#1
Best small p/u I've ever owned
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: Great value. Beat the other small p/u's by a mile.
Good fit and finnish. Ample power with the 4 cyc. Hope to get at least 150,00 miles out of it. Cons: No dimmer on dash lights. Overall: Would buy again for sure...

#2
Great truck for everything
Source: Cars.com

...As far as handling on the road, it's a great ride. The power steering and ABS brakes make driving it a pleasure. However, it does not have as tight of a turning radius as I would like. I ultimately bought the Suzuki Equator because of the safety ratings, front and side airbags and the price. The Suzuki Equator was the best value for the money. I compared this truck with 3 other comparable makes and the Suzuki came out on top for best value AND best drive train warranty. 7 years/100,000 mi is unbeatable. This truck looks sharp, handles well, has great base features, plenty of zip, even for 4...

..."very nice truck, i have the rmz4 4x4 and could not be happier,

very very tough truck, excellant offroading, i have a 2" lift kit on mine with stock tires and i have climbed everything and have been thru everything,
very impressed with the equator, stereo is nice and the room inside is great,
fuel economy could be better, but not too bad, i just love it and i get compliments all the time, very fun and afffordable truck"...

Beats Chevy, Ford, Toyota, & Nissan !!!!!!

...the dealer only had the 6 with crew cab and color I wanted and I am glad - smooth engine and excelleration and feel of safety Cons: No standard I-Pod have to have dealer add on whcih I did not and may later on. Overall: I looked at all trucks for many months because I run then them for at least 200k miles before getting another. I was on my way to car max to look at a used one but after hitting the dealer and getting a great deal - $21k for a new one with sticker of $26k with bed liner and bed extender I was sold - and while the sales rep was going thru the into on my truck after I purchased...

A truck for my needs.
Source: Cars.com

..."I have mixed feelings about this truck. I needed a truck to replace my totaled 1999 Tacoma.
Both the new and the old trucks have 4 cylinders. Being heavier and larger the Equator feels slow.
Pulling a 1000 pound trailer makes no difference on the small hills here in Indiana.
As I'm nearing retirement age I need a little slower anyway.This truck is what I need.
Economical. Very comfortable for a truck. Softens terrible pothole-filled Indiana roads great.
Can tow up to 3500 pounds if needed.This is a rare truck. I have put 10238 miles on my 2009 and have only seen 4...

look close

..."every since I bought the truck it has had problems with the rear door not latching.
First the dealership replaced the door switch , no luck, then the bottom latch...no luck.
Now there telling me it could be latch alighnment and the striker.
It has become quite annoying and cannot use the interior light and had to pull the bulbs out of cargo lamp....everytime the door ajar light flickers so does the lights.
I think the problem is being addressed too slow and am not sure if the local dealer is workin hard enough to fix this problem. not sure if anyone else has had this...

Junk, JUNK

...Pros: LOOKS Cons: RIDE, OVERALL PERFORMANCE, GAS MILEAGE Overall: DONOT BUY...

Great little/big truck
Source: Edmunds

...I just bought this truck and love it. Comparable to any truck in this category, except way better price and warranty.
I am looking forward to putting this truck through its paces and to see how it will hold up. Will update in a year after i use it and abuse it the way a truck is supposed to be treated...

#9
Good deal for the money
Source: Cars.com

...It is not standard. I wish it were I'm looking into getting it done.I found it odd that the owners manual dose not fit in either of the two glove boxes. The sheet metal that the bed is made of is so thin that I put about 500 lbs of weight in the bed and it flattened some of the ribs in the bed. So a work horse it is not. It takes turns wide like a larger truck but handles pretty well over all. I was shopping for a used truck but with the incentives that were offered It was about the same price. Its a great daily driver. Its looks good. and it hauls home most anything I buy. I do wish it had...
