Review
I've owned 4 trackers 94 to 96 autos and manuals. My 4x4 is my all time favorite. I can do anything with this car. It's cargo ability with the top off is endless. Strong engine, Off road it is amazing. It scampers up hills and around sharp turns like no other. Summer driving is like heaven with the top down, sun warming your body and good music taking you down the road to the beach. Ground clearance and noise (good radio fixes the noise issue) are its only draw backs.

Other reviews on the money. A decent vehicle around town with a bit of a rough ride. On the highway it is underpowered, real noisy (even with hard tops) and affected by winds and semi-trucks. It has been fairly reliable, needing battery (wiring) work, some seal maintenance and an EGR valve. The gas mileage could be better for a 4 cylinder. But if you want a 4 wheel drive, none of them get fantastic mileage. The engine is noisy, sometimes I wonder if the accelerator is a noise generator because while the engine gets louder, it has little pep. It is a good choice for a small SUV, just dont plan on lots of HWY road trips.

I bought my Tracker from my brother, who has had it since '97. Overall, it is a great little vehicle. I recommend getting the 16-valve for more power. Mine is a 5-speed and gets 28 mpg. At 135k miles, all I've done to it besides routine maintenance is replace the hubs. For some reason, mine also needs a rotor cap and button about every 30k miles. It can be a handful on windy days, but no worse than I expected of a small SUV. It's loud inside, but replacing the soft top with removable hard tops definitely helped. I would highly recommend it as a first car or something just to drive around town. Almost every week someone offers to buy mine, but I'm not selling!!

I just love these Trackers I have two of them. I am a auto mechanic and have driven them all, this is the most reliable four wheel drive vehicle you will ever own thats made in North America Cammi plant in Ontario, Canada they are really Suzukis with Cosmetic differences only. I have only done basic upkeep(Oil,tune up and battery ect.) and fixed week fuel injector of which they only have one (less problems). In 50,000 miles of use and I bought it used with 145,000 miles. You have to watch out for Kids that have owned them and abused it offroad thats Or anybody else who has. Do not buy ones that have rust under the doors or where the doors mount. Thats there flaw rust.

Wow, has this little SUV suprised us.
Over 158k miles and no problems. Great
gas mileage, 28-30 mpg. Fun on the
beach with the top back. With alittle
preventive maintenance this is one good
vehicle. Just don't expect a quiet
ride, or storage for more than two.

This car is definately a descent car
all around. The gas mileage is
descent, the car rides pretty well,
and it definately has many good
points. 2 reasons I would definately
never get one again... 1, its very
slow. And 2, it is also quite
dangerous. It is very easy to flip one
of these things, and it sais just that
on the sun viser in the car. Its a
good car, but just be careful when
driving it

The most reliable vehicle I've owned
besides my VW Bug. Travels well in all
road conditions, but requires two hands
on the wheel in a big wind. Rides like
a truck at times, but hey, what a hoot
to drive in the summer! Fuel economy
could be better; I've started giving it
premium grade gas and has made a big
difference on the highway and as with
any car...you've got to change the
oil. I'm changing mine at every 2500-
3K now. Will probably last well over
200K miles ;-)

Tracker was very reliable, fun to drive
in college. Never had any problems
besides normal maintenance. Kept it
for probably a year or two longer than
I would have if I didn't like it so
much.

This vehicle is a disappointment when
it comes to riding comfortably on the
highway, too much interior niose, is
overly affected by wind, has too small
a gas tank and didn't get the gas
mileage one would've thought. However,
it's four-wheel drive capabilities are
awesome as long as it has clearance.
Engine had no problems starting in -20
degree weather. Very reliable and
definitely takes a beating(but at the
risk of denting).Consistantly got 28mpg
in city and hwy. This is fun in the
snow and on beach with the top down,
but don't buy this vehicle for your
everyday, highway vehicle.

There is a lot not to like about this
vehicle. It's terrible on the highways,
the wind noise is overpowering and the
wind will bat it around the road. There
is a lot of exposed metal, plastic, and
a lack of "finish" inside the car. The
gas mileage sucks for the size of the
engine, and the range is pitiful. But
you forget all of this as a poor
student when the thing gets you through
high school and college without fail.
Never left me stranded, unbelievably
reliable even when I just got rid of it
(about a month ago).
