Really? i dont know much about them, i really like the way they look, probably the best of any small SUV. Most of the reading i found on them had outstanding reviews on the quality. i also love the Samurai styling, but @ 6'1-2 250 lbs, i dont know how comfy the trail riding will be. The raider has that same boxy style, but is just a little bit bigger.

Newbie here and Sammy owner with his two cents ...

I'm a little guy and do think a Sammy might be a tad scrunchy for someone over 6ft.
That aside, although NOT an auto expert I did luck into an 86 Tin Top Sammy about a year ago and then followed up with a gnarly accident. What impressed me is and was:
- I didn't die
- The vehicle was salvageable in a way that truly demonstrated to me why many people like to tinker with these cars.

I used to have a Pathfinder but left it at stock. I miss it dearly. My Sammy is now a bit of a "Frankenstein" but runs and looks fine.
