1988 Dodge Raider review from North America
"A great deal for the money invested"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Carburetor went out, costing a pretty penny to replace.
Previous owner had to replace engine when working on carburetor, leaking anti-freeze into the engine.
General comments?
For 200,000+ this vehicle has been running great.
It is a great Off-Road vehicle.
While good for around town driving it is not meant for highway driving (it has trouble getting up to 70-85mph).
One of the toughest little trucks I have driven.
A real head turner, often mistaken for a Land Rover Defender 90 or older Range Rover.
A little underpowered and expensive to fix, but well worth it all.
