Suzuki 4x4 Forum / Re: Samurai Owners - are we antique fans now?
« Last post by ebewley on February 01, 2025, 10:43:15 AM »Hi Jonny - Glad to see you back. I really like your idea of gathering one enthusiast at time and putting together a group activity to share a positive experience together! Keep us in the loop, I'd love to get out there and say Hi and see your rig someday.

It’s been a long time since I last visited Zukiworld. I guess you could say that I’ve had quite a few life changes over the last 10 years. Positive ones-marriage and kids.It was about time.
I still have all of my Suzukis too.
To this day I occasionally see Samurais on the road here in northeast Oklahoma. . Probably about the same as I did 10 years ago. No more, no less. However, I’ve seen a very sharp drop off in Trackers and Sidekicks. They appear to be almost as rare as Samurais now. Even Jeep YJs are a very rare sight.
As far as Suzukis now being antiques…20 years ago I had people chatting me up about their Samurai experiences. They have always been that kind of vehicle.They always left a deep impression.
Currently, I am building up my own Samurai club, one enthusiast at a time.My wife and I have three young boys and a fourth son due in about 30 days. All those little hands to help me repair, modify, and resurrect our Suzukis.
In the upcoming years I hope to put an annual Suzuki get together/run in northeast Oklahoma. Probably a spring or fall run. I am just waiting for more of my kids to get a little older and out of the diaper phase. I’ll be happy when the current middle one is out.Hopefully this spring.
