If your VehiCross is debadged, someone will eventually ask you what it is. And when they do, what are you going to say? If you make something up, chances are they'll recognize a line of BS when they hear it, so there goes all your trying to be cool right down the drain. If you tell them it's an Isuzu and they go "oh" and it sounds like they mean "oh, I mistakenly thought it was something special", take the opportunity to follow up by telling them how it IS special, for goodness' sake! We can either hang our heads in shame or we can do something about it! Heck, it takes less effort, too.
If you debadge because you want a different look or whatever, fine. If it's because you don't want people to know its an Isuzu, that's just silly and you oughta be out there fighting it. That is, after all, why Isuzu built your VehiCross in the first place - to challenge those notions and defy convention!
This isn't being said just to prop up the company. But we should at least stick up for ourselves and our particular trucks if nothing else. If you succumb to popular opinion that Isuzus suck, that is tantamount to admitting you're a raving idiot for buying one. Now why would you do that?
Just my two cents.
