It's a Geo Tracker. Geo was a brand that GM made to make partnerships with and import foreign cars without "damaging" their brand. The Geo Tracker is a GM version of the Suzuki Samarai. With some modifications they're beasts off road.

    Hilarious, Geo vehicles far outlasted any crap branded by GM.

    Correct. However, a large portion of their fans are the type of people that always want to buy American. Honestly it makes sense from that standpoint. I remember everyone making fun of any Geo, especially the Tracker and the Metro. Side note, my friend had a Metro and that thing seemed to constantly be in the shop getting something fixed. I think that specific model was a dud.

    There are still hundreds of those trackers on the road today. Not a single tesla or 202x chevy Malibu etc made today will be on the road in 20 years. I see junk yards full of modern cars that look like they came from a dealership because the repairs for a new engine or transmission cost more than they are worth.

    I daily drive a 00 vw golf an 05 lexus that can run far into the future with me easily being able to maintain them
