The Holden Rodeo TF, produced from 1988 to 2003, was a popular and capable ute that carved a niche in the Australian market. It was essentially a rebadged Isuzu Rodeo, sharing the same robust ladder frame chassis, powerful diesel and petrol engines, and versatile cargo bed. This partnership with Isuzu allowed Holden to offer a tough and reliable workhorse while retaining the familiar Holden branding. Available in both single and double cab configurations, the Rodeo TF catered to a wide range of needs, from tradespeople and farmers to families needing extra hauling capacity. Its off-road prowess was further enhanced by optional features like four-wheel drive and a low-range transfer case, making it a versatile choice for both urban and rural environments. Furthermore, the Rodeo TF boasted commendable fuel economy, particularly with its diesel engine models. This, combined with its durability and practicality, contributed to its popularity among Australian drivers.

The Rodeo TF, despite its rebadged origins, was not merely a copy. Holden implemented their own design elements, resulting in distinctive styling cues specific to the Australian market. The front fascia, with its signature Holden grille, headlights, and bumpers, set it apart from the Isuzu counterpart. Additionally, Holden engineers fine-tuned the suspension and handling to suit the unique Australian driving conditions, ensuring a comfortable ride and sure-footedness on varied terrain. Furthermore, the interiors of the Rodeo TF reflected a focus on practicality and comfort. While not luxurious, the cabin offered ample space for passengers, intuitive controls, and durable materials that could withstand the rigors of work and adventure. The Holden Rodeo TF, therefore, went beyond simply rebadging an Isuzu, offering a unique blend of Japanese engineering and Australian practicality, securing a place in the history of Australian ute culture.
