Today is my first for owning a 3cyl Suzuki platform vehicle. The car a 2dr hatch 1992 5spd body has 283 k or 169000 miles and engine 100k or 60000 mi as I'm told and think correct as to the running condition ,power no smoke or steam . The interior a little tough ang needs some care all around including a muffler as none is there. I have a very lite teardrop trailer 286lbs which is very easy to tow with a 2200cc car with a loss of 5% mpg so am hoping to be able to tow with this vehicle. Before spending to much I hope to test it on a 100 or so mile run , your thoughts collectivly will be appreciated.

I am the one on the left.

depends on how you mount your tail, and what your trailer weighs loaded down. Have fun, and be safe. Welcome to the forum.

Good bye


You may want to get a tranny from a vert or a 95+ 3 cylinder car to get lower gears for towing. How fast do you drive? Lower gears really help when towing.
