I guess a better question would be. How many rolled Mitsubishi have lived to wheel again? ![[Linked Image]](http://pics.montypics.com/highmtndesert/2003-08-14/1060917222_img_1190.jpg)
Well on my way to becoming that eccentric old man in every town.(crazy as a s#@thouse rat) With a yard full of desireable old vehicles that tells you, Sorry they're not for sale..... Someday I'm going to fix them.

The consumer reports test was a joke. They put "outriggers" on the test truck that grossly changed the cog and put a LOT of weight outside the wheel track, both of which made it MUCH more likely to roll. The face on the test driver was fun to watch. It would almost roll over sitting still.
SWB's will have a lower polar moment, IOW, they swap ends easier, like an ice skater picking up speed in a spin by pulling their arms in.
Glad you walked away...

Well, after 21 years of driving three different Raiders, it finally happened. I hit a pothole on an exit ramp, then slid out on gravel, fishtailed, spun and hit a curb broadside and rolled over did a complete revolution before coming to rest on a light pole. I'm here to type this because I had my seatbelt on and the Raider roof is obviously strong enough to survive a rollover.
The sad part is I didn't have time to watch the inclinometer as it happened.
Anyone else ever roll a Raider?
Best,
