Until last night, I don't think I had ever seen an Isuzu Impulse. I always hear of everyone here talking about wanting parts from an impulse. Well, I got exicted last night when I was driving around my neighborhood out here in Spring HIll, KS and saw a car with the word "IMPULSE" on the back of it parked at the neighbors house. I'm thinking about asking him if he wants to get rid of it...

Didn't they have turbos?

oops almost forgot. The second to last pic has a black area right under the "IM" in Impulse, in a better pic the blob would read .......turbo

well, if the black below the IM means it's turbo, then the one my neighbor has IS a turbo!
