1988 Dodge Raider review from North America
"A really good off-road vehicle, sluggish on the road, but that's to be expected"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The head gasket blew at 187,000 miles.
General comments?
This 4x4 kicks ass.
I out 4x4 any Jeep Wrangler any day, anytime, especially in Moab. The jeeps needed 4-low to get up Elephant Hill in Canyon-lands National Park, I was in 4-high with the stock 35x10.5 tires. They had a 4 inch lift and 35x12 tires. Can we say Ha Ha?
