As many of you know I recently sold my dakota in favor of a more reliable and fuel efficient car. Ended up with an 2009 SX4 mostly because of the full time 4x4 and 30 mpg. While I know it won't be able to handle all the same terrain as my old truck it was able to handle the beach like a pro, maybe preformed even better than the old dakota. Anyway here are the results of a short beach cruise. I plan on lifting it two inches and adding full skid plates in the future, that should make it capable enough for anything I'm going to be doing. Enjoy!

nice, now lets see some flexing shots

 

^lol flex shots. dude that's awesome, how are you gonna lift it two inches?

 

There is a small company that makes a two inch lift and skid plates for it. From what I can tell it's just coil spacers. It is honestly a great little platform for lite trails. I'll be excited to see how far I can push the limits of this thing. So far it has taken all my challenges without missing a beat. Definitely had some strange looks from other guys out on the beach lol. I'll get some flex shots within the week though haha

that's insane, i can't wait, don't forget to come back an show us how it turns out

 

Do I have to be the first to say that thing is ghey....? I bet it is SUPER awesome on gas mileage and is hella cute..........., but I could never have a sack and drive that thing.... Unless it was like my wife's or something (not married btw.) I would rather get a Subaru like an outback or something, not a Prius with AWD.... haha

 

why would you even put your input if you have nothing nice to say.

 

Cause it's the internet. I just don't like it, sorry I don't cater to you all....

 

P.S. I said it was cute didn't I?

 

Look man I don't like your wheels but when you posted them up bragging about them I didn't rain on your parade or attack you for buying them. You're going to find that if you attack people in the manner you just have on this forum you will not be around long. The bottom line is that I chose this car because it gets 30 mpg, has an actual 4x4 drivetrain and can still handle all the off-roading I will throw at it. One day you will grow up and realize it isn't necessary to bad mouth other people in the manner you just have. Until then I wish you the best of luck. For everyone else who actually has intelligent thoughts carry on.
