What Owners are Saying About the 1999 Suzuki Vitara

"Most Reliable Car Ever"

"Always starts. Didn't drive it for nearly a year and started right up. LOVE LOVE LOVE this little bugger. Someone offered me a price and I'm having a hard time unclenching my keys."

"Perfect for my uses"

"I searched high and low for a 4 cylinder with ABS and wound up having to travel 1300 miles to find one W/O ABS (not sure they exist). The 6cyl is necessary only if you intend to tow and are willing to buy the extra fuel. With shift on the fly 4wd and a low range it will take you most anywhere a car should go (and some places they shouldn't). I'm averaging around 21mpg in town and 25 running 75mph. It's quieter than I expected, however the ride on rough roads is a bit choppy. It can be towed with all 4 wheels on the road which makes an ideal tow car for an RV."

"Great Vehicle!"

"The Vitara handles very well. It has four wheel drive and is excellent when stuck in snow. It is an easy truck to handle because it is not too big and not too small. It gets excellent gas mileage and has a good amount of cargo space. The seats fold down for larger items. The only disadvantage that I've found is that it does not pull hills very well without shifting to the power boost mode. Overall rating: Highly recommended."
