Raider with the corporate nose

I don't dig the corporate noses mitsubishis stuffin all their line-up with... the new eclipse, galant, endeavour, and now the raider. Being what ppl call a "tuner", I cant wait until someone clods on aftermarket goodies on the new truck. maybe it'd look better...

No, the new Eclipse looks AWESOME.

As for the Raider, correct me if I'm wrong but it's just a Dakota with a slightly different look. But it has the same engine, chassis, etc.

Re: Raider with the corporate nose

The new eclipses are actually starting to grow on me. I saw one with some realy sweet rims the other day and it actually looked nice. Would look way better if it had been lowered with tha factory kit.

You're right. It's basically a rebadged, restyled Dakota.

Except that it comes with the Mitsubishi warranty, which is waaay better than the one the Dakota comes with.

Yeah, but that didn't turn out to be a selling point, as we can see. I've seen very few Raiders on the road here in PA or anywhere for that matter ( and I drive alot). Of course, around here, people tend only to buy domestic trucks.

Haven't seen that many new Dakotas either...

Re: Raider with the corporate nose

Thats because they are priced about 4 grand more than a dakota and they DO NOT get the 10 year 100,000 mile power train warranty! What the hell was Mitsu thinking???????
