I like the styling and simplicity of it. You could use it on/off road and still have it look decent enough to go out with the spouse. The OD green one is kinda cool if you like the para-military look or for hunting purposes. In my opinion, it's about time the made a p/u to fit into the market. Now if they would make one with a diesel motor they would probably sell like crazy, especially overseas.
Why is there enough religion to encite hatered and wars, but not enough to enstill tolerance and peace?

I like the OLIVE .It looks 'bad' and nice without fancy...Like military car...just for 'bad' roads
On the other hand I would never buy a car like that....
WHY THEY DON'T MAKE A CAR LIKE SAMY OR VITARA. NOT ANOTHER SUV BUT A REALLY 4X4 FOR MOUNTAINS NOT FOR CITY!!
Vitara 1.6 2d '91, 2''1/2 lift (OME shocks + Suplex coil-springs), 235/75/15 Maxxis 8060,full system exhaust by Calmini, K&N filter, 15x7 alloys zero offset

I love the look of those integrated roof light in the rack on the quad.  If those bumpers are acutally as stout as they look there is no reason to swap them I can see, except maybe for a winch.  A factory winch option on this model would be awesome. A modest lift and some under armor and it looks trail ready from the start. 

Definetly the best looking truck I have seen in a long time and its not boat like.  I may have to own a quad.

Does anyone know if the dealers would have better information on these then what is posted on the site or is it too soon?

I like the middle (Black with strips, trimmed out nicely) of the three mostly (towing the boat).  I drive mostly streets and highways but do go off road on occasion.  I travel with others and sometime take customers with me.
I really would want the 4-door version (crew cab?) with the leather trimmings of the "gentlemanly type", V6 4.0 liter, auto, power everything like my '06 Grand Vitara Premium.

Sure does look like a Nissan.  I like the QUAD (Olive drab one), I think I'm more drawn to it because of the tires... bumper... lights.... rock sliders. If I were to pick out of the other two,only because that is how they would come from the dealer... it would be the yellow one. Looks like a mini Avalanche from the back. The black one reminds me of a Ford so thats a no go... LOL
Quit making excuses Jeep... just hook that damn tow strap up and I can pull you out....

I'm as big a Zuk nut as any of you....but I don't have any use for another SUV wannabe truck. Already got a 2000 Yellow Exterra and I haul stuff in a 74 4x4 F150/400ci. Both are gas guzzlers but serve a purpose. Being Army I like olive drab  but that don't make it "TUFF".  My 74 F150 ( no cup holders or blue tooth )  will still be hauling stuff years after all the trim falls off those "trucks".

Sorry for all the negativity but I don't get it ...probably too old

Because the don't like us (Samurai owners), and don't want to build a true 4x4 that is closer to the roots of ASMC.

Too bad, as my next new auto purchase will be a Rubicon.  At least ONE automaker actually cares enuff to build what I (and every other Suzuki off-roader) really want.  ASMC can go in the toilet for all I care.

Stlye, bumber, roof lights, grill, but not the colour, AND NEEDS A DESIEL!!!!!

Like the Bright yellow but hate the "vinly's".  Bright colours IN and OUTSIDE.  Always liked the old Sammies and Sidekicks that had some of the outside paint on the inside.

Give me the Green one in the Yellow paint and interior (like the new Ford colours), with a Desiel that does not suck like when Jeep tried with the Liberty.

Got that Ford, Chevy, Dodge, etc.  Mid-size Pickup, Bright Colour, Crazy 4x4 to save $$ on aftermarket, AND A |removethispart|@$#&* DESIEL!!!!  Got my credit card READY!!!!!!

Who needs a RE-BADGED anything? If SUZUKI brings something to the table, I'll look at it. Otherwise, why bother with something I can basicly allready buy?

X2 I just don't get why anyone would buy this instead of the Nissan.  At least the Xhead concept was new and different.

Suzuki needs to go back to making small, fuel efficient, body-on-frame, convertible SUVs.  Maybe even a real compact pickup...seeing that all the other manufacturers are making their compact pickups larger (mid-size) and less efficient.

Yeah what up with the mid-sized trucks.... what happened to mini pickups?  In the 70's they were little.... but pretty gut less.  Just think what they do now with today's technology and efficency.

Exactly...there's no reason a (Nissan 720 sized) compact pickup couldn't get mpg in the high 30s or better with today's technology.  Keep the weight low and the engine small (120 hp max).  The only problem I can think of would be passing our current crash standards (but hey, they did it with the Smart car).

Yeah whatever happened to the mitsubishi mighty max too!
In my opinion I definately think the olive drab looks the best, the body is definately the same as the frontier, but theres nothin wrong with that, suzuki's version just looks better with that nasty grill and bumper. I do think my yellow 04 gixxer would look pretty fancy sitting in the bed of the rm-z version though.
Heres a comparison of the equator with a frontier pic I found on google..

I like the Green one. Looks more military. I do not like the yellow one.
