This 2002 Isuzu Rodeo Sport S is powered by a 2.2-liter inline-four mated to a five-speed manual transmission, and it is finished in red with silver lower bodywork. Riding on 16″ six-spoke alloy wheels, the truck is equipped with a removable rear hardtop, a side-hinged rear door, dual sunroofs, fog lights, tubular side steps, and skid plates as well as a rear roll bar, air conditioning, a factory AM/FM/cassette stereo, and front bucket seats upholstered in gray cloth with patterned inserts. The current owner acquired the truck in 2022, and subsequent work included installing KYB shocks, overhauling the ignition system, and replacing the timing belt, water pump, radiator, clutch, and more as detailed below. This second-generation Rodeo has 114k miles and is now offered at no reserve on dealer consignment with a clean Carfax report and Connecticut registration.
The truck is finished in red with silver lower bodywork and features a black removable rear hardtop, dual sunroofs, fog lights, and a side-hinged rear door with removable glass as well as rear mudflaps and tubular side steps. Paint is missing on the front bumper cover, and other blemishes are shown up close in the gallery.
Silver-finished 16″ six-spoke alloy wheels wear Toyo Open Country A/T tires, which are said to have been installed at 98k miles. A full-size spare is secured to the rear door. KYB Gas-a-Just shocks have been installed at each corner, and further work under current ownership included replacing the brake pads at each wheel as well as the sway bar end links and ball joints.
The seating surfaces are upholstered in gray cloth with patterned inserts that extend to the door panels. The cabin is outfitted with air conditioning, a dash-mounted digital clock, a rear roll bar, a factory AM/FM/cassette stereo, powered USB outlets, and crank-operated windows. Wear is visible on the front seat upholstery, the carpeting is torn in the driver’s footwell, and the plastics are scuffed in the cargo area.
The four-spoke steering wheel fronts a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline as well as a 125-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer indicates 114k miles, approximately 15k of which were added by the current owner.
The 2.2-liter X22XE inline-four was factory rated at 134 horsepower and 149 ft-lb of torque. The ignition system was overhauled at approximately 100k miles, and further work is said to have included machining the cylinder head and replacing the timing belt, accessory drive belts, tensioners, water pump, thermostat, radiator, and coolant hoses as well as the exhaust manifold and gasket.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission. Work under current ownership included powder-coating the skid plates, changing the transmission fluid, resurfacing the flywheel, and replacing the pilot bearing and rear main seal along with the clutch assembly and slave cylinder.
The Carfax report is free of accidents or other damage up to the most recent entry in January 2022.
The truck does not have a title as it is registered in a state that does not issue titles for vehicles of its age. It is being sold on its Connecticut registration.
