My good buddy Cowboy Billy owns this '94 Trooper, bone stock, that is an absolute BEAST on the trail.
He's a country boy, and has been wheeling trucks since he was old enough to see over the steering wheel.
The things he can make that truck do are jaw-dropping. He plowed through Hole in the Rock, taking most of the more difficult lines, without ever getting stuck--with 3 passengers and a trunk full of camping gear. Upper Heldorado, same thing. Elephant Hill in Canyonlands had me in tight spots two or three times, and I'm no neophyte behind the wheel, but Billy was just making every 33-shod TJ look bad. He towed out a locked up '71 Bronco with swampers that was mudding with us in Cortez, CO, and towed my ass out several times.
It's a 3.2 V6, with 255/75s, IFS, and a gas tank that's like 6 inches off the ground. What the hell? Have any of you owned/driven one of these? The thing just DOES NOT get stuck. It's incredible. I'll have some pictures eventually to post in Trips...
Maybe Isuzu resurrected Newton himself and learned a few things.
