| | 2003 Isuzu Ascender - Detailed Pricing and Specifications - MSN Autos |
 | | Replacing the time-honored Trooper, the Ascender is the largest and most powerful SUV ever to come from Isuzu. |  | | Isuzu first entered the SUV marketplace when it introduced the Trooper to the U.S. market in the early '80s, long before sport-utility vehicles became the hot sellers they are today. |  | | Over the years the Trooper, like most other Japanese sport utilities, had grown in size and price. |

| | Ascender Corp introduces its first typeface family, Endurance |
 | | Endurance's character set will appeal to creative professionals and publishers with its extended collection of superiors, inferiors, fractions, small capitals, non-lining figures and an extended ligature set. |  | | The name Endurance lends itself to the fact that the typeface was designed to work well under extreme conditions from billboards to mobile phone screens. |  | | The proliferation of grotesque sans serifs motivated Steve to find a way to develop one with a warmer tone while retaining the no-nonsense feel of this type style. |

 | | The Trooper's replacement, the 2003 Isuzu Ascender, certainly is a step up in this regard. |  | | Instead of the crisp, responsive drivers the GM sport utes are in their shorter wheelbase versions, the longer versions feel like you're piloting a La-Z-Boy with rearview mirrors. |  | | It is not even remotely related to the Trooper, but you'll be interested to know where its roots do lie. |
