Have 200k on my '98 Trooper and it still runs like new, I'll still drive it 6 hrs each way almost every w/e to my place in VT. I'd buy another but they don't import Isuzus any more, so now also have a near new Nissan Xterra and I expect it to be every bit as good. We had great luck with full size C-body Mopar wagons and sedans: two Fury III, Newport, two Gran Furys etc from the late 60s to early-mid '80s when my kids were growing up, and I'd buy one again if I only could, they were as reliable as the Japanese cars are today. Batteries, mufflers, tires, hoses, belts, that's about all they ever needed.
