Hi, we're after some advice as to the most reliable, efficient and generally better car out of either an Isuzu MU-X and Holden Trailblazer. Budget wise we'd be looking at either a 2015/16 MU-X or 2016/17 Trailblazer.
We've heard the MU-X can encourage car sickness for backseat passengers while we've also heard the Holden's are not as fuel efficient in practice as claimed and tend to have more issues. The MU-X seems to hold value better and is 'prettier' however we don't won't to be lured in by vanity if it's not the most practical. We'd be looking at keeping this car for the next 10 years so want to make the right decision.
Any help and opinion on the two would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi there,
We've not received any feedback on either vehicle with regards to faults to issues. This could be due to no issues experienced or very good dealer warranty and members are not worried as they come off warranty or have need to complain. Isuzu have a good name in the industry, while Holden have had their fair share of media attention lately, and unfortunately we have had calls about a few other models in their line-up as of late (Cruz, Captiva, Colorado)
