📚 Vehicle History

Brand Heritage:

Isuzu has a long history in commercial vehicles and off-road vehicles, including the popular Trooper and Rodeo SUVs. The I-series trucks were part of their foray into the North American pickup truck market, often leveraging GM platforms and powertrains.

Model Evolution:

The I-350 was a rebadged version of the Chevrolet Colorado/GMC Canyon, utilizing GM's GMT355 platform. It was introduced as part of a collaboration between Isuzu and General Motors. The I-350 specifically denoted the 3.5L engine option.

Production Period:

The Isuzu I-series trucks (including I-350 and I-370) were produced in North America from 2005 to 2008. The 2010 model year designation in the product name is likely an error or refers to a specific regional market or leftover inventory, as production generally ceased before 2010. However, this manual explicitly states '2010 Isuzu I-350', indicating it covers vehicles that might have been sold or registered as 2010 models or that the manual content is relevant to the last known production year.

🏆 Awards & Recognition

Recognitions:

While the I-350 itself didn't garner specific major awards, its platform mates (Chevrolet Colorado/GMC Canyon) often received good reviews for their capability and value in the compact/mid-size truck segment.
