    Dont buy one if you dont like banging the heck out of your head getting in and out every day, especially at 6'5. You'll hate the gas mileage....and the oil mileage. You'll not like needing a key to open the tailgate nor will you like the fact there is no rear dome light. The suspension is extremely rough and hard. You'll get stuck trying to get into the backseat so don't ever plan on going back there or putting passengers back there. You'll have a hard time finding Isuzu parts as they've stopped all vehicle imports except industrial trucks. If you have an obsessive personality you will become highly addicted to it. If all these things don't sway you away then yes, buy one. You will get beyond all these quirks (and a few more) in due time. I promise. I love mine and it's the best vehicle purchase I've ever made.
