 THIS TROOPER WAS VERY WELL MAINTAINED AND KEPT CLEAN. IT HAS BEEN A BEAST IN THE SNOW WITH THE FACTORY TORQUE-ON-DEMAND SYSTEM HELPING TURN THE OVERSIZED NITTO TERRA GRAPPLER TIRES HOUSED AROUND BEAUTIFUL INCUBUS-OFF ROAD RIMS.

IT IS VERY UNIQUE WITH ALL OF ITS ADD-ONS ESPECIALLY SINCE 3 ADD-ONS (HOOD SCOOP, WINDOW GUARDS AND REAR LADDER ARE NOT AVAILABLE IN THE USA)! (TRUST ME YOU WOULD BELIEVE THE RESEARCH I HAD TO GO THROUGH TO GET THEM). NO ONE WOULD GUESS IT'S A 2000 WITH 158,000 MILES ON IT. THE UNDERCARRIAGE SHOWS VERY LITTLE SIGNS OF RUST AND THE 3.5L REBUILT ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION MAKE IT RUN LIKE A BEAST WITH IT SOUNDING LIKE ONE FROM THE HELP OF A MAGNAFLOW MUFFLER AND UPGRADED 2" PIPING FROM THE CATS-BACK. THE INTERIOR IS BEAUTIFUL NO RIPS/STAINS OR SMELLS ON ANYTHING INSIDE. EVERY FEATURE INCLUDING ADDED FEATURES WORK! ALL SWITCHES LIGHT UP AND WORK, NOTHING IS BROKEN OR NON-FUNCTIONING. THE ADDED HOOD SCOOP (PAINTED TO MATCH) ACTUALLY CAME FROM AN ISUZU TROOPER, OVERSEAS THEY ARE CALLED ISUZU BIGHORNS AND CAME WITH A 3.1L TURBO DIESEL WHERE THE HOOD SCOOP WAS USED FOR THE TURBO COOLER.

THE FEATURES I HAVE ADDED TO TURN IT INTO AN LS MODEL (ALL STOCK FEATURES) INCLUDE THE TEMP/COMPASS/BAROMETER DISPLAY WITH MAP LIGHTS. POWER FOLDING/HEATED SIDE MIRRORS, SEATS W/ ARMRESTS.

THE LIGHTING ON THIS VEHICLE IS VERY COOL! THE SIDE RUNNING LIGHTS ARE BIG RIG LED ICE LIGHTS WHICH INCLUDE AMBER RUNNING LIGHTS THAT BRIGHTEN FOR TURN SIGNALING, AND WILL TURN WHITE WHEN ANY DOOR IS OPENED TO PROVIDE COURTESY LIGHTING. THE DAYTIME LED LIGHTS UP-FRONT COME ON WITH THE IGNITION AND WILL TURN AMBER WITH THE TURN SIGNALS AS WELL. ALL WIRING IS NEAT AND STRONG. THE HELLA 500 FOG LIGHTS ON THE STRONG BRUSH GUARD ARE WIRED TO AN EXTRA ISUZU FACTORY FOG-LIGHT SWITCH TO BLEND IN WITH THE STOCK ASPECT OF THE INTERIOR. AND THE FACTORY FOG-LIGHTS HAVE BEEN UPGRADED TO STRONGER BUILT DELTA FOG LIGHTS W/ STONE GUARDS THAT FIT PERFECTLY IN THE STOCK LOCATIONS USING THE STOCK WIRING.

Junkyard Gem: 2004 Isuzu Axiom

Sat, Jun 10 2023

Though the final Isuzu-badged car sold in the United States was the 1993 Isuzu Stylus, Isuzu did very well selling trucks here during the remainder of the 1990s. Things still looked pretty good for Isuzu as the new century dawned, but by then everybody had upped their truck game and many of the competition's offerings made Isuzus seem old-fashioned. Isuzu cooked up a distinctive new body for the Rodeo chassis, arranged to have it built at Subaru's plant in Indiana, and called it the Axiom. You won't see many Axioms today, but I found this last-year-of-production example in an Oklahoma City car graveyard recently. As we all know, the decline and fall of Isuzu in North America accelerated quickly as the 2000s progressed. The VehiCROSS was interesting but just too weird and it got the axe after 2001. The increasingly antiquated Trooper held on through 2002, the Amigo (aka Rodeo Sport) through 2003, and that left just the Axiom and Rodeo to hang on by their fingernails into 2004. By 2005, the only new Isuzu-branded passenger vehicles sold in the United States were two rebadged Chevrolets: the Ascender (Trailblazer) and i-Series pickup (Colorado). In early 2009, Isuzu announced that it would be departing, presumably forever. You can still buy new Isuzu commercial trucks here, of course. The 2004 Axiom had MSRPs starting at $24,849 for the S trim level with rear-wheel-drive and going up to $30,499 for the upscale XS with all-wheel-drive. That's about $40,703 and $49,958 in 2023 dollars. Joe Isuzu was brought back after a decade of retirement to pitch the Axiom. Note that Joe's brag in this commercial is how much cheaper the Axiom was than the Volvo Cross Country. This truck is the cheap Axiom S 4x2, which still seems well-appointed. The 2004 Axiom's 3.5-liter V6 engine made 250 horsepower and 246 pound-feet, up from 230 horsepower and 230 pound-feet in the 2002-2003 Axioms. The power improvements were the result of the switch to gasoline direct injection fuel delivery for the '04 Axiom. Isuzu was so proud of the system that it applied these badges. The only transmission available was a four-speed automatic. The Axiom was introduced to the American public as the SPYMobile in the 2001 film "Spy Kids." The body and interior of this one appear to be nice enough for a 19-year-old vehicle, so we can assume that it showed up in this place as the result of expensive mechanical problems. We'll get to the Joe Isuzu ads in a moment.

GM re-recalls 11k SUVs

Tue, Oct 13 2015

General Motors is recalling a bunch of previously recalled SUVs because, well, they still aren't quite fixed. The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23.

Junkyard Gem: 2000 Honda Passport 4WD

Sun, Nov 20 2022

The suits at American Honda Motor Company must have spent the bulk of the 1990s tearing out their hair in frustration as their rivals raked in big money from the sales of ever-more-profitable SUVs, even as American car shoppers lost interest in sedans and hatchbacks. Oh, sure, the Civic-based CR-V appeared here for the 1997 model year and sold well enough, but the lack of a larger SUV pained Honda more with each passing year. With the Acura MDX and Honda Pilot not ready for showrooms until the 2001 and 2002 model years, respectively, some stopgap had to be found. Isuzu stepped up and made a deal with Honda: the Rodeo would get Honda badges and become the Passport, while the Trooper would show up in Acura showrooms with SLX badges (for the 1994 and 1995 model years, respectively). Here's one of those Passports, found in a Denver-area self-service yard. Things got even weirder in the Isuzu/Honda world around the turn of the century, with the Honda Odyssey getting Isuzu badges and being sold as the Oasis. Fast-forward to 2009, and the only Isuzu-badged vehicles available new here were rebadged Chevrolets: the I-Series pickup (Chevy Colorado) and the Ascender (Chevy Trailblazer). The Passport name has some interesting American Honda history, stretching back to the first Honda vehicle sold here (and the biggest-selling motor vehicle in human history): the Super Cub. American Honda Motor Company couldn't use the Super Cub name on our shores, because Piper Aircraft had been selling a small plane called the Super Cub since 1949, so the motorcycle was called the Honda 50 over here. Eventually, this bike got a 70cc engine and became the Honda C70 Passport, sales of which continued through the middle 1980s. That means the Passports sitting in your local Honda dealership right now got their name from a one-cylinder motorcycle. General Motors has a Passport connection as well; when GM created the Geo brand to sell rebadged Isuzus, Suzukis, and Toyotas in the United States, it created a marque called Passport to sell the Daewoo LeMans as the Optima in Canada (all the other vehicles sold by Passport dealers were Isuzus). So, Honda's need to offer SUVs in its American dealerships led to an arrangement with GM-connected Isuzu to sell these trucks with a model name bearing links to both companies. So much history in the junkyard! Just as Geo-badged Toyota Corollas (mostly) got Delco radios, so did the Passport get Honda radios.
