Tony I agree with your thoughts about Isuzu 100%.
As for as Don's comments about Isuzu's lucrative design and development concentration...this may be very very true Don but....(and this is where I get ugly)
Nothing againts you Don but Isuzu's major malfunction over the last four, five, six years have been caused by careless attitudes from Isuzu dealers who would rather replace a $600.00 part than try to do an honest day's work and keep the customers happy.
A lot of people jumped off the Isuzu bandwagon to other brands because they kept getting sc**ed by dealerships...NOT because the product was bad (far from it) but because the service sucked!
