I have owned this Trooper for 26 year and it is the best vehicle I've ever owned! It needs someone with a little money and the desire to fix it up. The engine was rebuilt at 232,000 Miles and is in good shape. The body has some rust but nothing that couldn't be fixed. I last used it Deer hunting in 09. My friend had Cancer and we just road hunted in the Book Cliffs in Western Utah. We went up for a month and I would drive him home every Wednesday 180 miles to have chemotherapy. I put 3000 miles on it mostly offroad that month. That is really the last time I used it other than a quick run around the block to keep the battery charged.
It needs the WVO conversion finished. Everything in the engine compartment is done but I was in a hurry so I never have used a heated tank and fuel line. It runs great on 1/4 Diesel, 3/4 Veggie oil during the summer with no modifications and has a oil tank behind the drivers seat. There is a switch to switch back and forth. With the two tanks, it has a 1000 mile range.

I never do anything to this so it is getting run down. It needs a drivers door or to have the upper hinge welded up. The glow plugs don't work but it starts right up with a tiny bit of starting fluid or you can plug it in. I think the injector pump or injectors could use work too. It did get 32 MPG on the road before but now it's down to about 24 MPG

The four wheel drive works great and the radiator was repaired right after I brought it home from hunting. Tires aren't the best but have been on it for probably 12 years. This thing just does not wear tires! They are 10.50/15's. There is no rear seat but parts are plentiful in the junk yards for everything but the Diesel engine. This is a great vehicle for hunting or just 4 wheeling. I have had everything from Landcruisers to full sized Suburbans and this little guy will go about anywhere! I might be talked into delivering it depending on where and my schedule.

I am going to advertize it locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time and for any reason. Good Luck!!

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

Junkyard Gem: 2004 Isuzu Axiom

Sat, Jun 10 2023

Though the final Isuzu-badged car sold in the United States was the 1993 Isuzu Stylus, Isuzu did very well selling trucks here during the remainder of the 1990s. Things still looked pretty good for Isuzu as the new century dawned, but by then everybody had upped their truck game and many of the competition's offerings made Isuzus seem old-fashioned. Isuzu cooked up a distinctive new body for the Rodeo chassis, arranged to have it built at Subaru's plant in Indiana, and called it the Axiom. You won't see many Axioms today, but I found this last-year-of-production example in an Oklahoma City car graveyard recently. As we all know, the decline and fall of Isuzu in North America accelerated quickly as the 2000s progressed. The VehiCROSS was interesting but just too weird and it got the axe after 2001. The increasingly antiquated Trooper held on through 2002, the Amigo (aka Rodeo Sport) through 2003, and that left just the Axiom and Rodeo to hang on by their fingernails into 2004. By 2005, the only new Isuzu-branded passenger vehicles sold in the United States were two rebadged Chevrolets: the Ascender (Trailblazer) and i-Series pickup (Colorado). In early 2009, Isuzu announced that it would be departing, presumably forever. You can still buy new Isuzu commercial trucks here, of course. The 2004 Axiom had MSRPs starting at $24,849 for the S trim level with rear-wheel-drive and going up to $30,499 for the upscale XS with all-wheel-drive. That's about $40,703 and $49,958 in 2023 dollars. Joe Isuzu was brought back after a decade of retirement to pitch the Axiom. Note that Joe's brag in this commercial is how much cheaper the Axiom was than the Volvo Cross Country. This truck is the cheap Axiom S 4x2, which still seems well-appointed. The 2004 Axiom's 3.5-liter V6 engine made 250 horsepower and 246 pound-feet, up from 230 horsepower and 230 pound-feet in the 2002-2003 Axioms. The power improvements were the result of the switch to gasoline direct injection fuel delivery for the '04 Axiom. Isuzu was so proud of the system that it applied these badges. The only transmission available was a four-speed automatic. The Axiom was introduced to the American public as the SPYMobile in the 2001 film "Spy Kids." The body and interior of this one appear to be nice enough for a 19-year-old vehicle, so we can assume that it showed up in this place as the result of expensive mechanical problems. We'll get to the Joe Isuzu ads in a moment.
