    Looking to buy a Trooper-what to look for

    Sounds like an Isuzu nailed Cat Jockeys girlfriend. I have a first gen Trooper, and I've been very happy with it. It has no business being as solid as it is for how much I paid for it. Drove it from Texas to Michigan last month, and then yanked some folks out of snow drifts when I got there. :)
