The Mitsubishi Montero Raider and Mighty Max were two distinct yet related pickup trucks offered by Mitsubishi Motors during the 1980s and early 1990s. The Montero Raider, introduced in 1983, was a rebadged version of the Dodge Ram 50, a compact pickup truck built by Mitsubishi and marketed by Dodge in the United States. The Montero Raider name aimed to capitalize on the growing popularity of the Montero SUV, also marketed in the US as the Dodge Ramcharger. It offered a compact size, economical fuel consumption, and a robust design, making it a popular choice for both personal and commercial use. The Montero Raider featured a 2.6-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission. It provided a comfortable ride and decent cargo capacity, making it a versatile vehicle for various tasks.

In 1987, Mitsubishi introduced the Mighty Max, a completely redesigned truck that replaced the Montero Raider. The Mighty Max retained the compact size and economical nature of its predecessor but offered a more modern and sophisticated design. It was available in both regular cab and extended cab configurations, with a choice of 2.6-liter or 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines and a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. The Mighty Max also came equipped with a variety of features including power steering, power brakes, and air conditioning, enhancing both comfort and convenience. While the Montero Raider catered to the budget-conscious consumer seeking a reliable workhorse, the Mighty Max focused on providing a more modern and refined experience, attracting a wider range of buyers seeking a comfortable and versatile compact pickup truck.
