But how many MPG does a Raider get?

Dennis Mitsubishi of Columbus Ohio has scrapped a planned ad campaign that would have declared "jihad" on the US car market and which included free swords for kids on "Fatwa Fridays" after a considerable amount of protest. A spokesman said "this was simply an attempt at humor that fell short”. Gotcha.

The sensitive folks at Little Green (American) Footballs seem to find it most droll although some commenters seem to be upset that they've missed out on an unique retail shopping experience.

As the Mitsubishi website says "intimidation is more than skin deep"!
