Love this SUV!

My wife and I purchased this SUV several weeks ago. So far we really love it. It's quiet, fast, handles like a luxury car (that's a good thing), and has a great transmission. The sound system is very good and I love the display in the dash. I can't believe Mitsubishi is not selling these things as fast as they can build them. The dealership was willing to give us 1% over invoice and 0" APR on the loan. It's incredible that such a great vehicle is discounted so much. My wife and I laughed all the way home. And we love that warranty! Plus it got a great rating in Consumer Reports. That's always a MUST!!

Great Ride and Handling for an SUV

I love the way it handles on curving roads. It is a very soft ride, but no swaying. It handles great and has tons of room for my wife's antique shopping. The transmission is great, being able to shift yourself is nice, especially when going down mountain roads you can put it in 2nd gear and not ride the brake. It does not have a top heavy feel. Overall Mitsubishi did it right.

This vehicle is Mitsubishi's best kept secret. It handles with ease in all types of weather & road conditions. We are quite comfortable traveling long distances, no back aches... no more leg pains! We are tall people and having the leg & head room plus comfy seating is simply awesome! I get exceptional gas mileage in town, averaging 19-24 and on the highway our best was 29 mpg! Can't beat that for this sized vehicle. The engine runs smooth, automatic shifts easily and steps right into passing gear when you need it!

Best Car I have ever owned

First off, this is an SUV that was ahead of its time. Instead of a truck like feel - Jeeps, Explorers, Tahoe etc, this nimble SUV drives like a car. Peppy, great acceleration, and the 6 cylinder engine gave much better gas mileage than the other larger SUV's. AWD system is flawless, just be sure as with all AWD vehicles to get all 4 replacement tires at the same time. I bought the car in 2006, ex wife put the first 90k milers on it. The only maintenance we had were brakes and the Tire Pressure Monitoring System. I still have the car, with 234,000 miles on it. Mechanically it is sound. Cosmetically there are a couple minor issues due to the long life of the vehicle. Honestly this vehicle has been darn near bullet proof.

Needs Paint...

My wife was pregnant and we were looking for an SUV. We must have gone everywhere and test driven every model made. When we test drove the Endever I was shocked to find how quiet it is. It was like driving the Acura or BMW. The one bad point is that I have had the vehicle repainted twice because they refuse to paint the whole thing. I found that the paint was bleaching in the sun. My wife's sister also had to have hers repainted as well, because of the same problem! The dealer is a pain to work with as well, so now I have a vehicle that paint does not match on. I am trying to fix the problem.

Performance has been great,comfort is very good, I have a very long torso and dont fit well in many cars and SUVs including Pathfinder. Could be a 9 or 10 with an adjustable up & Down Seat Fuel Economy could be better in light of premium only fuel. Great SUV drives like a car! The design is good the materials not as good (plastic interior) Exterior build great would be better than 5 if interior was better. Reliability has been great so far. Caution on the trans see below do the maintenance. I had been told to watch for trans issues. Probably would be eliminated with a bigger trans. EXT Design AWESOME A.W.D. and stability control Awesome 1st winter was very icy handled very well.

I am impressed with the performance, styling, and build of the new 2006 Endeavor. I was happy to consider another Mitsubishi after five years with a Montero and I was looking for better gas mileage, the Endeavor hits the 'sweet spot' - it's a great car/SUV, lots of fun to drive, extremely comfortable steady on the road, and has effortless acceleration. I highly recommend this vehicle to any mid-size SUV buyers and to anyone looking for great value for money - I know I'll enjoy this vehicle for years to come.

Terrible Idea

I've owned my Mitsubishi Endeavor for approximately five months now. It requires premium gas which I am not happy about and wasn't informed of when I purchased the vehicle. Already my air conditioner drain has clogged, flooded the front passenger floorboard, and because of a design flaw, the whole motor has to be taken out to get to the air conditioner. The dealership and the corporate office told me this is not covered under warranty. It is going to cost approximately $1,000 to correct a "design" flaw. Also, the paint is terrible and I have chips from touchless carwashes. I absolutely hate this vehicle. I wish I would have purchased an American made vehicle. Mitsubishi is not a customer oriented company!

The car has performed flawlessly since the get go and everyone I talk to says it'll go 200K easy. Those only problem I here of is a clogged A/C drain that backs up into the cab and its a $1,200 fix. A simple coat hanger or air gun up into the drain would do the trick people. Easiest car to maintain and cheap to fix.

I owned a Land Rover previous to this, and had to call AMA about 7 times in the winter and it had problems every 2 to 3 weeks. I needed a more reliable vehicle, and was ecstatic when I found a 3 year lease return 2006 Endeavor (so, only 1 previous owner!). I've had it for almost a year and it drives incredibly, and I've had NO problems with it so far. Everything works perfect, plus it is a beautiful, spacious, comfy ride. I couldn't be more thrilled with this vehicle! Even if something did go wrong, I'm still covered under the 100,000 km warranty. No worries!

I really shopped for a new SUV; it was down to a Honda, Jeep and the Mitsubishi Endeavor. I selected the Endeavor for its power, styling and "feel". It is a very fun SUV to drive compared to the other canidates. I am very satisfied with the Endeanvor, however it requires high preformance gas which I did not know until after reading the owners manual. I use my Endeavor as a real estate broker and my clients all seem to enjoy riding in it. I think the quality of the sound system needs to be upgraded and some of the electronics seem to be style dated. The exterior styling is "hot," the exceleration is excellent and the ride is very good.

I purchased this vehicle used from a dealership 3 months ago, and so far it has lived up to my expectations. It has plenty of power for mixed city/highway driving. The interior is very comfortable. The center information display is a nice feature, but sometimes I get weird readings. If the AC is on it will say the outside temperature is 35F when it is really about 80F. Also, sometimes the fuel economy gauge will lock up and say I am getting 65 MPG for an entire trip. (If only it were true.) My average gas mileage is actually 23 MPG. I bought my Endeavor for $5000 less than a comparable Honda Pilot or Nissan Pathfinder, and I think it was a good deal.

The room and comfort of my Endeavor from me driving it from when it had 4 miles to 158880 miles. First from Augusta GA, to Lexington SC to Germany on the Autobon to Killeen, Texas driving back and forth yearly thru Louisana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina. I am a very happy person because I know me and my wife put those miles on the car. I am the only owner and still riding strong. Thanks Mitsubishi Jerome Mincey

I just purchased this car and it makes me feel like a teenager again. I love that it has plenty of room, a commanding view of the road, and rides like a car. The engine has a lot of pep. The design of the exterior and interior with the blue dash lights give it a unique look. Now, all my friends want to ride in my car when we go places.

With a new baby on the way we needed to sell our Eclipse and get something with 4-doors. The Endeavor was perfect. It rides and drives like a sedan with the space and comfort of an SUV. It does not feel top-heavy like many AWD and 4WD vehicles do. It gets better gas mileage for me than what was stated on the sticker. It's perfect for someone who doesn't like the maneuverability of large SUVs but needs/wants more space than a sedan.

We bought ours used (18,000 miles) and we are thrilled with the vehicle. The 5yr/60,000 warranty means we still had more warranty on our "used" SUV than we would have had buying new for any other SUV. The Endeavor has a ton of space and handles the snow extremely well.

I am a true Mitsubishi owner. This is my second Mitsubishi SUV. I had a Montero Sport LIMITED and traded it for the Endeavor and could not be happier. The Endeavor is by far more of a smoother drive than the Montero, special when tracking pot holes. Very impressed with its acceleration and pickup. Also, you have the opportunity to adventure yourself with the Sport Mode by changing gears with its Standard alternative. Just a great buy and a pleasure to own.

A great vehicle that's much more nimble than its size appears - rides well on smooth streets as well as rough ones. Very good visibility and large front windshield is great - a person doesn't feel 'boxed' in. Nice dash and lighting. Good sound/stereo. Get's same mpg in town as similar AWD SUVs (15mpg) if you're light on the gas and stops/starts. Feels very roomy in front AND back seat. Has separate liftgate window (most other SUVs don't offer this). Huge sunroof is nice - allows better head room and feeling of openess. Comfortable leather seats. We live in a snowy area, and the AWD does GREAT in the snow - used it many times for ski trips! And of course, the 5yr/60K bumper-to-bumper warranty

Our Mitsubishi Endeavor is everything we expected it to be. The gas mileage has been consistent at about 19 mpg for combined city and highway. We did take a trip through the mountains and got almost 23 mpg. The seats are very supportive. The stereo is fabulous. The ride is very firm but soft at the same time. The handling is excellent for this type of vehicle. Had it almost two months now and there are no noises. The car is put together very nicelt!

My 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor is better than I had expected. It has excellent handiling and a nice ride. It did well in heavy snow, however the all season Bridgestone tires are not agreesive enough for heavy snow conditions. It provides an all around great driving experience!

I haved owned a Blazer, Trooper and Montero prior to buying my 2006 Endeaver. I have found the Endeaver to be the most fun to drive and user friendly of them all. It is extremely easy to move the seats front and back, and has it has the power needed when traveling throughout the state of Arizona with its varied terrain and altitudes. It is the first vehicle that has had all the features of a SUV with the ride and handling of a passenger car. I would recommend it to anyone shopping for a mid-size SUV.

I love my 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor. I have owned Lincolns, Cadallacs, and lots of other cars in the past, but this is the best driving vehicle I have ever owned. I have 56,000 miles on it and have never rotated or balanced the tires, and it still hits the road like a dream. The only time its has been in the shop is for oil changes.

This is my first SUV, and so far, I am very happy with it. The ride is ultra smooth, it handles well in snow (I'm in Denver), and has a "sleek" look to it. Also, the gas mileage is decent as I'm averaging 19/24 mpg. The only thing I wish was different was it had somewhat more horsepower (it has 225), as its acceleration is somewhat slow. Then again, with high gas prices, I would rather opt for the better gas mileage. All in all, the Endeavor is a solid buy.

My Endeavor gets 17 mpg around town and 22 on the higway. Its V6 engine pulls the Sierras with no problems at all. It is a solid vehicle and it is dependable. It has had very few reported call backs. With the seats folding flat, it does everything I need it to do and more. My wife now wants a second one for herself - I can't think of another car or SUV that can do what the Endeavor does for the same price/performance.
