I would like 100% but that car today, it looks fucking awesome. What is it?
Suzuki Sidekick, a later version of the Suzuki Samurai. Would eventually be followed by rhe Suzuki Jimny. They are all incredible.
It's a Geo Tracker. Geo was a brand that GM made to make partnerships with and import foreign cars without "damaging" their brand. The Geo Tracker is a GM version of the Suzuki Samarai. With some modifications they're beasts off road.
Hilarious, Geo vehicles far outlasted any crap branded by GM.
There are still hundreds of those trackers on the road today. Not a single tesla or 202x chevy Malibu etc made today will be on the road in 20 years. I see junk yards full of modern cars that look like they came from a dealership because the repairs for a new engine or transmission cost more than they are worth.
I daily drive a 00 vw golf an 05 lexus that can run far into the future with me easily being able to maintain them
Geo Tracker. I had the unfortunate luck to have my driving school lessons in one of those. It's really light so when trucks passed me on the highway I could feel the car get pushed a little bit from air displacement, which was not a calming experience for a new teen driver.
Also wouldn't recommend for the back windows being made of plastic
You can feel that in most small cars.
Ha a buddy of mine had one back in my college days. We took a road trip about 50miles in the middle of winter and it was wild how sketchy that thing was. Plastic windows flapping like crazy, heat struggling to keep up because the cabin was so leaky, awful road noise, pretty much no power at highway speed, etc. I’ve heard they’re actually somewhat reliable but it would be painful to live with for any length of time.
That sounds like my experience in a 90s wrangler soft top
Took a 16 hour (each way) road trip with 3 buddies across a bunch northern states during March back in the early 80s in a ragtop Jeep Cherokee. Snow, rain, cold. 2/10. Would not recommend.
It's basically a first gen Suzuki Vitara if you want a model you'd find in Australia. It was the upmarket model from the Sierra (aka Jimny) of that era which was also a nice little 4wd albeit with a few stability issues.
But not the Grand Vitara...Official car of Mahk.
