    We're not really that big of a market...we just look bigger when we're all in one place.

    Same principle as a school of fish.

    As I understand it, they were accepting any reasonable offer towards the end (2002 ?) when there were still some left on showroom floors.

    The 30,000.00++ pricetag for new & the fact that they're almost totally impractical, had poeple staying away in droves.

    Also, Isuzu isn't a "prestige" brand (ala s-calade, hummer, navigator, & so on) among the "drive what will impress others", soccer mom crowd.
    That'll also keep'em out of the showroom.

    Talking

    I see everyone hit on why there isn't more VX's, but back to your question. Underneath, it is basicly, 'Isuzu'. So just find someone that you trust to work on it, no matter what make it is. And if they happen to be a Isuzu trained mechanic, all the better, so go check one out. It's not a very good grocery getter unless you shop daily, Forget getting in the backseat if your old and fat, wouldn't want to even try a kids car seat back there. But damn it's a fun, cool car

    Here! Here! I took out my back seats, added rubber matting, threw down some bungies and hooked them to the tie downs, now I can haul anything! (except maybe sheets of plywood)
