For sale is my 1986 Suzuki Samurai with less than 81000 original miles.  It has been repainted and reupholstered by the original owner.  Other than a Weber carb I had installed on it last year, it is all original with no modifications.  It has a full top and bikini top.  The rear seat is perfect and is kept in storage since I never needed it.  The rear brakes were replaced and a new clutch and cable were installed this year.  It uses a little oil but not much.  It did get over 30 mpg average with the original Hitachi carburetor, gets only 28-29 now with the Weber but runs like a new one and will cruise at 70 mph.  It has a Pioneer stereo with 2 USB and 1 aux inputs, CD player, and 4 speakers.  There is a box of spare parts including a complete Hitachi carb that probably needs rebuilding, some lights, new weather stripping for the windows, 2 new Pioneer speakers, and I don't know what else there is.  The two tops are getting some sun rot on the straps but both work well and should be good for a couple more years.

I bought this Samurai from a dealer in El Paso in June 2009 when it has 66134 miles on it.  It had spent its entire life in New Mexico so there's no rust except on the cheap aftermarket wheels.  The tires still had the chalk marks when I got it and the spare still does, it has never been on the road.  I've used it as a semi-daily driver but don't drive much since I'm 62 and retired.  We used it very much like a golf cart in our small community, just driving around and admiring the sunset and having a cold one or two.  We took it to the beach in Galveston one time and that's the only time it's been off road since I've had it.

The original owner told me that he had towed it sometimes behind his motorhome into the mountains in New Mexico and it has a collapsible and removable tow bar.  I towed it back from El Paso to our home south of Houston with a Toyota Tacoma and it tows just great.

 

I'm asking $5500 obo and have it listed it locally so reserve the right to sell it outside ebay.  It's hunting season now and this Samurai is ready to go just like it is.

Suzuki previews e-Survivor concept, the cutest ute yet

Mon, Sep 25 2017

If you've ever thought of Suzuki as a whimsical manufacturer of small or smallish vehicles, you're going to like what the manufacturer plans to show at the upcoming 45 th Tokyo Motor Show. The e-Survivor Concept reimagines the classic Suzuki jeep as an all-electric vehicle, and it's filled with interesting styling cues both retro and futuristic. The e-Survivor is not only lightweight in construction, it also looks like it, with vestigial wheelarches and see-through doors. The electric motors are housed in the wheels, leaving the ladder-frame construction able to be as skinny as possible. The dashboard houses large screens showing infotainment controls, navigation settings and the vehicle itself, and there are rear-view cameras in place of mirrors. According to the manufacturer, the e-Survivor is a compact SUV of "the next age," which could even hint of an electric 4x4 being the way for Suzuki to survive in this century — or in its second century: the company is 100 years old in 2020, and its concepts show what Suzuki sees beyond that. Perhaps something from the e-Survivor will make production after 2020; independent wheel-mounted electric motors would certainly suit a small, light SUV. Other exhibits are the "tall miniwagon" Spacia Concept, the XBEE crossover available in several different guises, the friendly-looking Carry Open-Air Market Concept and a "neo-retro styled" SV650X bike.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
