Hi kids!!!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Former regular here up to about 3-4 years ago, used to have a (2wd <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> ) Amigo. Well sold it, played with the Samurai for awhile. Crumpled that up and got out of wheeling for a bit. Now the g/f is in need of a new vehicle and we have the itch to have 4wd for the beach etc. Those Isuzu roots are pulling at me again.This time around I've been leaning towards a Trooper but I picked up an Autotrader today and what did we see that she actually liked? A Vehicross :laughing:. So we may actually go look at that in the next couple days.

So 7 years down the road,what have we discovered about long term reliability on these vehicles? What trouble spots to look for? How prevalent is that engine oil issue I remember? I see a few tranny posts, significant issue? Fill me in boys <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hell..I may actually make it to a 3rd ZuZoo <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
