Top Quality. Fun to drive. Great handling and road stability. I don't have any fears of 'tipping'. Would buy another one.

Favorite Features

well designed dash board; heated seats

Suggested Improvements

Headlights "on" display on dashboard why "91" octane recommended; only 87, 89, 93: have been using 89 for most part

Review

My 2004 Mitsbushi Endeavour is the most practical, all-around vehicle I have ever owned. It holds my greyhound, my granddaughter, a stroller and 2 other passengers with no proboems. I like the fact that the rear window works independently of the rear door. I especially like the upholstery - it is attractive and TOUGH! Overall, the best car I have ever owned.

Favorite Features

Suggested Improvements

Air conditioning vents are needed in the back of the storage console to reach rear passengers. The rear hatch door needs something to make it easier to shut securely - you have to SLAM it down to make it shut completely.

Review

We purchased our 2004 AWD Endeavor Limited for my wife to drive in November, 2004. We drove it from Kansas City to Atlanta and back at Christmas. I drove the whole way and never felt tired or uncomfortable. It is the perfect size for us inside and out. I liked it so much that I purchased an Endeavor for myself.

Favorite Features

Inside room and finishings. The look of the vehicle and it's power.

Suggested Improvements

Hide the muffler better and dress it up a little by adding a chrome tail pipe.

I drove it in deep snow and ice in Buffalo N.Y. My Endeavor is quiet comfortable, peppy, handles the road great. It turns heads.

Favorite Features

Sound system, dash design ,climate control, heated seats @ mirrors.

Review

And I chose the Endeavor. I can honestly say, I'll never second guess my decision either. The vehicle drives like a dream. I've driven the Pilot, Highlander, Trailblazer, Durango & Grand Cherokee(V8). All were wonderful, but only the Pilot & Endeavor drove like I wanted my wife's SUV to drive. The torque in this thing needs to be felt to be appreciated. It might not have seating for 7 or 8 people/children, but the 5 that do fit, do so comfortably. The steering is tight & responsive & the drive is stellar. If I had the funds, my wife & myself would be driving one. Everything seems solidly made & built. If I had to gripe about something, it would be the gas mileage on this capable engine.

Favorite Features

- Stereo system. I still can't believe its stock. - Dash Control System (AC, stereo, etc. etc.) - Power the transmission has. - All Wheel Drive - Anti-Lock Brakes(4-wheel discs) - Large glove boxes (Armrest) - Warranty - Overall drivability. I can't stress that enough. You must test drive one

Suggested Improvements

- Gas mileage - Why Premium unleaded only? - Driver-side door storage rubs up against the driver's leg if he/she is a large person. - Give the option, al-la Toyota Highlander, to have a 3rd row seat if so desired. - Daytime running lights - Auto door locks when you hit 15-20 MPH

Review

We've owned a Land Cruiser, 4-Runner, Blazer, Explorer and Expedition. The Endeavor is THE BEST! I think it's a well-kept secret. Nothing but praise for all of it...the ride's great! People actually ask us what kind of car it is and can't get over all that's included...especially the loooonnnng warranty!! Give it another year and you'll see more on the road...darn it!:)

Favorite Features

Lots of leg room. Rides like a car/living room.

Suggested Improvements

Larger cup holder (like the Jumbo ones at Circle K).

Review

Fun to drive and very solid. The added "stick shift" feature makes it even more exciting and is really great for control on ice and snow.

Favorite Features

Curb appeal and quality built. Very peppy v-6 and auxillery stick shift

Suggested Improvements

Center clock/compass needs to be brighter. Would like doors to auto lock when driving forward. Hide the muffler. It gives the appearance of a tin can and added as a second thought

I find my Endeavor to be cavernous inside, mid sized outside and a good looking reliable vehicle in between.

Favorite Features

Storage area, 3.8 ltr engine, looks.

Suggested Improvements

Maybe a little more noise insulation. (wind noise)

solid alternative to standard SUVs

Review

I did quite a bit of research before I decided to purchase my first SUV, and after test driving a few, I was afraid I would have to make the jump to the luxury SUVs when I decided to try the Mitsubishi Endeavor. This is a beautiful SUV with distinctive exterior and interior styling, and an excellent carlike ride and drive. It feels really solid -- being a bit longer and wider than the Honda Pilot - - and takes me everywhere (with its AWD) safely and securely. This trim level feels lush and spacious, and carries five adults and plenty of cargo comfortably. The Endeavor is a stylish, powerful alternative to the standard SUV box -- it's definitely worth a look.

Favorite Features

Sportronic automatic transmission with clutchless manual shift mode. Infinity 315-watt 6 CD in-dash stereo system. Steering wheel-based audio system controls. Ease in folding down second row of seats. Leather seating; heated front seats. Large power moonroof. Great warranties.

Suggested Improvements

Options for GPS/onboard concierge systems and side curtain air bags. Rear view camera.
