I had no idea that a rebadged Nissan Frontier existed in Suzuki trim.
I saw a GIANT Suzuki emblem on a truck coming up on us and my brain just started going through my internal automotive database and I came up empty. I simply didn't know this this existed. Apperantly it's called the Equator.
And then I promptly forgot about it until just now when someone mentioned Suzuki and I remembered this.
It was unremarkable, other than for seeing a giant Suzuki emblem.

They're actually pretty decent trucks, and a steal in the used market.

I've forgotten about those. Heck, these are rare too:
Isuzu i Series

Yup. Suzuki did this from 2009-early '13
I'm pretty sure they sold less than 10k over those 4-ish model years. It's already a forgotten vehicle.

I would imagine that would be the case. If you can find one.

Hey the S on the front of my SX4 is just as big

The one on the front looked enormous. Kind of like the VW badge on the Amarok.

And let's not forget these two rebadges, as well.
Oh wait. You did? So did I, actually...

The best part is they have a better warranty than the Frontier.
And, in my opinion, the front end is better looking.

But I have seen them before, and in quantities enough that I am forced to accept their existence.

Not disputing that.
I just figured I'd fill out the obscure rebadged Japanese pickup roster here.

Oi, just a reminder, I haven't heard from you yet. Thanks and cheers!

And a bargain since it's a nissan frontier for thousands less. Wouldn't be surprised if you could bring them to a nissan dealer for servicing.

I have yet to see one of these, well I never give the Colorado/Canyon a second look so maybe I have, but you know what I mean.

its def better looking. I was looking for a used CPOish type truck, this was on my list. Better warranty and it was less than an otherwise equivalent Frontier. Badge didnt bother me at all, I'm grown up
