I agree about the bent steering, but that had all been cleared OK by a GM dealer down here in Alabama.
A well reputed shop?? I have no idea where to go for one that deals with a VX or Isuzus at all.
As far as steering clear of this one, its the only one I can find in my area that I can afford cash in hand. I'd rather pay 5g on a mildly ****ty one and fix it to my specs htan pay 10-15 grand on "somebody elses" that may look perfect and be modded to hell, but it would never seem like "mine". I'm sure you get the drift of that.
