What is it?
2003 Isuzu Ascender
What's special about it?
Once again, General Motors and Isuzu join forces. This time, an SUV based on the seven-passenger GMC Envoy XL is the fruits of their labors. The Ascender is essentially a reskinned Envoy, so under the skin it has the 270-horsepower 4.2-liter inline six used in the GM mid-sized SUVs (Chevrolet TrailBlazer, GMC Envoy and Oldsmobile Bravada) as well as their other drivetrain components. A unique greenhouse, grille and taillights set the Isuzu apart from its three siblings, but otherwise, not much is different. One thing that the Isuzu does have that the others don't is a 10-year/120,000-mile warranty.
Why should you care?
There are now four SUVs sharing this platform. If you like the style of the Envoy but want the big warranty, then you'll want to check out this member of the quadruplets. -- John DiPietro
