Mitsubishi Raider

I saw a commercial for this Mitsu Raider. 280 Hp with an optional V8. Might consider one of these because I dont like the new "redesigned" Sport Trac

i like the look of the Radier in the pic......

I think it's pretty good lookin.Better than the new ST imo.Wonder what the sticker is though??What kinda gas mileage also??

Nothing but a Dodge Dakota.

Frank, I can't blame you. The 2007 Trac is ugly.

Definitely can see the Dodge Dakota in that truck from the side view. Never have bought a Dodge truck, never will.

I'm seeing a little bit of everything in it. Honeycomb grill, Colorado fenders, Frontier bumper, Ranger hood, ST doors----Pontiac Firebird/Sunbird wheels? I don't think it looks better than our current STs, but it may look better than the new one.

The Raider doesn't look bad in that picture above; I saw one while passing a dealer and it looks overdone. I read a few reviews about the Dakota's V8 and it was said to be lack luster. I'm sure a few mods can bring it up to snuff, but Dodge is releasing a spiced up R/T version anyway. As they are, if the Dakota and Raider had much stronger engines they'd be pretty cool. From time to time I find myself admiring the lines of the new Dakota. As for the Raider, it looks okay, especially next to its hideous sister, the new Eclipse (what were they thinking?).
