Hey PiPs, that purple XL7 is quite a rugged battlewagon fella'. Suzuki really manufactured solidly built vehicles. To this day not entirely sure WHY they decided to abandon the U.S. market close to ten years ago. As an owner maybe you have some insight on their inability to last in the lucrative American market ?!? High Five Yo ! 🖐 🔛 🚧
It really is. When they partnered with GM, there quality went downhill. The Equator was a great truck, basically a rebadged Frontier with a better warranty for less money but nobody bought it.
They were killing U.S. Made 4x4´s with the Samurai, so there was a huge campaign to kick Suzuki out of the country (to the point of creating a course with ramps on the curves in order to make the Samurai to tip over) all this was exposed years later. There was even a reporter who had an accident (I think he worked for consumer's report) but since the whole scheme to get rid of Suzuki went public, maybe that accident was made up.
Sounds like that spring mounted joint between the manifold Y pipe and the catalytic converter popped out. Happens all the time. Lose the cat and weld the straight pipe to the Y pipe. I've done it on all 3 of my XL7s. And let Greta growl at you anyway.
The exhaust was already rigged up before we set out, as you can see it didn’t last very long! All the hangers in the rear were broken off. Straight pipe does sound good though.
We had planned to go to Rausch Creek over Thanksgiving weekend but it fell through. There is defiantly potential for her to pee her pants while off roading!
Brian, great video mate, question when you and your wife testing Bronco off road will be funny? :-) I think everyone wait for this video… Good luck Bro
Too funny, I am no off roader but I blame the owner of the Ranger. Why would you stop in the middle of a trail when you can't see the vehicle behind you or that vehicle can't see you?
@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS your better off I got one off ebay that was supposed to be direct fit muffler and tail pipe it didn't come with nuts and I couldn't find any that would thread onto the studs in the muffler and none of the gaskets they provided were right!

Glad you liked it!
A fantastic sime? Haha! Love the way you talk Brian!
Thanks! 😃
I would like to see Mrs Pips take her Bronco out to that trail.
Me too! We had planned on taking it to Rausch Creek over Thanksgiving weekend but it fell through.
Good share Brian! Glad you found the content
Thanks for watching!
Pretty cool watching the Suzuki off road 👍
Thanks for watching!
Will you do any derby with Mike again??? That was so hilarious 😂
I have mentioned it to him multiple times!

Damn that is funny! When are you guys gonna take the bronco there? But don't piss in the car 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Awesome video Brian!
Thanks buddy!

Thanks, she wants to go to the Bronco off rodeo first and lean more before we go out by ourselves.

Well, I was going at least three times too fast, the XL7 is a 🚀
Awesome vid. I’m local to you in moon where is the off-road area at
Thanks for watching! This is in Wellsville OH.
Thank you sir keep up the good vids,and will you take the bronco there
👍
hope you didnt make the same mistake i did and buy the xl7 muffler off e bay 🤣🤣 love my xl7!!
That would have been an upgrade! We welded a used muffler directly to the y-pipe.

@@sdmc1972 oh man, that’s a bummer!
Brian. Have you been driving your mustang lately? I love the sound of it. Sounds mean
I drove it to work a couple times last week. I have an intake video to film on it, just been dragging my feet.
@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS you should make video. I'm sure me and alot would to see and hear the mustang again. Its a cool car.
Waiting for e Bronco off-road video 😁
Hopefully it will happen soon!
@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS you didn’t put the tyres for highway drives 😁
@@sajedb we put the on to crawl some malls!
@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS than film it .👍
It can be a ownership review .
Would love to have fun with my EVO< but I'm sure I'd be stuck ASAP
I have found that the less you care about a vehicle, the more impressive things it can do!
@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS if I had a spare EVO around I'd so go bombing around in it and doing off road shit.
at minute 02:58, after marking the territory, someone threw trash on the window of the red car...
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This was a fun one!
Good times
It really was!
