89 Dodge Raider's can handle anything you put infront of them! With lockers front and rear, 4 body lift, 34x12.5 tires, the 3.0 V-6, 5 speed man. I could honestly leave jeeps behind. I sadly sold mine after joining the Army. For almost 5 years I did nothing in repairs other than replacing ripped off mirrors, and a fuel hose($10) torn out from abuse. I have owned allot of rigs over the years, Chevy K-5, Toyota PU, Izusu TroopII, Dodge Raider, Scout, Bronco and jeep. The Raider beat everything hands down on reliability. The cost of running was oil, fuel, lubes, etc. OK. I would definitly get another Raider!
