I had a Rodeo before the Pajero. It was fine, I guess. It rode terrible and was subject to bump steer really bad. I put OME shocks on it and that helped huge but still sucked for ride. The engine, albeit gas, was not for someone who couldn't put oil into a motor. It would eat about a liter per 1000 km. This was a design flaw of the motor and I fought many battles trying to reduce consumption. All of my parts had to come from the states because none of the GM dealerships around Calgary wouldn't even admit that they used to sell Isuzu. I found the interior components to be a bit cheep and for a 2000 like I owned, I find the Pajero is better quality. I looked at a bighorn once when I was first buying a RHD. The transfer case was tied into place with one bolt and some zip ties ..... WTF! Who does that???. No that was not a factory option but it did make me shy away from Isuzu even more. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
