Dogman, these are the only trucks I sell(DAIHATSU/SUZUKI). Cant comment on the other makes. I've taken a couple of each trucks down to our ranch in Blanco,Tx, ran them hard, up and down, down and up, though creek bottoms, and tested them to the limit. I have no problem with either truck. Suzuki's seem a little bit more solid. But I kept a Daihatsu for my personal truck. It has a.c. and its coooold. When looking at one to buy, look hard. I usally dont paint my trucks. I want the retail buyer to see what hes buying befor a paint job. Paint can hide alot of things. Get down and under truck, look it over real close. I have a dealer about 60 miles from me and his trucks are rusted from front to rear. These trucks got to be comming off the coast in Japan. For a good truck with 20k/60k miles(not km's)miles look at paying 4500.00 to 5700.00. I've had a Yamaha Rino ( the best utv on the market) and it has its place. If you are going to work these trucks they will handle it. I lifted my Daihatsu and put 23" swamp fox tires on it and I love it. Knock on wood, I've yet to have any major problems with the trucks I've tested. My buyer in Japan has a check list he has to go buy when obtaining trucks for me. So far he's done a really good job of picking them. Hope you find a good one, T&H
