much quicker (actually a little hot rod). Absolutely fantastic in the snow. Almost like a primitive manumatic, since the tranny had options for 1,2,3 (in a line), so you could hold a gear as you preferred. never got stuck in that car, and it only had all season tires. |

Replying to: andre1969 (May 28, 2008 11:58 am) Speaking of Isuzu, I find it interesting that they were on the rise in 1986 with their Trooper, which I liked with the boxy military styling. You could even get one back then with a turbodiesel . They managed over the years to come out with the wrong idea at the wrong time until , near the end , they were rebadging Chevy Trailblazers for Isuzu Ascenders..
