lol, that was quite the post

So, are there any others you will be looking at? Any from the Ford family? Not that I want you to buy a ford, just love the thought out and nice written reviews

I would normally say go with the rodeo. Even with throwing out the Isuzu part, it seems to be the best fit. I have driven all three of those (short distances, customer vehicles) and I like the rodeo the most. I am biased, I admit. I like the xterra, but some things are well "overboard." For instance the roof rack that is almost useless...... Also, the "fake" first aid kit bump.... I also felt the xterra was underpowered with the 6 cylinder natural aspirated

I liked the liberty, but personally would look into a GC before a liberty. Of course, as you stated, cost is an issue (WHEN IS IT NOT?!0 so this is probably not a viable option....

Like I said before, I would go with the rodeo. I am not sure if it was still going on, but Isuzu was having a 500 dollar cash back for returned Isuzu owners.... Brand Loyalty

This is all personal opinion, which I am sure is biased, even though I did my best not too <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
