I am looking for some recommendations on a suzuki samarui or
compareables... Something in the 2-3K used price range...
I am looking for an in-expensive alternative to something similar to a
Polaris Ranger. I want a small light reliable chase type vehicle for
trail riding in Baja, Mexico. I have concluded that a Suzuki Sam may
just be the vehicle. Are there any others that I am overlooking?
The wagon will follow groups of a dozen bikes/quads on day trips of
about 100 miles in Baja. We have one polaris Ranger that does a
fantastic job, but at 8-9K new this is out of my price range. I have
concluded that a used suzuki may do most all the terrain a
Ranger/similar wagon will do at a third of the cost.
Having said that: I would like a recommendation on the best approach.
My instinct is to buy a used late 80s stock model and apply the basic
recommendations on the FAQ section here at off-road.com (tires/lockers
+ general maintenace hoses/belts etcc...) I have noticed some used
suzukis' lifted with a variety of upgrades, (axles/lift kits/etc..)
Not being able to tell anything about these components upon
inspection, should I avoid them or try to work them into the picture
through more research etc...
Any other info would be greatly apprciated! Thanks in advance...
