2009 Suzuki Grand Vitara: Who says you cant get a 'luxury' SUV for only $25 grand?

摘要

We've always been big fans of Suzukis around here. From the Jimny to the Samurai, and down to the present day, we're continually impressed by their affordability, economy, and overall stoutness of build; for a line of budget SUVs, we've learned first-hand that they can stand a lot of abuse and still keep running. We were plenty impressed with the new-for-2009 Grand Vitara when we first tested it last January, so when the folks at Suzuki asked us if we'd like to give one a year-long shakedown, we gladly took them up on their offer.
