Isuzu i-Seriesmid-size pickup truck line was launched at the 2005New York International Auto Show . The i-Series replaces theIsuzu Hombre , which has been out of production since 2000.Like the Hombre, the i-Series shares its platform with the
General Motors mid-size pickups. It is built at the same plant inShreveport, Louisiana which produces theChevrolet Colorado andGMC Canyon , which were in turn developed off the cab and chassis of the Thai-builtIsuzu D-Max by GM, Isuzu, andGM do Brasil . i-Series sales have been poor thus far, with just 1,377 sold from the start of production through February 2006 according to Automotive News.As part of Isuzu's withdrawal from the
