Isuzu Freakshow

The Isuzu Vehicross was an oddity from the get-go, but followed an interesting formula.  The good part involved using the “big” 3.5L V6 from the Trooper into a shortened version of the platform.  The odd part involved freaky styling.  That styling has aged surprisingly well in that it still looks strange today, but doesn’t look anywhere near as dated as a more typical late 90s design.  Another high point was unique remote-reservoir shocks, not seen on many production vehicles, but notably present on the Ford SVT Raptor.  Our only beef with this truck is that they all came with automatic transmissions.

Low miles and senior owned, this seems like a pretty good one.  It also claims to be the IronMan Edition!  From what we can tell, that means white paint with “Ironman” on the hood and the two-tone interior.

As something of a side note, we don’t know what to do with this seller quote:  “Custom longer passage seat tracks for easier rear entry.”  Everyone wants easier rear entry, right?
