A Suzuki Truck?

New Crewcab On the Block

Yesterday in Missoula, MT I saw a truck that's not supposed to exist. Maybe it was stolen by the Albanian Mafia...as the folk at Top Gear would say. It was a mid-size crewcab Suzuki pickup, not unlike a Nissan Frontier in appearance. Of course, a year ago, someone around here had a Mitsubishi crewcab. I realize there are all kinds of vehicles in other markets that you can't get in the U.S., but just wondered if anyone's seen one of these. In case somebody's wondering if it's a stretched Suzuki Samurai...nope.

 

Yeah it's a Suzuki Equator, based off the Nissan Frontier. It's a good truck. The only Suzuki I wish was available here in the USA is the Suzuki Jimny.

 

I'd like it if Suzuki came back to North America. For one thing, they seem to run forever (based on my dad's experience). For another, more competition in the marketplace is never a bad thing.
