I can't be more happy with my 2004 Endeavor. I researched both the Honda Pilot and the Toyota 4Runner / HIghlander. What I found was I can have a new SUV with a beautiful ride, sleek look and plenty of comforts AND not get killed in the pocket. The AWD system has been an added pleasure. The 315 Infinity system has a gorgeous sound. The ride is very smooth with minimal road noise. The warranty is out of this world. The look of the interior with the LCD displays and blue lit backgrounds are both futuristic and beautiful with a nice metal finish. Not having the 3rd row seat is a drawback for some. I don't need it. It also makes the 2nd seats roomier and provides nice cargo space. A lot of vehicle for the money!

These SUV's are for the people that want a SUV but feel comfort in driving a car. This vehicle is really nice and it is roomy. I had 3 children in the back seat and they still had plenty of room even with all of them in carseats. Definitely recommend to someone that is looking for an SUV.
fun & easy to drive

Nought this instead of the Highlander because of the warranty...it held up great when someone turned into the passenger side. More than enough space for 4 good sized adults cruising arount town or camping with friends.
solid alternative to standard SUVs

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.
best ever

Handles like a car, and has all the comfort of a luxury vehicle. Love the visibility. A pleasure to drive, and the AWD is 100% reliable in any weather.

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

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.
Happy Endeavor

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!:)
Just got it !!!

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.
Love my Endeavor

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.
Endeavour does it all!

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.
Fun SUV

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

The Endeavor's design and detail were clearly thought through thoroughly by the car designers. The designers were truly thinking about what the consumer would like to have in an automobile.
Amazing piece of equiptment in every way

The Mitsubishi Endeavor is thrilling to drive and the inside is a major treat all the way from the power seats/heated seats to the amazingly nice blue gauges and console. It is just simply unbeatable for the price and quality. Mitsubishi just is crushing other competitors with style and performance now adays. In my opinion Mitsubishi in general has some of the most kind and caring people of of course awesome cars. I'd reccomend an Endeavor to anyone.

I like it a lot - great on gas for an SUV. Sometimes not thrilled with a loose sounding noise from the engine when accelerating, and the interior has a ton of wind noise. Also having minor problem with the trim on the bumper (under the liftgate.) But overall a nice car. Depreciated WAY too fast though - unsure why.

All around great vehicle. Great in snow (AWD). Very repsonsive and sporty, but also absorbs the bumps in the road very well. I would buy this vehicle again.

I had a radiator leak that was repaired promptly. Towing was quick. Customer service was fast and courteous. I like the ride and feel of the interior. Any concerns I had are put to rest by a positive experience with this first repair.

I had a Mitsubishi Montero for 10 years. I decided to change to another Mitsubishi as the experience had been fine. I went to see different alternatives though and still decided to stay within Mitsubishi. I did not know about the Endeavor until I saw it in a Car Fair and when seating in front of the wheel and feeling the inside I said this is the SUV I want. I have enjoyed it so far. Good response, confortable, fast in highways, stable. However not an economic vehicle.
I would by another

I have the Endevor for 2 years and 40,000 miles. I love it. Roomy, reliable, great looking. Peppy. I am an outside salesman and am able to strech out and do my work in the back seat. I have had no problems with it and I enjoy driving it

The Endeavor is all that it is suppose to be, and more. Mileage could be a little better, however. I believe that it is one of the best values around. Low end torque is amazingly similar to my BMW 528i.

Only one draw back, between the windshield corners and the front doors, thereis a blind spot that you have to get use to and physically adjust to compensate. Other then that, it is a very well built vehicle. I would recomend the Endeaver to my friends and familly.

I have had nothing but excellent experiences with this vehicle! I live in snow country NY and my Endevor doesn't even know that it is there! I go all over my rugged terrain yard and I love how much room is available inside. This is a great feature with kids!
Love it

My 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor's ride is secure and stable. The road noise can be a little harsh, but I feel safe in this vehicle. The versatility has been useful, carrying everything from groceries to furniture. My only beef with the vehicle is the premium fuel requirement.

Overall I have had my Mitsubishi Endeavor now for about a year and have put about 15,000 miles on it. So far it has had no problems what so ever. I have been on many different trips, some distances of 700 miles. I also have been on many back roads and country areas and it still performs perfectly. The snow is nothing in this thing, you have no problems getting around. Only thing I wish was that the interior was a little nicer, such as an improved dash and seats. But overall I think its my favirote SUV under $40,000.

I have had a very good experience with the first 12,000 miles in my Mitsubishi Endeavor. It gets up to 19 mpg highway and 17 in town.

This has definitely been our favorite vehicle we've ever owned! We bought it brand new, in 2005, and it's still running well enough, in 2023! It's 18 years old and has a little over 209,000 miles on it! We take excellent care of our vehicles, so it's had few problems. It does leak a small amount of oil, and every few months, it idles low, but quickly stops acting up (usually within a few hours). We just had the EGR Valve cleaned out, since a code came up for it. We're hoping that fixes the low idling problem. We add a BG fuel additive, a few times a year, and keep up on maintenance, and it's still going! We live in Colorado, and it does fantastic in the snow, with Destination LE all weather tires. We just replace them, every 3-4 years, depending on use. We're babying it, at this point, so we no longer drive it on the freeway, because we're hoping to give it to our 18-year-old daughter. Our next vehicle will be a new Outlander! We so wish Mitsubishi still made Endeavors! There's no other vehicle like them! They are wide, but low to the ground, and are so roomy inside! We'll be SO sad when it dies on us! Best.Vehicle.Ever.

Owning an '05 Mitsubishi Endeavor has been a good experience so far. I enjoy the ride, overall look inside and out, and good visibility.
A Great Vehicle!

I love driving. Getting behind the wheel, blasting a great stereo, feeling real power when you press the accelerator at the turn of a green light, and knowing you won't tip over when you make a sharp turns. The Endeavor is perfect. It has all the power of a Porche (I know, it's sounds like an exaggeration, but just drive one...you'll see), the roominess of a bus (now there's the real exaggeration), the feel of a space ship, and the stereo system! Man, that stereo just simply rocks! It is clear, cool, easy to operate, has crisp tones, and great acoustics all around. Overall, this vehicle is a 100 on a 10-point scale. Getting an SUV? Drive this!
It was this or a Pilot...

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.
Good vehicle

I bought the Endeavor because I needed a safe and reliable car for my family. I have two small children and this car is perfect. It has a hugh amount of space in the back (enough to fit my double jogger with room to spare), and has all the amenities a family car should have. Front and side airbags, anti-lock brakes, DVD player, leather interior(which is great for those spills), it is so fun to drive and I really feel safe. I love this car!
