My boyfriend and I looked at a 2001 Isuzu Rodeo with 138,000 miles. We also looked at a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 104,000 miles. Which would be more reliable? What should we get?
 
i have a 92 isuzu trooper and even being 16 years old, it still runs some what good. ive gone to calgary alberta to vancouver BC many times in the old beast and it still has heart in it. but in my last trip it did break down, but for a 16 year old truck thats pretty good. GO WITH THE ISUZU!!! =)
 
The jeep 4.0 is bulletproof the 4.7 v8 is also a very good engine ive seen both go up and over 250000 miles

Jeep for sure either way
 
If the Cherokee is a 6 cylinder, go with it. The 4.0L straight 6 Jeep engine is among the finest engines ever made. The Jeep V8 had longevity issues. The Rodeo's have always had a severe rust issue in the frame around the rear wheel well and unless you live in a desert, you will have problems with rust. My best advise would be to take both vehicles to a mechanic you trust and for a couple of dollars, he or she will look at them and give you their expert opinion. Spending a little money on an inspection by your mechanic could save you a lot of money later.
