Hi:
I had a 89 trooper, very reliable, extreme and heavy off road work
here in Baja Mexico (I'm wildlife biologist), alway I was happy
returning to my home on it, driving on streets or highway with family.
Just to get a new model, but with some fear, I bought a 95 trooper,
I've had it for 6 moths and I'm more happy now, it is good on off
roads: smooth drive and some more roomy interior, is better on highway
too. Here is very "rusty" habitat for cars, until now I haven't see
any little rust on my trooper. Go, see and buy a good one of this
japaamerican trucks!!! good luck.

I had a couple (88 &89) troopers and the problems  and the rust (and
the love - off road and dependable). So I am looking south to rust
free (or should I say salt free ) areas mid west and maybe florida??

Anyway - I found a 96 luxury for $2500 and I think that might be worth
a plane ride down and then drive the beast bak (to Toronto).  My
questions are -are the later '90s troopers pretty easy to work on?  Am
I asking for a heap of pain?  Are there years to avoid?  I know the
late eighties 2.6 4 cyl was to be avoided but I bought a couple, did
the heads - it was a drag but I had some fun I can tell you.  Now I
want some more fun but a little more comfort.

What say you?
