The really sad thing for me was I had just purchased a new , first year 87 Samurai. Would you believe I called Consumer Reports and asked them just before it was brought to the Northeast if they were going to test it and if I should buy one before they did or avoid it. I was worried that since the CJ-5 got so poorly rated that the same could happen for the new Suzuki. Of course they said they couldn't give me any information privately. I then bought one, and 1 month later I got the CR issue showing a Samurai on it's side in the snow. I was horrified, was dropped by Allstate insurance. No one would insure it after that. I decided to sell it and oddly enough a local Fireman wanted it anyway. I then bought an 88 Suzuki Sidekick a few months later. They had JUST come out and CR liked it. I still get CR because for the most part they are really good at testing just about everything, but I had a bad taste in my mouth to this day about what they said about the Samurai and how they almost made it so I couldn't sell the damn thing and almost got stuck with it forever. I loved that little trucklet. I almost bought a bootlegged Suzuki ..... can't remember what the smaller, even thinner 900 cc vehicle in 1986. That was only sold in Hawaii and Europe prior to the Samurai and sold them through some car dealerships here in CT. They weren't suppose to sell them supposedly because even Suzuki new those would never make the handling tests. The Samurai was supposedly to be a more stable vehicle and not have the same issues here in the US. Unfortunately CR didn't agree. They stopped selling it in 92 or so. Sales had dipped to just 5K a year. The Sidekick and the GM version badged the Geo Tracker sold very well, even after the Samurai slam. They left the US only about 5 years ago, due to slow sales of their latest car that got good write-ups but a CVT transmission that made the car too slow for the US to be like enough by US drivers.

I had a 1995 Samurai, I had that thing in places you couldn't walk. It was so much fun to 4 wheel in. I use to jump it, cross deep creeks, and used it for hunting , fishing, and camping. I used it for yard work too. If it didn't rust away, I'd still have it.

I had a 1988 Suzuki Samurai and it had no problem with the Wyoming winters , it was also very good on the mountain trails.

These things were GREAT. Here in the northeast the trails are often so tight and narrow, these can go places that bigger rigs just don't fit.

With the motor running, take a hose, if you got one, attach one end to tailpipe and point the other at the rear drums. Wait for it... then drive away. The heat from the exhaust will thaw the drums. Only try this if the unit is parked outside, safety first.

Bravo! These are the kind of tests off-roaders are REALLY interested to see.

A Samurai with real snow tires is by in far the most controllable and best vehicle I've ever driven in the snow. In 2wd it's just powerful enough to have fun doing low speed drifting. In 4x4, it's just about impossible to spin the tires. Short cars do want to lift off oversteer a bit in the snow but I've never found it a problem to correct. Simply put, a Samurai is a fun vehicle in the snow, capable and engaging to drive.

Buddy of mine had one and with good snow tires it would climb hills that 95 percent of vehicles couldn't in the Winter after big storms, That thing was easy to lift go from under leaf springs to over leaf springs add some brake extensions and you have a 3" lift. It was light so it was good in the mud the short wheelbase made it awesome for going through narrow ditches. Bigger tires Lockers and lower gearing for the axles are the best mods you can do to one.

My father bought my sister one of those back in 89 for school . My brother and I were so surprised that it was a little beast . It went through some of the trails that some of the small Nissan and Toyota pick up's would go through. My father took care of it big time making sure it was topped of with oil, coolant and the thermostat changed every 2 yrs. It ran forever with no issues until some drunk idiot crashed into it 10yrs later with 180,000 miles when it was on the side of the freeway cuz of a flat tire. I was definitely impressed with that little Samurai.

4WD does actually help stopping a bit. When in 4HI the front and read axles are connected, so as the front brakes harder it slows down the rear tires more than if it were in 2WD. There are some videos on KZread comparing braking in 4WD vs 2WD.

Agreed. On that vehicle, with a basic 4HI system, I think you will find that it WILL stop a litter better in 4wd rather than 2wd. When in 2wd, on a snow/ice covered road, many times the front wheels will lock up and the rears will keep rolling. In 4wd, all 4 wheels should lock up at about the same time. You then modulate or pump the brakes to just BEFORE the brakes lock up for the best braking.

My older sister had a Samurai. My parents kind of freaked out when reports were coming about about how easily it tipped over. I didn't think it was a big deal.

Those little things are awesome! They have a t-case that isn’t connected to the trans making engine swaps of all kinds super easy. My buddies got one with a turbo charged Nissian Sr-20 engine.

I put about 100k on one of these I bought new from 88-94. I found that you did best braking by using engine braking together with the brakes. In 4wd you would basically feather the brake and the clutch while downshifting to get a decent stopping distance. In reality, I also would use downshifting in normal dry city driving as well because the brakes were pretty small. All that and I can still say nothing bad about my years with Sami! I'm so loving this video series.

Best "truck" I've seen on TFL, nothing powered, no big screens, no heated seats or steering wheel, no electronic 4×4 crap, just a good basic 4×4. That's all I need. Guarantee it will give less trouble than any 70 or 80 dollar truck & let's not even talk about a all electric truck.

YEESSS! thank you for finally dusting this truck off! You'll love it on the trails in the spring. Maybe you could do a winter tire VS all season tire test with it?? How about winter tire in 2wd VS all season tire with 4wd.

Brad Conklin Yes, and snow tires and a winter- GoldMineHill-run!

Interesting video. I purchased a new 1989 Sidekick (JLK, 2 seat, 5 sp, soft top). Loved it! Remember soft top heating issue (cardboard in front of radiator) and rubber boot for stick freezing stiff (below zero MN winters) kept popping out of gear, and during our week below -10 PCV would clog blowing out valve cover gasket. Now was looking at side x side (2020 Polaris Ranger) $5k and thought of used Samurai.

Most underutilized reviewer at TFL, great work.

I owned a 87 Samurai for 12 years (original owner) and used it for off-road, daily commute, and driving on the occasional Texas Iced roads. I found the short wheel base to be less prone to tail whip. My experience mudding with it probably helped with learning how to drive it while under slippery conditions, never had a catastrophic loss of control. Also, it never took the distance you experienced to stop with M&S tires, found that interesting. The Consumer Report was udder BS. I drove the thing like I stole it most days and never had any concern about roll-over. On one occasion while being chased by a jealous ex (and his three amigos) of the girlfriend at the time, I did a move to lose them that involved braking from 50 mph to 30mph with a hard right. One of only two times I even felt the suspension lift to an awkward height the made me uneasy. If the report was legit I should have rolled it more times than I can count. I wouldn't be surprised if I don't buy one when I retire for "Sunday drives".

Throw two 60lb bags of sand in the floor behind the front two seats and you will have a beast in the snow. Also get some boots because eventually every samurai driver tries to see just how far they can go.

Yup short wheelbase you need snow tires maybe even with studs. Here in New Hampshire, they are pretty important and although it's been some time since I lived in Colorado...at least in the front range and mountains they were pretty important too.

Would love to know if you can downshift stop faster? In snow

Speaking as someone who spent 2 decades in mountains; the most important thing in snow is not a narrow tire, it is a snow tire. A snow tire has a boatload of little ridges and "blades" in the profile which grab and release the snow as they turn. The difference is night & day. Personally I find people who daily-drive on snow with all-season tires must have a latent death-wish. All-season tires just have such poor grip in wintery conditions.

Those are classic’s shouldn’t drive in the winter salt. Love it

From Canada here. Re frozen park brake. Basically, don't put it on when you park. Leave it in gear. When you drive and come to a stop, ou are heating the brakes. Snow gets on them, and the heat melts it into water. Now you park and put the brake on and walk away. What happens? That water turns to ice and freezes your park brake on. Use it to start the vehical up and warm it up. Or to hold it for a few minutes. Don't shut it down and walk away with the park brake on in winter or it will freeze for sure. Same thing when coming out of a car wash in the winter. Don't put the park brake on for a while.

Throw some 235 75 15s all terrains or mudders on that thing. You could go 30 9.5 15 but you'll have to do some hammering to the inner fenders a bit. I had a Samurai for several years. Unstoppable on the snow, they're so light footed. The bigger tires will help it glide over just about anything. And rip off the exhaust and throw a different exhaust on it, or at least open it up a bit. That little engine responds well to a better exhaust, and any power you can get out of it is a win.

Can I get the color code of this samurai please?

Is thar on your wrist a seiko skx009?

Did you brake in 2wd or 4wd?

I have a Suzuki Jimny and love it dearly. It's getting old now and I will be so sorry to have to replace it. All Wheel Drive is becoming popular now but you can't get away from how robust 4x4 is in the snow. Also, it is much more fuel efficient than the big petrol or diesel engines. Hopefully, it's also slightly more environmentally friendly. In low temperatures petrol is better (it doesn't freeze) and the refining process is meant to be cleaner. I have a Mk 3 Jimny and it is, in my opinion, the best looking of these little trucks.

how is running the engine gonna unfreeze a parking brake?

Did a good job showing 4wd capability in the snow with acceleration. 4wd does nothing for stopping ability. It actually makes stopping harder. If you want to stop faster in the snow, use neutral. With neutral, you don't have the engine trying to drive any wheels while trying to stop. Especially helpful with 2wd vehicles that are rear wheel drive.

What’s the color code of this samurai?

The only thing I don't like about these trucks is they are sprung for carrying weight, and if you are just driving your butt around they ride pretty stiff. It's fine on road, drives like a truck, but offload there is very little flex and you basically bounce over things. There are some leaf spring swaps you can do, but in stock form it's like driving a pogo stick.

I did learn one thing. over steering. I was coming down a slight hill in my Samurai. As the road gently curved to the left. The back end caught up with the front end. Without any warning. There I was spinning like a soda bottle. I hit the left bank, pointing back across the on coming traffic, that was none coming . I gave it some gas thinking a car was coming. By then I had gained control of the little short wheel based car. Went on my way. shaken from the near disaster. What caused it? I think because the road had a little due on it. and oil being on it, lead to my spinout crash.

No sun roof, heated seat , cruise control, central locking , heated mirrors etc . Just a good 4x4

what does the "JX" mean ?

Hello. Very nice Video. I like this Suzuki very much. Now I am waiting for snow :) Best regards from Germany
