Ah, the Isuzu VehiCross, a true testament to the automotive industry’s capacity for creative overreach. It’s like that friend who tried to make sushi with a toaster – it’s got a futuristic flair, but practicality is a distant relative. With its ‘bold experiment’ in vehicle design, Isuzu managed to create a vehicle that looks like it’s from a sci-fi movie set in the year 2000, which I guess is just a few years away from now, right? It’s like they took all the money they saved by not making any real off-road capabilities and spent it on making the body look like a spaceship that shouldn’t have left the drawing board. The 4WD system was impressive, I suppose, until you realize that the most demanding terrain it encountered was a hill that wasn’t steep enough to make it tip over. As for its limited market appeal, well, let’s just say it had the same appeal as a unicycle at a motorcycle convention. A ‘cult classic’? More like a ‘cult novelty item.’ It’s a shame it wasn’t around to watch the rise and fall of SUVs – I bet it would have enjoyed the irony.
