Just get the 6.7-liter Scorpion engine. It is better than any gasoline engine and long life.
 
My 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GT has 181,000 miles on it. The front struts haven't been replaced since 181K. Replaced new rear struts last summer. The front strut will replace by this month because they start a little noisy and some knocks when I steer the wheels at the left and right turns.
 
My 01 Infiniti QX4 HAD 227,000km on it, until last week when I went to get an oil change and the guys forgot to torque the plug correctly. I drove down the street after shopping next door to my dealership for an hour and BOOM my engine blew. So my $42.83 oil change gets me a new engine with 92,000km on it. Of course it's paid for by my dealership.

So since the new year, I've only driven my car for about a week. Jan 4th I got t-boned and my car was in the shop for like 3 weeks, and then I went for that oil change a few days after getting my car back. lol and now it's gone for another 2 weeks. Atleast in the meantime I get to drive a fun 05 maxima 3.5se

Wow, lot of vehicles!
 
update...my Isuzu now got 123k on her after 4 days in the shop to fix a valve cover gasket and axle seal leaks. Still gotta replace the damned cats cuz they overheat after running it 70 mph on interstate and steam coming outta hood. Then to add insult to injury I gotta replace the cam sensor cause it threw a code on the computer as low voltage. I only drove the Rodeo 9k miles since I bought it last year. GM Holden motors drive me fucken batty and lately Ive been thinking about pulling the motor and replace it with a 5.0 Mustang motor after I read a Isuzu forum post about a guy who did the swap on his 2001 Rodeo. Only things that set me back was $ and the torque the 5.0 Mustang motor would twist the frame.

The ZX2 Escort is now approaching 160k with only a new battery for it.

I worked on a 1998 Ford Contour SE w/a 2.0L VETEC VCT last Saturday that was towed for no start. I hooked up a scan tool to get codes but nothing. I put my hand on the steering wheel and turned the ignition switch w/ my another hand, feel the engine was running freewheel while crank. Obivously broken timing belt. I replaced T-belt, tensioner, idler rollers and water pump. I was uncomfort with nasty engine like oil leaks such as VC gasket and oil pan gasket cuz of excessive blowbys due to restrict PCV system.
The 5.0 Mustang motor in a Rodeo is awesome and get almost same mpg as the 3.2L V6. I dont think the 5.0L motor will twist the Rodeo frame, like to twist the leaf springs or feel the rear differential housing bounces like basketball. Im not sure if the newer Rodero still use 4 link rear suspension.

Do some more research finding out a more reliable 4 cylinder engine and components will bolt on your Isuzu instead of that crappy GM-Holden motor. :P I'm sure there are others that will do the job.
