Well I have an 85 4runner, and my Dad had a WRX...he just decided to buy an Isuzu V-Cross...I acually think they are decent off-road vehicles, from what I have read about them. He decided he wanted something that he could off road I tried to sway him towards toyota, but no dice.

Anyone know anything the Isuzu? Other than how radical looking they are?

 

I think the V-Cross is a reskinned Trooper or Rodeo. It has the same interior as one of them I think. I also heard it was good off-road. Poor visibility out the sides and back and it's a 2 door so limitedinterior space.

They are going to intro a 4-door V-cross soon so maybe your dad should wait. Personally, I think the 4 door looks better too.
