New info and pics have been posted at:

www.isuzu-tis.com
www.isuzmotor.com (this site has alot of cool pics and video of D-MAX too!! I reccomend the 10 MB South African commercial in "d-max video" section!!!)

Also, it has been confirmed a D-MAX derivative will hit the US, as said in Isuzu mid-term business plan:

Probably this will be it, most likely bearing Trooper or Rodeo name. It will probably also be more refined, but really the only thing I think it needs is a better dash, the rest is pretty nice, even the third row has nice accomodations.

Also, Bush is supporting the end of all tariffs imposed to help stop foreign competition, and the Republican majority is voting to repeal the "chicken tax" on imported pickups, which means that the D-MAX is aslo a possibility in the US market....

There are many good signs that are not very apparent. One of these is the financial forecast which allocates over $1 billion USD to R&D as well as ore thn $1 billion USD in facility investments. Sounds to me like new factories and new models too. smile
