The Isuzu Ascender is among the best of the mid-size SUVs, particularly for buyers who want a rugged vehicle. It features a pleasant cabin, versatile cargo area, and has relatively smooth and responsive handling for a midsize SUV.
The Ascender is available in regular and long-wheelbase versions. GM's 4.2-liter inline six-cylinder engine, rated at 275 horsepower, comes on the five-passenger Ascender and is the standard engine on the seven-passenger model. The seven-passenger Ascender has the option of a 5.3-liter V8 rated at 300 horsepower, an increase of 10 horsepower over earlier models. All Ascenders come with a four-speed automatic transmission. Two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive versions are available.
For 2006, The Isuzu Ascender gains an electronic stability system. Side curtain-type airbags are also optional.
Purchasing an older vehicle, such as the 2006 Isuzu Ascender, makes good financial sense. You're able to avoid the steep depreciation rates that occur with brand new vehicles. This essentially gives you the advantage of getting a 2006 Isuzu Ascender for less money than when it was new. If the 2006 Isuzu Ascender was properly maintained, you also have a good chance of steering clear of problems that would have developed when the car was new.
The amount you pay for an older car depends on various factors. One important element is where you buy the vehicle. You're likely to get a better deal if you buy it from a private party, as opposed to a dealer. On the other hand, a reputable dealer will normally have some kind of limited warranty, so you can drive away knowing that if the car breaks down right away, you'll be covered. Another factor that may affect price on a 2006 Isuzu Ascender is whether it's "certified" by the manufacturer. A certified vehicle will cost more because warranty service is provided that normally doesn't come with a used car.
Another dynamic that will play into the purchase price is the resale value. A used vehicle with a high resale value will obviously cost you more. It is expected that the 2006 Isuzu Ascender will have a fair resale value. This assumes that the 2006 Isuzu Ascender is in good condition and has a reasonable number of miles.
