You'll get 99.9% of the ppl on here (myself included) saying do it.
Go to a 89 Isuzu Trooper message board and they'll talk trash to you and say you're an idiot for considering it.
I would say, you'd be trading up. Even if you were to just trade it and sell it, you'd probably get more $$ out of the GMC than the isusu

MESA,
Personally, a 4x4 k-20 GMC for an Isuzu trooper of any year is a great trade !
That guy must need the extra seating area of your Isuzu, or he's just not a real truck guy. DO IT !!!!!!! :chevy:

Isuzu ugly, GMC pretty. There is no reason not to trade.

Which do you need more? Which do you want more?

Do you have a bunch of kids to haul around?

This is really a NO Brainer! But I agree, what are your needs. Do you need a flat bed truck? Do you need seating for 5?

If it's just about vehicles - your the winner for the truck. That Isuzu will be in the Junk yard in 5 years and you'll be hauling hay, pulling a trailer, go to where ever you wnat with the GMC!

Just my $.03

One of my friends in high school had a Trooper like this and we had a fun ass time beating the heck out of it, but in now way would those childhood memories keep me from making the trade.

Dude probably just needs a driver that is decent on gas.

I say DO IT!!! No brainer.

Re: What do you think of this trade?
 
I'd say it is a pretty even up trade dollar wise if the truck is in the same condition as the Trooper.
The truck has a lot of possibilities. You should be able to unbolt the flatbed and sell it or make a trailer out of it and bolt on a nice fleetside bed. White shouldn't be a problem to match at least for the time being.

Hey less of the "Gay looking" comments, my daily driver is a 98 Isuzu Trooper and before that I had one the same shape as that one only a 91. I'd still say its a good swap though especially as you guys didn't get the best engines (2.8 Turbo Diesel) in your Troopers..

Lippyp 04-27-2009 07:46 AM

Re: What do you think of this trade?
 
Dumb editing time-limit!

Heres my 91 working hard for its living with a ton of gravel in the trailer.

looks like a good trade IMHO...

maddog1331 04-27-2009 09:34 AM

Re: What do you think of this trade?
 
I would probably trade if I didn't need the Isuzu. If you only have one vehicle though and do a lot of driving to work and such, the Isuzu would get better gas mileage....

But agian, if you don't need the Isuzu, I think the worth of the GMC is higher than the Isuzu, so trade it in that situation :)

Indyuke 04-27-2009 01:04 PM

Re: What do you think of this trade?
 
As mentioned before, the truck is already over 40 years old and will last many more decades with care. The trooper may be more efficient, but it's probably not as collectable or as useful as the GMC. I say go with the GMC if you don't rely heavily on the trooper as a commuter.

Re: What do you think of this trade?
 
The izusu is for sell or trade so I was going to take the trade.. duh! Turns out the truck is not as in photo in many parts missing most and a state away. :(
