Yeah the transfer case is bloody low, not as bad as the auto ones though. It is a complete pain in the ass having a ramp angle the same as a lowered honda :(

The suzuki's are very light and even with the tire size difference they are pretty hard to keep up with. The MU looks good and some people can get them to go a long way.

It is worth it if you like it the wheel base being wider than the zuk means you will fit in the ruts. they are good fun tho
