My wife's cousin has one. At first I thought it was OK but then I learned that it has one particulary bothersome design flaw: it suffers from aerodynamic 'thumping' at certain speeds, especially on an incline.
The owners manual plainly states that the thumping is normal.
If you can't design a truck body that doesn't abuse your eardrums with violent pressure changes, you've got problems.
It looks good, to me, and the Isuzu version with its Isuzu engine is probably a very reliable and capable vehicle. But I won't be buying one now or in the future because I can't stand the thumping.
If I want a vehicle that thumps, I'll buy a bigger amp and a pair of subs.
