My favorite!
I was shopping for a Chevy Tahoe. I went to 5 different chevrolet dealers and was frustrated I could not find the color and options I wanted. I decided to go across the street to the Mitsubishi Dealer and look at the Montero and I saw my endeavour and fell in love with it! The interior is amazing. The 6 disc in dash is a great standard feature in the XLS. I have never been so pleased with a new car purchase. I would highly recommend this car!
Almost There....
It seems as if Mitsubishi designers included what they could for the price range...As a former Montero owner, I did not want a larger truck, but a bigger car that did not look like a station wagon and a mid-size truck that did not look like a mini-van. I think Mitsubishi has accomplished this. The AWD handles nicely in the rain and has "some" kick. It seems loud upon rapid acceleration. Overall I am pleased with my second Mitsubishi. I think with a few improvements (see below) they will have the endeavor nailed!! They are almost there!

I LOVE MY SUV EVEN WITH HIGH GAS PRICES
THIS IS A GREAT ALL AROUND VEHICLE THAT HAS BROUGHT ME MUCH JOY AND I REALLY AM LOVING IT. THIS VEHICLE HAS SUCH A GREAT DESIGN AND GREAT FEATURES THAT MAKE IT A JOY TO DRIVE. AND THE COMPLIMENTS THAT I HAVE RECEIVED FOR ON LOOKERS ARE JUST EXTREMELY EXTRODIONARY.
Better than the rest
Looked at all the competitive models in this price range and found this the best value for the dollar. Decent power, more distintive styling and features. Also looked at Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander and 4Runner.
LOVE IT
Im enjoying my purchase. This drives like a car, handles well and is unique on the road of the usual SUV's. It's roomy inside and has side airbags and the DVD keeps the kids quiet on long drives. CD system is great. I truly recommend you test drive this one. Was NOT overly impressed with the dealership after purchase.
Best Car I Have Ever Owned
I bought this car for my wife after buying a 2003 Outlander. I love everything about this car. The ride is similar to a big Audi or Mercedes and the acceleration is better than the Audi A4s I've owned in the past. Combine the performance with the great utility, luxury and safety and this car is in my opinion the best SUV on the market.
Underpriced & Overperforming
My '04 Endeavor XLS is a dream to drive. It's quiet, very comfortable and one of the nicest-looking SUVs on the road. I was blown away by the "Sportronic" transmission shifter and the sheer power of the vehicle. I'd recommend it in a heartbeat.
Endeavor
Good car, but have had some trouble with mine and is less than a month old, however the dealership has been on top of it and taken great care of me.
What's not to love
I went up and down automotive row in my town not really sure what car I wanted. This baby caught my eye and said drive me. I wasn't dissappointed. The ride was smooth, the interior very comfortable with well place instumentation, sharp exterior and a kick ass stereo to boot! I have never had people compliment my car before, but since this is a new model, I have had 4 strangers in the two weeks I had the car come up to me and compliment me on it. Being a new crossbreed viehicle, it really feels more like a car than the SUV I drove for the last 6 years. I really wanted the room of an SUV, but not the bumpy ride. The Endeavor satisfies this niche.
Getcha one.
Fairly good bargain, solid handeling, comfortable, stylish, adequate power, get's alot of 2nd looks from passerby's.
Great for the Family!
I love this vehicle! Interior is durable for my 2 small children, roomy for car seats. Back of the seats are plastic, no worrying about small footprint marks! We are a tall family and we have ample leg room! It is stylish and sporty. Drives like a car, smooth and plenty of power.
I'd buy it all over again!
My wife and I were in the market for an SUV, as my 00 Eclipse was ending its lease in June. I looked closely at the Explorer, but refused to support Ford after the 2 Lemon Cougars (1999 and 2000) that I've owned I saw an early advertisement for the Endeavor. Based on the photos and multimedia demos that I saw, I knew my wife would love it. A day after it came off of the truck, we visited our Mitsu dealer and test drove a Silver XLS. We bought it that night. I was amazed at the job the Mitsu pulled off. My wife really loved the deep dashboard and radio controls on the steering wheel. I really dig the styling, handling, and power.
OH WHAT FUN!!!
One day my husband and I went to "just look" at SUV's. The "just look" turned into "just buy" when we saw the Endeavor. We just stopped to look at the dealership and fell in love with the beautiful vehicle. The drive is so smooth. We love it! We also love all the compliments we get too!
This SUV is Fantastic!
I had never even heard of the Endeavor, but when the sales lady at Augusta Mitsubishi asked what I wanted, I just pointed! This SUV is fantastic! I don't like driving "trucks" because I feel out of control, so I never dreamed an SUV was for me. However, this doesn't handle like a truck. It drives like a car, very comfortable, very tight, and very "in control".
Replacement for 2002 Explorer
I got so sick of the stiff bumpy ride in my 2002 Explorer that I figured it was time to move onto something new and different and I found it! The Endeavor is like driving a Caddilac....nice smooth comfortable drive and takes the bumps like a car. Other then the recomendation to use Premium gas in this vehicle and just a bit smaller interior then the Explorer, you cannot go wrong. I have the XLS and the All Wheel Drive is great! Do not pass this one by when shopping....you cannot go wrong, this is a superb SUV with a carlike drive.
10s Are Not Given Lightly
What a good looking SUV. I'd call this the ideal commuter's SUV since it blends very well, most required attributes of typical truck based models, with the demands of the sport car, sedan enthusiast, while impressing a masculine buldgey line style that is not the common slim doorme too for the SUV masses. This vehicles is one of the best handling SUVs available, but a 10 in FUN requires a race car.
HAPPY_SUV
WE ONLY HAVE THIS XLS ENDEAVOR LESS THAN A MONTH AND SO FAR, MY WIFE AND SELF WERE ENJOYING EVERY MINUTE OF IT. ACCELERATION IS VERY GOOD, SOUND SYSTEM IS GREAT AND RIDE IS VERY COMFORTABLE SINCE IT RUNS LIKE A CAR.
This is a great car!
I was looking at the Honda Pilot, but this offered me the same, but at a better price. The interior is very roomy, especially for those with long legs, the sound system is great and is very comfortable driving, especially on long trips. I would recommend this car to everyone.
Love the Endeavor
I drive 40 miles round trip to work, city driving, highway, stop and go all the way. The endeavor has had quite a few recalls, all of which I was notified about and service was provided without problems. My endeavor has 90K on it now and I hate the thought of trading it although it would only be a on a 2011 model Endeavor. Unfortunately it is in the shop now. I don't have the final details but it appears to have transmission problems. The warranty says drivetrain coverage 10 years/100K miles. Fingers crossed.
THE THRILL OF DRIVING
CAN'T WAIT TO TAKE IT ON A ROAD TRIP. LOOKING FORWARD TO SHOWING IT OFF. I THINK IT IS BEST VEHICLE MITS HAS PUT OUT SINCE IT'S GOT INTO THE AMERICAN MARKET'
Drives like a car....
I've owned a Ford Explorer and a Jeep Grand Cherokee and really liked them both; however, this is a different kind of SUV. It drives soooooo much nicer than the SUVs designed for off roading. This car is simply a blast to drive. You can push it hard into turns, it brakes great and the transmission is great for curvy roads. If you want a SUV that drives great-- this is it. If you want an SUV that is great off-roading--buy something else
Nice Vehicle
Taking into consideration the discounted cost of the endeavor verses other SUVs, the unique style, quality, performannce and enjoyment to drive, you have a great combination for ownership.
ENDEVOR DREAM MACHINE
TAKE OFF FROM LINE WOW RESPONSE WOW ROOM AND HANDLING WOW VIEWING GREAT COLOR AWSOME TOTAL HAPPINES WITH MY NEW ENDEVOR
Joined The Club!
I purchased the 2004 Eddeavor in May of 2003 and for a month and a half I didn't see another one anywhere! In a town as big as Chicago that's unusual.I bought the Limited loaded! Black with saddle brown enterior. For a mid size SUV it handles extreamly well.Off road it has been an unexpected workhorse.Everywhere I go people stop me and ask if they can check it out. For a while I felt like I was in some kind of elite club. It's easy to keep clean,the sound system is nothing short of perfect.Breaking is on a dime.The suspension off road and on is great.I feel like I belong to special club.I'm one happy Endeavor owner!
Greate SUV
This is my second SUV and when we test drove it, just fell in love with it. The handling is very good. The engine is a V6 with with enough hp for its size. Lots of leg room in both front and back. I have to say it does drive very much like a car with a very smooth ride. This is truly a driving machine.
Built on Monday?
For years I had told myself that my next vehicle would be a Toyota. I loved the new 4Runner, but thought it wise to consider other vehicles. Considered the WRX wagon and the Endeavor. Wife and I were really impressed with this vehicle. It has great low end power and reasonable fuel economy for an SUV. The one we purchased ended up having door fit and hood fit problems. In addition, the sound system (which is great when working!) was not working properly. Things one wouldn't expect from a new vehicle. The dealership's service dept has made a "game saving" catch to promptly remedy all issues and we love the vehicle.
Very Good SUV
The 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor is an awesome SUV. It has great power. Some SUVs feel sluggish. Don't be suprised if you have to say goodbye to that term when your driving this truck!
Great Suprise
Bought used with 36K and now have 80K. Had no knowledge about it when we bought it, but enjoyed the test drive immensely. Have had absolutely no issues. Regular maintenance, including brakes at 75K and synthetic oil and she runs great. We have found that valves seem to click unless we use higher grade fuel. Lots of room, great OEM stereo, strong V6 have made our Endeavor an awesome SUV. Now looking for one for our daughter to take to college. This has been a very reliable vehicle
I LOVE IT
I WENT FROM DRIVING A SPORTS CAR TO A SPORTS UTILITY VEHICLE AND I LOVE IT. I CHOSE THE ENDEAVOR OVER MANY OTHER IN IT'S CLASS DUE TO PRICE, LOOK, AND RATINGS. IT HAS LOTS OF ROOM AND VERY SMOOTH DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.
Great Vehicle
I just traded in my Montero Sport Limited for Endeavor XLS. What a difference. This is a great vehicle. My only regret is not getting the Limited model.
Endeavor
I really like the look and handling of the Endeavor. However, there are a few standard features that I miss from previous vehicles. Heated mirrors. Auto locks at a certain speed for security reasons. Otherwise, it is a wonderful vehicle to own. Great on Gas! Plenty of cargo room.
Feel in love after test Drive
My wife and I feel in love with this vehicle on our test drive. We went to the dealership to drive the Subaru Forester and Outback Wagon. My wife was not very impressed with either of those vehicles, so we turned tot he Mitusbishi. She really liked the styling of the Outlander but i was a little leery of the 4 cylinder egine and the lack of horspower. So we test drove the Endeavor and can home a few days later with the Pearl White XLS. Just a great vehicle. I look forward to many years of happy returns.
Awesome ride
From the timew a test drove it, I loved it. It is a great ride. Comfortable interior with plenty of room. I have gotten a lot of compliments on the exterior and interior design. The performance I like as well, specially when taking a turn.
great car
the car has a lot of room and a good amount of power also fun to drive.
My first SUV!
After week one, and only have about 300 miles on it, the skies opened up and we got 6" of snow! I was like a kid in a candy store! I found the Endeavor's handling in the snow outstanding. Great visibilty. My son likes the DVD.
LOVE IT!!
I have only had the vehicle for a month and a half. I am trying to find something wrong with it but I just can't. The truck is solid as a rock and handles beautiful. I love the more radical look of it. So far I am extremely happy with my purchase.
Its great!!!!
The SUV is handling great.
Excellent vehicle for the money
The Endeavor is an SUV that rides like a car.
Enjoying my Endeavor.....
I am very happy with my new Endeavor, the handling is superb. I cannot believe the fit and finish, it is perfect. I would strongly recomend this vehicle to anyone interested in a SUV.
A Great Vehicle
I really love my new Endeavor! The looks are great and the features are outstanding. I did lots of shopping around (Highlander, Pilot, etc.) and settled on the Endeavor. I am very happy with my decision. It's an excellent value for the money. The color that I got (Dover White Pearl) was very difficult to locate.
Reality check on this model
Compared this SUV to the others expecially the Honda Pilot. Side by side the Endeavor looks and sounds more solid than the Pilot. Bigger stero knobs for easy control on the road, both heated seats, cheaper options and more base options. Found several Pilots at auto shows with busted seat controls.
Great alternative!
Only have the LTD 2WD for a week, however I am impressed with driving performance, handling, room, and comfort. For the price compared to the usual suspects (4runner, pathfinder, QX4, etc..)you get a lot of vehicle at lower pricing. (Would prefer RWD though and more horsepower-but a very fun crossover to drive). Compare it to the others when shopping. You will be glad you did!
Endeavor
As soon as I got into this vehicle to test drive, I fell in love with it. The interior design of my vehicle caught my attention first and once I fell in love with that the outside design appealed to me even more.
Awesome Smooth Powerful Ride!
I wasn't even considering this car! I had been researching the Honda CRV, and was sold (in my mind) that it was the best car for my needs. I test drove the CRV, the Hyundai Santa Fe, and at my wife's urging, the Mitsu SUV's: Outlander, Montero Sport, and Endeavor. The smooth, powerful, STABLE ride the Endeavor has is what sold me! Every time I climb into my Endeavor, I know I made the right decision. I've had it 2.5 months. I recently went back to the dealership,and noticed that all their LS models (like ours) were SOLD OUT! My wife and I love it so much, about a month ago, WE BOUGHT A SECOND ONE!
Super SUV
excellent, fun to drive, very reliable, quick, the best SUV I have ever owned....recomended highly!!!
High mileage
My mitsu now has 151K miles; dealer does regular maintenance. It's a tank! I have had 2 wrecks, 1 front, 1 back. Crushed in the trunk and back door of first car I hit. Later I backed into a Lexus and did lots of damage. I had no damage except scratches (most of which wiped off). When I drove to dealer service after 1st wreck, they checked it out and asked me if I was sure I even had a wreck. I did have to get a new (used) transmission around 120K, but that's all other than regular maintenance. I want to keep driving to at least 200K.
Excellent Value!
Bought my new 04' Endeavor for myself as a birthday present. I looked at a Durango, but it came only in an 8 cyl. and I didn't want a gas guzzler, but still pretty nice. Highly considered an 04' 4Runner, but Toyota has a habit of adding on options a consumer my not want, therefore raising the sticker anywhere from $1000-$3000 and out of my desired price range and budget. THEN, one day I drove the Endeavor LS FWD, and it drove like a car. Comparable ride to the 4Runner SR5, but about $4500.00 less with a better warranty, and tires for life. My wife fell in love with it on the first drive, and enjoyed the roomy feeling.
Endeavor
For the price of the lower model, LS, the consumer has many options already in the car. Fun to drive, very smooth on the road, especially at higher speeds. With its exterior lines, the new Endeavor gets plenty of head turns.
one hot suv
If you are looking for an suv this is the one you should be looking at. My husband and I looked at MANY suv's and nothing we found compared to this! The milage is very good for this type of vehicle! The ride is amazing and the sound system oh my is it great! There is amazing space for all 5 passengers and extremely comfortable. We both highly recomend this suv.
love this ride
I have owned my Endeavor for almost 2 years I love it. I would like a little more variety in option packages but it came nicely equiped. I think the site lines inside are 2nd to none and the ride is like a car.
