We have a 2003 Isuzu Ascender and love it! We bought it mainly for it's size at a reasonable price especially compared to a GMC Envoy or Chevy Trailblazer. We've had no major problems, it has held up well. We do not need it to tow or go off-road. The only interesting 'defect' is that the cruise control goes out in certain elevations and we haven't figured out how to fix that. Our beloved Ascender has approx. 146,000 miles on it and feels like it will last for many more. It's a comfortable & attractive vehicle for it's price. Wish they still made them!
