My Little Suzi
« on: April 11, 2008, 11:47:17 PM »
Decided to go ahead and buy myself a birthday present.

1999 Suzuki Carry 4x4

I freaking love it! Drove it to work and made deliveries wednesday. It has a 3cyl 660cc engine, a/c, hi/lo 4wd and will run 70 mph.  :D
I need to upgrade the tires and wheels, install a 3 inch lift kit and change the radio. I'm thinking about painting it midnight blue.

After I install the lift, I can put some beefy tires on it. The thing is a beast off-road. It's like a Gator or Mule, but faster, stronger and more comfortable.Right now it has 12in wheels. I'm going to go up to 13in and put all weather tires on it.

What's the deal with naming transportation? It's got to be a guy thing. I think all of our vehicles have been given names in the past; even my 9 year old has named his favorite skateboard "Lorainne."

p.s. I like your vehicle. :)

TxMom, love ya to death, but did ya miss it?  Suzuki- Suzi...?  It's a natural progression.
Oh and BTW, the first car I owned was a '72 Monte Carlo, 'Charlene'   ;)  Anyone catch the reference?

I like it rpm!

What kind of mileage does it get?  Those tires should kill the mileage and ride, but if you're going to use it off road it should do well.  What does it weigh?

I think Texas counts as both a Third World country and Africa. :D
