Well I'm in Afghanistan, and the front gate to our base got blowed up, due to incoming mortars and rockets, then we decided to use a dead-lined HMMWV as a "front gate" substitute, which also got hit by a v-bied (vehicle borne IED) All I'm saying is Id be more than happy to use one of the new "Suzuki" trucks as a gate truck, and see it get blown up, rather than drive it.

That gold wheel would be better than the one they put in there. :P Other than that I like the look of the truck.

I don't like the steering wheel.

Yep, the steering wheel sucks. I generally drive with one hand on the wheel, resting at 6 o'clock. If they put a spoke there it really annoys me. I've noticed that they past 3 or 4 years auto manufacturers have been putting 6 o'clock spokes on their steering wheels.  And on this truck, the 6 o'clock spoke looks to be about 4 or 5 inches wide. What the hell?
