Title: 2009 Suzuki Equator - Here it is!
Post by: Davyboy on January 30, 2008, 08:45:07 AM
Well....looks like Suzuki's new truck has been leaked before the Chicago auto show.  I kinda like the look of it.

Not too shabby. If they offer a diesel I would sell the Ford.

I was thinking it looked like a mix between Grand Vitara and a Nissan Titan  :-\ Either way, I like the look. I wonder: mini, mid, full size or somewhere inbetween.

It's a Nissan Frontier.

Here are a bunch of pics.  The OD green one has our bumper and sliders on it.  The bumper is was modified to make it look like what Suzuki wanted.

Nice...... I like it.  ;D   I wonder what it will cost? I guess i need to start saving now and hope for that promotion..... Would look killer in the garage next to the sami with the Kick in the driveway! Everybody needs another Suzuki.  :)

Hope somebody makes a lift kit for it.....should be the same as a 2009 Frontier.  Maybe CALMINI will have a kit for it!  I really like the look of this truck.  I wonder if the military green paint will be an option (something tells me no).

The Frontier lifts will likely work on the Equator.

I REALLY like the Frontier, so this should be a sweet truck.  The engine is really sweet.  They have a TON of power....they are down right FAST actually....especially with the 6sp trans.

Hey Shrock.... Great work on the bumper! I should be putting in my order for your sidekick bumper soon.... that thing is bad ass! Much nicer than Calmini.

I have to say, the green one is my favorite.  I like the grill and headlights better then the other two models  :)

I have to agree.

That's a Suzuki?  NOT!
The QUAD on the other hand, now that's a Suzuki.

And Here I was thinking they stole your bumper style.  Did u do the sliders too? I think thats 265 horses under that hood.  I wish my zuk had half that.

Jim.....when are you gonna make a little wider version of your Sidekick bumper for my 1999 Grand Vitara  ;)  ??  Man....I love the look of that bumper.  Been looking at it for over a year...wishing I had one.  Hope you won't be too flattered if I find someone to do a custom one-off that looks like it for my GV.  I'm getting tired of waiting on CALMINI and Rocky-Road for a bumper.  You make great looking stuff....wish I had a more popular ride so I could take advantage of it.  Later....

BTW....I guess now I know how Shrockworks got its name...cool.  Great website too!
