If you're looking for a third row vehicles with DVD players you have one for you.
Electric problems. Back driver door broke. Messed up. Really reliable. Drives great. I enjoy the speed. Third row is awesome. Great for car seats. Don't like that the back seat doesn't fold down. Its tall. Have small leaks in the car which get my seat wet. Sunroof broke.

It has been in the family for a while, and we are still enjoying it.
My vehicle has been very reliable and quite accommodating for my needs. Its capacity has allowed others to enjoy its comforts and smooth ride. What I dislike, because of its dark colour it gets d***y quicker.

My vehicle has cold ac, big trunk space and larger trunk.
I do really like my car. I got it for a great price and at a time when I really needed it. This vehicle gets decent gas mileage and is not bad to ride in. I currently have issues with my battery. Something is causing it to lose power and kill the battery but I cannot seem to find the issue. W have taken the vehicle to many mechanics but still cannot resolve the issue. This vehicle is still one of the best I have ever owned and despite this issue I would buy the Isuzu ascender all over again in a heartbeat. I love my car and would not trade it for anything.
