1989 Dodge Raider review from Mexico
"If God were a SUV he'd be a 89 RAIDER!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Flat tire.
General comments?
An outstanding rig! I live in Mexico, Puerto Vallarta, and live on a jungle mountain where it rains a lot in the summer. Most unpaved roads are impassible due to mud. But this Raider is unbelievable in the mud! It goes where other rigs only dream.
We bought the Raider from a guy visiting Mexico and convinced him to sell it to me for $1,700. When I opened up the hood it looked mint! 4+4 never used! Not a dent or anything else wrong with it. WE SO SCORED! I am going to spare no cost upgrading it for extreme outback traveling.
