A stylish hauler that's also budget conscious.

1996 Hombre Review Summary & Specifications

This is a simple, inexpensive truck. As such, it doesn't offer either the amenities,

refinement or power available in more expensive vehicles. While the basics are in

place--or available as options--nobody will suggest that the Hombre has any

luxury-cruiser pretensions.

But it is good-looking, well-assembled and nicely finished. The hardware underneath has a proven record of durability, and Isuzu's warranty covers the Hombre for a greater mileage than does the Chevy/GMC guarantee.

Beyond that it offers contemporary style and pickup panache, qualities that first-time buyers simply aren't going to extract from any car available in this price range.

As a work truck or around-town runabout, the Hombre packs a great deal of value into a pleasantly low price. Those virtues alone make it well worth checking out.
