(as in Singapore) You could always birch/thrash the people who burgle trade vans and pick-ups; or send em to the UK.

Get rid of the causes of crime, then do proper punishment/s (offer jail or birch; as options), then get rid of the criminals if that fails. Does Russia need workers in Siberia?

I agree with you Alex Holden/Isuzu could get away with a suicide door because the chassis is twice the size as the others. The early Mazda/Fords sagged in the middle with big loads & rough roads.

Yes they do look nice, I brought my 05 Rodeo spacecab LT with the intension of putting a tray on it but fell in love with it as it was & still have it 5yrs later.I chipped mine though & it now beats the pants off hiluxes & navaras.

If you really want to know the truth about stolen gear, try getting an insurance claim on goods stolen from a locked box on the back of a ute. I’ll tell you now it wont happen, they won’t pay. Alternatively if your back window is smashed it’s classed as break & enter & will be honoured.

On my third Holden/Isuzu space cab and luv’em. The only thing I wish they’d add is suicide doors to the space cab – makes getting things (and dogs) in and out of behind the seats loads easier. ’bout the only thing the Ford Ranger has got better sorted than the Isuzus.

Having a space cab in a SX 4×4 trayback is great but I would be very interested seeing it in a styleside body as in BT50 and STX Navara, I’m sure it would be greatly accepted in Australia especially in auto.

Why haven’t Isuzu produced a 4×4 Space Cab Auto ute like their competitors, I am sure it would sell well. The cab chassis model is OK but doesn’t suit some buyers and it doesn’t come with auto

Tony, good to see some reality thrown in to the equation.
These diesel engines are tough, like Isuzu trucks. The petrol Isuzu Rodeo 2.6 and V6 suffered more cracked heads than an airport bikie brawl, tough utes with crud engines gave a bad name.

The space cab is useless to store valuables in, because thieves can see them, and they just love smashing the small space cab rear windows, so they can reach in and grab what they want. If you want to store valuable stuff in a ute, get a big solid toolbox (on the tray, or under the tray) and then lock it with HD locks and hasps.

i find it absolutely astounding that people would criticise something that should have no negatives… if you don’t like it buy the normal ute? need four seats? buy the crew cab.

need a spacecab just like all the other manufacturers? get this then

it seems you guys work in Isuzu’s accounts or parts depot and want to avoid work or something!

having worked on construction sites you’ll find that you don’t want to leave expensive items in the tray… we often had electronics/office equipment and a spacecab is better for most people

this is a tad expensive though… i’m pretty sure the basic crew cab ute is about the same money

it should be under $30k
