2001 Isuzu Trooper

Isuzu Trooper (2001)
for sale

Price: US $3,250.00

Description:

Please e-mail and inquire about this awesome vehicle. I'm sad to let it go as I have been the only owner (along with my Dad).
Up for sale is my fully functional 2001 Isuzu Trooper 4x4 Sport with 136k miles. Automatic w/ 4 wheel drive and torque on demand system. This car has plenty of power and a really nice 4x4 system. MPG 15/19, 215HP, 3.5L V6. Seats 5 with room to spare for a dog and more in the back. I've never smoked. I have had a dog in the back less than 5 times.
I added a Thule Roof Rack, which has given me no issues since I installed it a couple years ago. It is included in auction, at least a $300 value. It is still in use about daily, so actual mileage may be higher. This is a very practical / good SUV with plenty of space in the back.
STEREO / NAV / GPS
I wired / installed a wicked awesome Kenwood DVD / Audio / Rear-Back up camera with integrated Garmin Navigation and GPS receiver back in ~2009. In entirety this system was worth about $1500. It has been working ever-since and really makes backing up nice. I updated the maps again in about 2012, and if you want to get new maps you can from Garmin and there is an SD card slot to update it with. I believe the updates are under $100. By the way, I grounded the wire that says you're in park so if your passengers want to enter an address or watch a DVD on the highway. ...
MAINTENANCE
Inspection good through the spring. I have taken good care of this vehicle and have kept maintenance records. I check the oil every 2-3 weeks, and top it off if ever needed. We have used Mobil-1 synthetic oil every 5-10k miles. Up until 2 weeks ago, I have done everything the shop ever recommended. I recently replaced the exhaust from engine to muffler to tail-pipe. It has new spark plugs and a new starter as of early December.
This is not the original transmission. This transmission is working fine and transmission fluid flushed in the last year.
KNOWN GRIPES (I'm honest, will portray this vehicle as accurately as possible. It is sold as-is):
- Some significant scratches in right door/paint - seen in picture
- Shocks are original and need replacing in next year ($500), not urgent, but would make ride smoother. It's a good ride right now.
- Left front halfshaft worn - see picture, functions fine now.
- Gas tank with some corrosion (see picture). Not leaking. I was going to replace and already paid $600 deposit for OEM gas tank. $600 pending balance to finish replacement. I can transfer $600 balance at Big Al's Mufflers to buyer, included in sale. Gas tank is not leaking, I just noted corrosion and was going to replace ahead of time. See picture.
- Damage history: front end collision approximately 2012. Required significant sheet metal repair. For this I put salvage title because it was rebuilt. Running fine afterwards though.
