1987 Suzuki Samurai JX review from North America
"One of the greatest 4x4's ever made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust fell off, but was partially my fault.
Starter will stop working every now and then.
Having some trouble with the automatic choke it won't turn off so truck idles high.
General comments?
This truck is great in snow and in mud. I use it for plowing and it just keeps goin.
I put this thing through about a foot deep of mud and water and it just crawls through like it was not even trying.
Not exactly the most comfortable truck for a person that's 6.2' but funnest thing ever.
I'm 17 and I plan on keeping this truck till it dies.
