I was flipping channels this morning and caught an episode of Truck Universe on Speedà

Toward the end of the show, they had a segment about a Florida off-road instructions class, taught by a husband and wife who are both members of the Suncoast Flatlanders 4-Wheel Drive Club. --- Among all of the (many) Jeeps featured on-screen, there was a brief shot of the front of a built-up 2nd Gen Isuzu (I think it was an Amigo / Rodeo Sport), with a custom pre-runner style bumper.





I saw that this morning. Red 2nd gen with a SAS and steering stabilizers breaching a hill top. Pretty darn cool

Yeah I saw that this morning. My dad was saying "where's all the Isuzu's" and two seconds later they showed a quick clip of an Amigo. Looked like it had a SAS.

Kathy and I watched æThe WeathermanÆ tonightà
30-minutes into the movie, and again at 30-minutes 36-seconds, Nicolas CageÆs character was parallel parking (and later parked) behind a green 2nd Gen Trooper.

And yes, IÆm pretty sure that she rolled her eyes when I pointed at the screen and exclaimed ôTrooper!ö <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I don't know if this one has been mentioned or not I haven't read all of the sightings, but the other night my wife and I were watching "Something to talk about" for about the hundredth time and I had never noticed it before but after Julia Roberts sees Dennis Quaid kiss the girl in front of the First Union Bank, when she pulls off from the red light there is a trooper that pulls off right behind her.

In the movie "The Replacements". The scene where the players on strike flip over Shane's(Keanu Reaves) S-10 the second time(not first), in the background you can see the front end of a green Trooper.

Body Damage is Cool
Here's another one; the Discovery series "Perfect Disaster", in the episode which was just shown Sun Apr 9, "Firestorm" in Syndey, Australia:

The Idiots who start a major fire in the tinder-dry Bush outside of Sydney flee the scene in a round-headlite, 2-tone Trooper with brush guard.

Toyota's may be meteor-proof <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />, but as always, Fire-Resistant Troopers have a more practical application!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

I dont know if this has been mentioned or not, but in one of the opening scenes of Canadian Bacon where Honey and John Candy's character are rolling up to Hacker Defense building, there is a pristine blue Isuzu Pup or i-mark rolling away with a large rocket strapped to the top of it.

Anybody remember the TV series "Junk Yard Wars"?

In the finale of the third season (I think), the whole support cast had 3rd gen Troopers. Though they were not part of the show, they did appear in several of the overhead and widescreen shots.

While flipping through channels I notice that in the movie ô10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOUö At the very end of the movie a girls is walking to her car and in the parking lot thereÆs a red 1st gen. Amigo, only 3 cars away from the girls car, and if you look closely you can see the soft-top on the back ground while the girls is making out. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> But donÆt worry it gets betterà (IÆm talking about the migo) you can really see it in the last air shot of the parking lot, and of course the girl keeps making out! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
