1995 Isuzu Rodeo - will wash off and clean up for better pics after the beach festival this weekend!
127k miles
New battery
Less than 5k miles on the tires
Full size NEW spare on the back
Garage kept until 2 years ago
Lived its life in Florida - little/no rust!
Im the 3rd owner technically - guy i bought it from in Florida "inherited" it from his dad when he passed.
A good portion of the maintenance records were kept, as well as the original manual.
Other than tires, there was about 1k worth of work done before I moved in '22.
I needed a bigger truck when I bought the farm in Sept '22 and except for a drive to Martinsville once a month to keep everything moving, it's just sitting.
And that's a tragedy.
Known issues:
1. Small oil leak - oil pan gasket - uses about 1qt every 3 months or so.
2. Rear driver window clips are broken, so it's taped shut.
3. The gas gauge is broken, so i reset the trip meter every time i fill up and dont go past 250 miles - especially if im hauling stuff in the back.
The vehicle is great on gas whether it's loaded down or not - empty around 25mpg in the city.
4. The hydraulic arms that hold the hatchback glass failed long ago. Everything opens and shuts appropriately - I just use something to prop it up if necessary.
Everything else works.
I mean everything else - these little SUVs are beasts and Isuzu fumbled hard when they quit making them.
Only real downside?
Gotta find junkyard parts - SOMETIMES carparts.com has what you need, but not always.
Cold A/C - It needs a fan belt bc it screams like a banshee after about 10 minutes. But it's cold
Heat works.
Radio works - as do the speakers (fairly well)
Windows work - except the one

No tires kickers or lowballers - the price is pretty firm
