I purchased this vehicle (AT AUCTION) in the summer of 2010 with around 150,000 and have driven it in town for the last 3 years

I drive it everyday and trust it with a 7 year old and a 10 year old to get them where they need to be,  the truck runs great

The Heat and AC turn on and run properly however the heat is blowing hot but the AC is not blowing cold, I will most likely address this issue prior to sale and pickup

The overdrive does not function but I have never needed it

I replaced valve cover gaskets as recently as January however valves still tick...Also recently put a new alternator in the truck(February)

The truck Needs an alignment

Three tires are BF Goodrich (30-50% life left) and one is a Michelin  (60-70% life left)...The spare is BF Goodrich and around a couple inches of the inside tread is going bald 

Small rust spots visible in photos on hood and headlight area and one single on driver side door.  Spoke with several Body mechanics and am told problem is minimal cost and minimal damage (can be buffed and repainted)

THERE IS NO MAJOR RUST DAMAGE ON THIS TRUCK... IT HAS BEEN CHECKED THOROUGHLY

There is a scratch visible in photo on the driver side rear bumper.  I bumped a brick wall, There is also a scuff on the passenger front bumper, and the passenger back bumper is bowed slighty but none of these issues affect the way the bumpers function and or look in regards to how they are supposed to hang...Not falling off not dangling...fully intact

 The interior and exterior are in good condition considering the truck is a 1996.  The Cargo area has a stain at the base where the doors are, I spilled a coffee.  The rest of the carpet is in good condition.  The truck has original mats.  The cloth interior has NO rips or tears and is in fine condition.  The hard interior around the cargo area is nicked and scratched to the extent that can be expected for this truck.  There are some scratches on rear passenger door near gasket where the door closes as if someone tried to manipulate a coat hanger.  Also less visible are several in the same area around driver side door and passenger front door.  The scratches visible in the photo are the worst.  Other than this and the small rust spots the paint is in good condition.  No orange peel or peeling, fading rough spots to speak of.

The console is lose one of the sides want go in but it still opens and shuts

The cargo cover is missing..The volume Button for radio is missing..The cigarette lighter is missing, but the 12V functions

I replaced a head cover gasket when I bought the truck

Early on I replaced the radiator so it is less than 3 years old

I also replaced the water pump within the last two years

In the last 6 months new brake pads and rotors have been replaced on Both front and rear ends

The battery is less than a year old and a new alternator was put in in February...Never had any motor or transmission issue just maintenance

The oil and oil filter were changed and fluids were changed and checked two weeks ago(beginning of may)

The 4 X 4 works perfectly

This truck is 17 years old and I love it but I need a different vehicle now one that I can put on the interstate for work, so I am parting with it reluctantly

My best friend is a dealer and I use several of his mechanics and I will give it a once over before it is sold and picked up

This truck is being sold AS IS WITH NO Warranty expressed or implied.. I have described Everything I know about this truck....I can provide Clear title...500 dollar deposit through paypal within 48 hours of auction end.  Remaining balance in the form of money order or cashiers check within 7 days of Auction Close

YOU(BUYER) ARE RESPONIBLE FOR PICKUP AND OR SHIPPING

If you need somewhere to store it I have a place it can be kept until pickup can be arranged.  Free of charge but no longer than 30 days please

For info or to contact and discuss the truck email me @ Elanreidcox@gmail.com

This vehicle is for sale locally so I reserve the right to withdraw the listing at any time

Thank You For Your interest and Good Luck Bidding!!!

GM-Isuzu joint venture assembles 1.5-millionth Duramax diesel

Wed, 21 Nov 2012

General Motors and Isuzu have officially stitched together 1.5 million Duramax 6.6-liter diesel engines. The joint venture between the two manufacturers started in 1998, and now the DMAX plant employs 517 workers in a 584,000 square-foot facility. GM introduced the Duramax turbo diesel engine to the US market for the 2001 model year, and it can be found trucks like the Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD as well as the full-size Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana vans. In its current configuration, the engine yields 397 horsepower and 765 pound-feet of torque at just 1,600 rpm.
Of course, the big oil burner has plenty of tuning potential as well. As you may recall, a Duramax-powered truck recently set the land speed record for towing a vehicle at 142 miles per hour.
GM owns 60 percent of the joint venture, with Isuzu laying claim to the remaining 40 percent. The facility is located in Chicago. You can take a look at the brief press release below for more information on the milestone.

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.

16 things I learned about the Isuzu VehiCROSS

Wed, Apr 8 2020

There are plenty of cars I remember existing, but actually know very little about due to the passage of time or just not particularly caring when they were new. Take the Isuzu VehiCROSS, which I fondly recall as this wackadoo off-roader from the late 1990s and early 2000s. But honestly, that's about it. So, since I've got a little extra time kicking about, I decided to fall into the rabbit hole labeled Isuzu VehiCROSS for an hour to see how much I could find out about this SUV (or "sport/utility" in 1999 parlance) that shared labeling with the watch I wore in 1999. Enjoy. 1) The VehiCROSS was not based on the Rodeo, as I always assumed, but rather the Trooper RS. Oh, so that bigger, boxier Isuzu they turned into an Acura? No, no, no. The RS was the two-door Trooper, and specifically the second-generation two-door Trooper, which I just discovered was a thing. And what a gawky, dorky, that-has-to-be-Photoshopped thing it was. Apparently, the Trooper RS was sold in the United States from 1993 to 1995, and in very small numbers. That is not surprising. 2) It was probably obvious, but the VehiCROSS was based on a concept car. Specifically, a concept car shown at the 1993 Tokyo auto show.  3) The quick turnaround from concept to its Japanese market introduction for 1997 was the result of some innovative manufacturing methods at the time (it arrived in the United States in 1999). According to the Motor Trend first drive, "There would be no time-consuming clinics, no 'courtroom drama' with the finance department, and to oversee the project, a 'Zip Team' consisting of 15-20 members was given the task of developing the vehicle in about half the normal time." Among its accomplishments, the team came up with a way to more quickly and cheaply produce the VehiCROSS' unique body pieces. Again according to Motor Trend, Isuzu used carbon stamping dies inside of the conventional cast iron dies. Though the carbon could be used far fewer times and result in a reduced overall capacity, they cost one-third to one-half as much and could be made in about six weeks – the cast iron ones would take four months and run about $1.5 million in 1990s dollars. Isuzu estimated they'd only be able to produce 2,400 VehiCROSSes per year until the carbon dies wore out. Then that would be it. According to sales data on Wikipedia, Isuzu managed to sell 2,005 in the U.S. alone in year 1 and 4,153 in total. In Japan, there were 1,805 sold in total.
