The "End"eavor

I like my Endeavor, however I don't like the fact that the front window heats up when it is "hot" outside, even with the air on. I can also hear the wind through the sun roof when it is closed. Other then these simple issues I like to drive it often.

Not a Bad SUV for even the Truck Lover

I was pushed into purchasing an SUV after an auto accident that made it so that I could not get in and out of a truck on a daily basis. This vehicle has great cargo space and ground clearance with the bonus of great fuel mileage. The seats could be a little more comfy but overall I love my Endeavor.

Overall my '05 Limited Endeavor has been a pretty good vehicle, but the initial quality issues I encountered have killed my opinion of the brand. I had the thing into the shop eight times in the first couple months.. since then I've had no issues. It drives awesome.

The tires are horrible and I feel unsafe in the rain. The best mpg to date is 15.4, even on the highway. I wish there was a switch to turn of the daytime running lights when I'm just sitting in the car listening to the radio. The back seats don't fold completely flat. The rear passenger area should have a dome light. The dash texture just traps dirt and dust. The A/C vents cannot be individually switched off. There are no vents in the back seat. The gearshift indicators are not illuminated. If we have that little computer in the front, why not have an available OnsSar, GPS, or nav system available? Or estimated MPG calcular? Or optional satelite radio?

I'm up to 158K miles and once again, a Mitsubishi engine has not let me down! I've had it 6 years and put about 80K on it. I had the sunroof fixed last year (leaking) and a power steering pump put on about 2 years ago. I currently have water leaking into the driver's floor board and we have not been able to find the source. Probably haven't put more than $500 in parts/labor into it other than ordinary maintenance. (oil change/tires, brakes, etc...) I put a hitch on it and pulled trailer/bike 2000K and I would do it again tomorrow. I enjoyed the power at take-off and merging, hehe. I've never hesitated to drive it to work when co-workers called in for snowy roads. We were the only ones that got out of the mud soaked valley when all others got stuck. (People sat on that side of the road to watch the show :) ) If I could buy this car brand new (but with the more modern features of Bluetooth and aux jack) I would definitely consider it. But alas, it's time to move on.....
