Ok, you can believe my surprise when I ran across this. This is a definite step in a different direction for Suzuki. It looks to be based on the Grand Vitara. This could be interesting/wwwthreads_images/icons/smile.gif Imagine, a 4wd Suzuki Pickup!

"Imagine, a 4wd Suzuki Pickup".

Suzuki made a Samurai pickup up 'til 1984 I believe. They were very rare and looked just like our Sammys except the cab was closed off right behind the seats. The box was up high to clear the rear tires and the bed sides folded down to create a flat bed. A guy in our club has one, although quite modified.

I'll try to get a picture if possible.

RGD, I believe you are thinking about one of these. These were cool looking rigs, but they are extremely rare here in the U.S. Too bad, it would be awesome to own one. The thought of a suzuki built pickup with a large cargo bed is great. The only problem with the Samurai is the bed is either not practical or too small to haul large/long items or loose material like dirt. With this new pickup, I could have the cargo capacity and still have a zook/wwwthreads_images/icons/smile.gif. I'll take two please!

Thanks for that pic Ronin. That's exactly the truck I was referring to, except it appears this one has custom fabbed half doors. The stock doors look the same as all other Sammys.

I'll still try to post a pic of the one in our club because it is very trick.

Here in Costa Rica they still sell the susuki pick-up...
the rear spring pak is a lot stronger and longer than the regular samy... good to adapt for better articulation and clearance...
is the suki pickup geting the V6???
