Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

it in 2007, which is both good and bad. The downside is that the Isuzu has been made to took outdated by rivals A like the Navara and L200; a point reinforced when the VW Amarok is launched in early 2011. On the other hand, there are aspects to the Rodeo where its competitors are playing catch-up, particularly when it comes to value for money. At just over £.20,000, it's one of the cheapest doublecabs around, undercut only by the Toyota Hilux Invincible. But if you consider the exhaustive list of standard kit, the Isuzu makes sense. Then there's the engine, one of the most frugal we've tested in the Lifestyle double-cab class, even with its large 10-litre capacity and 160hp output. The large load area and the removable hard top make the Rodeo versatile, and it meets the brief of weekday workhorse and weekend warrior. But, as with all pick-ups, the biggest benefit to owners is in tax and, with the low running costs and high levels of equipment, there's much to recommend the Rodeo. If you buy a new Rodeo, you won't be disappointed, but we feel its rivals do the same job a little bit better.
