VX Parts Update

There had been some chatter recently about availibility of VX cladding etc. being difficult to get. I've never encountered any problem getting these items, so I was curious as to what's up. Some folks thought Isuzu was abandoning the USA. Well I spoke to Isuzu yesterday and they said they were still here. In fact, they are launching there 2007 line-up right now and have a totally new US model on the docket and scheduled for 2009 launch (so much for ditching the US). On parts availabilty for VX, there is no intention of dropping parts support. If an item is out of stock in their two USA warehouses they will source it from overseas and that may take extra time. That is all.

I was wondering about that because I saw the 2007 model year preview in Motor Trend and Isuzu was conspicuously absent--not even the existing GM-model based trucks were listed...
